Barcelona secured yet another Champions League final berth after a 1-1 draw in Camp Nou in the second leg of the semifinal was enough to ensure it overcame its old adversary Real Madrid 3-1 on aggregate.<\/p>\n

Talking to the press after the game Pedro said: \u201cI\u2019m full of joy. It\u2019s always tough to reach a Champions League final, and to have a match against a great team like Real Madrid has made things very difficult.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have great players, a superb team, and we are very pleased with the end result because it was very difficult\u201d.<\/p>\n

Pedro, who scored Barcelona\u2019s only goal on the night thanks to great work by Andres Iniesta, continued: \u201cI felt a great sense of joy when I scored. Andres Iniesta gave me a great pass, but in this game everyone gave a great level of input.<\/p>\n

\u201cHopefully we can win the final at Wembley, but we know it will be difficult because Manchester United have a great team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barcelona will face either Manchester United or Schalke in the final of the Champions League on Saturday, May 28.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
