Real Madrid (old thread)

[Metaphysical]

I thought you were going to be a dick about this match but thank god you aren't.

Pound for pound, Barcelona edges it but not by much. The only reason is that they are more consistent than Madrid and will always have better communication among their players. That shit has been in the making for over 10 years, generations in fact and you can never match it.

I am pissed about the result, so sad that we didn't trump Barca just for good measures. We had the chances, we had the game too but between Valdes being awesome, not paying for his mistakes and Benzema/Ronaldo missing golden chances, we didnt

while the ref did go incredibly easy on you guys (especially Khedira and Xabi) we were well below par and very lucky to come away with a 2-2 result. Benzema was fucking magnificent in everything but his finishing.

.. which proved to be crucial in the end. I don't give a toss about his magnificence if he doesn't score on 3-4 chances and against such crippled Barca team too.

 

[Metaphysical]

but he made both your goals...

 

[El Gato]

Pepe made the second goal, not Benzema.

 

[Hamzah]

benzema was excellent

 

[dalitis8]

Cuntish team...

In some cases it was the magnificence of Valdes , like the header that rebounded off the ground.. i was screaming off my chair goal
in 9 out of 10 cases this would have got in with ease..

Not when Victor Fucking Valdes is between the posts.

valdes is good at shot stopping and one v ones. but he is TERRIBLE at coming for crosses

Amd there was an example of that last night when a free-kick was whipped in and he missed it by a country mile

A few way-ward challenges and you become as bad a blonde man with a gun in Noway in the eyes of a Barcelona fan. Jeez you lot are such a bunch of overreacting pansies! Get a grip!

It's you lot who need to get a grip. Under Mourinho, all your side does is kick anything that moves in a Barca jersey then get outraged when you get pulled up for it. The likes of Ramos, Marcelo, Pepe and Carvalho ain't interested in playing football, just lashing out.

ref should have sent Khedira and Xabi off. Khedira for trying to kick Bilal's face off, and Xabi for making 567211673 fouls, at least 1468 of which deserved a yellow card.

the penalty incidents should have both been given.

Madrid got some unlucky calls with fouls not given for them around the box in the second half, but otherwise the ref wasn't too cruel to them.

Although I agree about the calls being uneven and some stupid cards were given/not given Khedira didn't try to kick Abidal's face off, he barely touched him if you look at the replay and the way Abidal reacted afterwards, but then again it was a dangerous tackle and should be carded by any means.

yeah, Abidal was like superhero... finding ball before he protects himself
but you have to look at Khedira´s reaction too, he knows best if he hit him hard, just watch his reaction
