Lliga | Round 31: FC Barcelona - Real Madrid 1-2

[Flavia]

If the Cruyff mosaic alone doesn't deeply motivate every singly one of them then I don't know what will. I really expect them to give it their all and to stay sharp and focused for the entire ninety minutes. Seeing any signs of our "complacency syndrome (TM)" in this game would be extremely disappointing...


... except in the event we're up by a "manita" at half-time, that is.

Messi, Suarez, Alves and Masch might be a bit tired. I really don't like this is right after they had to cross the atlantic and play 2 nt matches. And it's football, anything can happen.

I feel this match will be like last season where the score was 2-1 ?
if RM want a revenge, i dont think they can win..mayb jst a draw as their best revenge

 

[barcafan161]

win it for Cruyff

The gap between us and madrid takes some of the pressure off, but i am nervous because this marks the beginning of "that" part of the season and real really have nothing to hold back for, on the contrary.

Tired or not, this will be a lot more tricky than some expect. But hey, i trust the boys will be focused and make the most of it.

I expect a cautious game from us, similar to the 1st leg, focusing on control. Anything else, like an offensive frenzy for Cruiff would be a terrible mistake.

I think Zidane will go for Casemiro in midfield and leave out Isco/James. Everyone would understand that - even their board I think, when our victory in the first Clasico was that big partly because they had no balance in the team. Plus even their fans want him on the pitch this time (last time they wanted James). It will put them in a better position, but I still hope and think we will win

And the fans (accordring to AS) also wants Varane to start over Pepe - but maybe he can't because of a minor injury.

 

[instinct]

Varane injured according to Sport.

 

[ThwiX]

Don't believe it before I see it. Mind games, just like Ramos and Marcelo.

 

[vlad]

im not so sure what they can do with that "mind games" if varane is injured or ramos, ok, marcelo is maybe their best player



edit: maybe zidane is playing mind games when he say that he will attack barca high on the pitch, dont know, nobody press better than barcelona, real can press, but they do not have systematic pressing like barca, and after 45 minutes of pressing, they will be dead tired, like all teams who try that against barca, it will be interesting to see real approach from start of the match. (guys, sorry for my english)

 

[hardyboy]

Varane is ruled out according to SPORT..

 

[ThwiX]

Seems like Varane is indeed out. We get to see classic Pepe-Ramos pairing again then.

 

[hardyboy]

Official : Varane is not included in their squad.

Madrid will be hungry to win this game, we have to somewhat match that hunger. I'm afraid there will be complacency in our part seeing that we are ahead by 10 pts of them.

ıdk why peoples afraid of this game..
no need to afraid from rich fucktards team ..
barca is barca, and again will kick their rich vicinity asses lol ..

Messi, Suarez, Alves and Masch might be a bit tired. I really don't like this is right after they had to cross the atlantic and play 2 nt matches. And it's football, anything can happen.

[lmcr17]

[jairzinho]

2-0 with Saurez bagging a brace and making a complete fool of Sergio Ramos.
