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 | ||

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

La Liga gets super interesting :D 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 | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||

They only really show up in the big games. OOOO thats very Chelsea like xD Lose to Villa 1-0...beat Arsenal 6-0. Villa next game lose 4-1 at home to Stoke who haven't won away from home since August 2013 ^_^ | ||
