Barcelona won European football's biggest prize for the fourth time on Saturday, beating Manchester United 3-1 in the final of the UEFA Champions League.

The Catalan club came to London's Wembley Stadium having also defeated the English side in the 2009 final, and took the lead through Pedro before Wayne Rooney made it 1-1 at halftime.
However, second-half strikes from world player of the year Lionel Messi and David Villa gave Pep Guardiola's team a double this season after also winning the Spanish league crown.

Barca clinched a third success against English clubs, having also beaten Arsenal in the 2006 final.
