and btw, when will abidal be back? I know it is a lil too much to ask right after his surgery but... We are really short of CBs.. Abi can play there.. and gaby is simply a shadow of his old self..

as i said before..50-50 chance. and its tru..draw. haha. yeah...puyol seems injured again. damn.

we draw...but not lose yet. and traditionally..will bounce back after draw. the problem is...madrid oso often bounce back after draw. haha

what a game. 2 red card. so we got CDR nexr wednesday. neutral venue. game net over yet. but for next game..is an exit for CDR.

visca!

It's just my guess...

Yeah, the game was intense. Even Messi kicked the ball directly to crowds...

Match highlights

http://footballocks.net/index.php/3847/rea...a-highlights-3/

Mourinho really has some brain damage.
How was that not a foul by Albiol?
The guy choked Villa!!!

Look at this headline on goal.
"Jose Mourinho figures out Pep Guardiola all over again as Real Madrid finally give Barcelona something to worry about."

Playing at home with 3 defensive midfielders and celebrating a 1-1 draw?
They didn't close the gap at all on us and they didn't try to go for the win.

Im really sick and tired of hearing the press praise Mourinho all the time.

its clear. but yeah..its JM...what else shud we said. if he won..he claimed he was the special one. if he lose..he'll blame everyone. but it understandable....since only in la liga he met the toughest ever opponent. wherever he head his beloved real madrid to success...barca already wait at the end of the road. thats why u can JM sooooo serious during 2nd leg CL against spurs..taking note etc..eventho they already leading 4-nil. it is not because the pressure from white hart lane...but the pressure came from next match versus barca. and maybe that why oso madrid player onli score one in WHL..coz their head already in clasico and save energy for it.

1-1 consider win for madrid

hopefully we can win in the next 3 matches.

No official statement released by the club, but Pep has hinted in one of previous media conference that Abi may not feature for Barca again this season. A shame really. But I'm positive that even if we sell Milito this summer, we will not go for another CB. Fontas will definitely see more minutes next season, while Abi will also permanently be shifted to the center, and Adriano will take Abi's place as first choice LB. Damn Adriano has been really good covering for Abi

I wonder how can't you get use to it already? He's the Special One la. If he put up some Stoke-like tactic and win, everyone would still hail him as the tactical master As was last night, we can count how many Xabi Alonso touched the ball using our fingers, and he was supposedly their playmaker to engineer their counter attacks

And he led the media brainwash that Alves should have seen red card. Yes, it was penalty, but it was not a late challenge, and thus it was not a 2nd yellow card. We had our own penalty claim when Casillas did similar challenge on Villa earlier, and he was not even shown a yellow, we also didn't get the penalty. And Mou, unsurprisingly, ignored that

Anyway, the 8 point lead was preserved, and that can be considered a success for us.

+1. That's him

To be fair though his tactic won more chances than barca, and about the penalty it's certainly a mind game.

off topic :

miccy..what happen madridista web community? i can't find the one that u set up. we till looking more la liga team for upcoming local CL match. set up la real madrid team...EPL and serie A team too strong for us la

More chance? I think the number chances was quite balanced. We had Villa wasting his opportunity, and Messi, though he was heavily marked, still managed to get 2-3 shots in.

Most important is the remaining 3 games that we absolutely need to win!

mourinho ordered his midfield muscular advantage to distrupt barca possesion flow. one of the tactic, push down a player once he pass the ball. example, when iniesta pass ball to xavi, madrid player will foul him down...so xavi can't pass back the ball to iniesta which somehow i see it is distrupt tiki taka flow.

I saw Villa got disrupted few times when he tried to broken the off-side trap, even the referee don't give a damn that he tripped down.

wonderful messi. he can run past 3 player easily..

You can see clearly that Messi kicked the ball towards the crowds @5:20. It's hilarious that he's got the "muka tak bersalah" face after he kicked the ball, haha...

yup. that happened during the whole match especially by pepe and khedira.
it was plain disgusting. it is so sad that they have gone so low.

what really amazed me how they didn't get a card for that.
not even a foul!!!

Added on April 18, 2011, 4:09 pmmost of their chances came during the corners.

it is really sad that they are playing counter attack in their own home.
and to top it all off, they were celebrating like they won the match when in fact
they are still 8 points behind us in the title race.
