Penal Madrid

[Barcadub]

Chances coming thick and fast now for Real.

Cross, header, goal has become Real Madrid's primary approach of attack.

 

[Barcadub]

Benzema with a huge header

Wow. 1-0

Cross, header, goal has become Real Madrid's primary approach of attack.

True dat.

 

[linetty]

Bale = Tello

 

[Luftstalag14]

True dat.

And since we are still vulnerable in the air (even with Mathieu) and that they have Ronaldo, Ramos, Benzema etc. who are pretty good at knocking in headers, I guess we must do our best to not allow them to cross so often from the wings.

Imo our defense is better than Real both at quality and depth. And in mid they have insane depth and quality nearly same. We are better in attack obviously. In short we have better team while Real has good depth in mid and attack and if they buy falcao too they won't have to worry about injuries. Depth is not much of a problem in attack with Munir almost ready for mid. If Rafinha and Roberto step up mid also no problem and samper also showing great promise.

 

[Barcadub]

Oohhhhh Cordoba should have equalised

 

[linetty]

They're a threat only from corners and crosses

LOL at Benzema scoring. Madrid press have been crucifying him and calling for Falcao this week but he shut them up.

Better for us. This will be his 1 goal in the next 10 games. Then the media cry will start again.

 

[Barcadub]

At 1-0 there is always hope, if Real get the second it's clearly all over .

 

[te amo barca]

Cordoba are a nice team, good possesion - no bus tactics

 

[Sumlit]

All that money and every RM attack ends up either with a low percentage longshot or a cross into the box. Never fails.

Also, RM looks like they're playing a 4-4-2 to accommodate James and as a consequence both Ronaldo and James look uncomfortable.

 

[linetty]

RM looks shitty so far, I'm liking it

 

[CuleLife4Life]

Got lucky with the header. They haven't been playing that great at all and the team looks confused.
