Birdy was getting hate here for being Xavi out even after 3 good results.......My impression is that nobody complained after first leg, everyone is result-oriented, even Barca-fans.
My take is that Madrid were insanely defensive against City and were horrendous to watch but like I said, it was an efficient strategy by Ancelotti to get a result. Ofcourse, you guys were lucky at the Etihad but the gameplan was well executed by your defenders and midfielders.
I agree that Madrid fans shouldn't care when they just made it to a CL semi final. As a neutral, I'm happy that Madrid made it but the style of play was very ugly.
