Villa dedicates Barcelona victory to Liverpool keeper Reina

Barcelona striker David Villa has dedicated their Champions League victory over Manchester United to Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina.

Villa scored a sensational goal to give Barcelona a 3-1 lead at Wembley and end Alex Ferguson's hope of lifting a third European Cup.

Afterwards the 29-year-old dedicated his finish to the daughters of close pal Reina.

"I couldn't be happier," said Villa "It's a fantastic result for us in what is such an important stadium in our club's history.

"I dedicate it to all my family, my daughters and also Pepe Reina's, who are like my nieces."
