I think Atletico playing in San Mames (Athletic stadium) will be very hard. Athletic is 4th position, 8 points above sevilla, and they are very strong at home (they won to Barcelona and draw to Real Madrid at home)

Well my last comment looks super dumb now trololo xD

The ref DID have balls of steel on the second half.

You can tell by Ramos attitude that was a pen, just look at his face. He knows it is. He would go apeshit if it wasn't and instead points at the other box, saying "this is red but the pen on CR wasn't?".

A bit sad as a football fan that Barça didn't go with Pedro and Alexis over Neymar and Cesc. Still happier because we
needed this win badly.

This win simply had to happen. La Liga gets super interesting :D

Benzema FFS, could have turned it into one sided stomp, instead he missed and missed and all we got in the second half is a one man show by the referee with the dubious penalty on Ronaldo and the not less dubious red and penalty against Ramos.


I don't think Benzema really is the one to blame tonight :/

Cesc had an off game but tactically he is relevant and Id rather start with iniesta upfront. Neymar was pretty poor and hasnt really earned his start, Pedro obviously better at the moment.

What was interesting was Marcelo's unwillingness to hit Neymar with those late nibbles he usually throws in classicos

You never know maybe that was a consideration, but my god Dani Alvez has a real miserable time because he wasnt tracking back much. Pedro wouldve been all over that shit

Good game. RM played well, and could have won this.

About the penalties.

Neymar should have had one in the first half, but seems like most people missed it.

Ronaldo is so close to the line you can't blame referee for that one.

Neymar looked really like a dive, but if you payed close attention you see Ramos's foot touches Neymar. It's a shitty rule with red card and penalty, and they should change it. But it's in the rules.

Iniestas penalty was for me the hardest one to judge. He tunneled Alonso and Alonso went in a bit stupid and Iniesta just falls on them. I would not mind referee letting that situation go.

Yea pretty much this.

Bale was pretty unlucky later on aswell, I think Pique caught him late, although again he wasnt going anywhere fouls a foul.

What I find ironic is that when the Ronaldo pen happened in the City game people cried bloody murder but now its karma ?

Thats about the most ridiculous logic anyone can present.

I think on the balance of it Barca deserved the win and micro analyzing the game isnt worth much

Adnan Janujaz's dad said that Janujaz will pick either Turkey or Kosova. I dont think its a good move for his career. Even though we have so many quality players in our team, we can't do shit because our players hates each other lol. He should choose England instead.

We only qualified for two big tournaments in the last 15 years, one of them WC 2002, where we played semi final, and Euro 2008, we played semi final again.

Turkey? lol?
Is he even eligible for Turkey?

"His father is Turkish, his mother is Kosovan and Albania, England, Kosovo, Belgium all want him to represent their country.


In the past I've read about him though, Turkey was never mentioned for whatever reason.

IMO Belgium would be the best choice for him, but that squad is so riddled with talent that it would be really difficult to break into the first team.

Great classico, neither side can really complain about the penalties because they evened out and the last one was a stonewall penalty.

Yeah i noticed it wasn't Neymar last night when watched it back. It was strange, wonder if he meant it, only he will know i guess. At least Pepe was actually on the floor for a reason now

Ronaldo and Ramos blaming the ref and weird conspiracy for their loss...

Not saying barca wouldn´t do the same but i hate that. What is the point? Why not say "it was an amazing game with 2 equally strong teams were one had that little bit more luck to win instead of a draw".

No teams who hate each other so much like Barca and Real do would ever say gg to the other

Yeah i know what your saying too Sharkie but it would be nice when the game was so good minus idiotic Ramos for Madrid players not to do the easy thing and say "Referee was a joke" when clearly (imo) he made one mistake which was very hard to see due to Ronaldo getting tackled outside the box then to fall down inside the box and get given a penalty for it. That for me was the only thing the referee did wrong last night. Which for a Clasico was probably the best refereeing in a long time?

By the way the most bizzare stat i heard last night was that "Tata" has the same record as Pep had in his first season in charge...wow xD

yeah they kept repeating that stat on Sky. The difference between the 2 is that Barca simply doesn't look as strong in all the games. They only really show up in the big games.
