Someone actually uploaded the entire portion of Sounders versus Chivas onto YouTube.

Real really take the game to barca just like everyone wanted and they still moan about being 'dirty'. There was no problem with real madrids playing. Pepe's tackle on alves was on foot studs down and was more of his momentum that clattered into alves than anything.

Yes, that was the whole game. Every tackle was like that. How could I have missed it

How a Real Madrid fan would analyze the above picture:
"WOW this ref is terrible! How was Abidal not sent off for headbutting Khedira!"

Heh, according to Barca's president they got Fabregas for 29ME plus 10ME in variables. Poor Arsenal.

Sad to see madrid still playing so dirty even when they actually can play good football. Still, good game, see you in Camp Nou :D


lol.
I watched this as a completely neutral observer (as I did the last 5 classicos, i think) and both teams play dirty its not restricted to just one.
This time it was a lot better mainly because the ref denied that shit from the start ( and went a bit overboard with it , too)


I don't know what do you understand for neutral then, IMO Madrid players should have seen double the yellow cards they did, easily.

Refereeing is different in spain than england btw. Everyone knows that they allow much more aggression in the Premier League.

Also, agreed on Pepe shoul not play football, but some martial arts sport. This guy is seriously off in mental balance.

1. Khedira did not want to hit him, which you can see at his reaction immediately after he hit Abidal, he was shocked himself. As far as I saw the situation he was just focused on the ball.

2. Khedira barely touched him. The cleats just scratched him.

Wrong, i'm a qualified referee.

Barton's yellow was correct - acting in an aggressive or intimidatory manner.

Gervinho's red was correct - striking an opponent/teammate.

Song will get a red card for stamping on Barton when the FA review the evidence.


Gervinho should've been given a penalty when Joey Barton started messing around with him. The ball was still in play.

Oh yeah. What level do you referee at?
Because I watch "qualified referees" every week in the football league and lots of them are terrible.

yes because if he did Abidal would have a concussion right now.. you cannot go up with flying kicks like that whether it hit the player or not.. and besides even if they did "just scratch him" it hurts a fucking lot dude, not enough to knock you out but itll sting..

sooo dragging someone up by the collar (and hence provoking them) is only grounds for a yellow and throwing a palm out is red ? Ok I get the latter, but shouldnt the former be equally bad ?

I'll counter this by saying there are too many blind barcelona fans in here. Madrid were dominant last night, played what you keep calling the 'right way' and yet still moans.

Nobody is complaining about their good play, but about their fouls and dirty play.

Even Xabi Alonso kicked Alexis and then dived to the ground to try and fool the referee. That is oh so lame, and if it was a barça player like busquets or alves everyone would have cried for a week.

LoL.
But seriously, that was just Khedira being clumsy and too focussed on the ball, he would never go in like that intentionally.
