Copa del Rey Final: Barcelona - Real Madrid (20/04/11)

I'm going to be watching Spurs v Arsenal, so I'll miss most of this.

I'm bored of these 2 games already. It is basically going to be the same as the other night...

No it won't be James. Real aren't at home this time, Barca if 1-0 up won't try settle either like on Saturday.

Fuck, I'll be watching Chelsea

Real will just try to defend constantly again though.

Ozil will play this time, I don't think they'll be just as defensive. Also the pitch won't be shit like last time

Real Madrid are going to SMASH them

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

I just love you so much I want to be you.

3-3
Barca win on pens
Ronaldo misses a penalty to win it in the 120th minute.

Fancy Madrid actually.

2-1.

Defensive my ass, all Barcelona did was backpassing for most of the game. Even if you call it defensive we were just as dangerous (if not more) than Barcelona.

75% ball possession is nothing when you don't do shit with it.

Corners:
Real Madrid 8-0 Barcelona

Shots on target:
Real madrid 6-5 Barcelona

Attacking passes:
Real Madrid 101-96 Barcelona

Defensive in the selection I mean. A lot of defensive choices were made. Also most of the chances were on the counter.

I wish Mourinho would gtf, Pellegrini was much better for Real imo.

I don't think Pellegrini should've been fired but hey, when Mourinho is available you take him.

Only if you want to go against all your traditions.

Then he'll get sacked eventually for not playing good enough football even though everyone knew it would be the case. Circus comes to mind.

Tradition is for the birds.

With the current format of the CL knockout stages it's unfortunately about just trying to win, Mourinho has done that elsewhere and is the first manager in lord knows how long to bring Madrid to semi finals. I like good football as much as anyone, but I don't get the constant bitching coming from old heads at Madrid.

Real Madrid is a club of dickheads, it's not surprising.

Pragmatism skewers romanticism on his great sword, and beheads his fallen foe. Lord Dena smiles maniacally at the sight.

I'm just really bored.

Sometimes spring break does that.

Do some quantum mechanics or read Nietzsche, or something.

Funnily enough I have a Nietzsche book I've been trying to get around to.


Ignoring the rest of the stuff I have to do as well.

Cruyff needs to keep his nose out these days, but he laid the foundations so fair enough.

Barca have to lose to them eventually, so I have a feeling this'll be the one.

They'll lose a CL game 1-0 after winning 22-3 in the first leg.

This isn't cricket.

Although Pep Guardiola had given the first team the day off on Monday, Puyol, Milito, Pinto, Abidal, Mascherano, Thiago and Bojan went to the Joan Gamper training ground on a voluntary basis.

Thiago

Puyol might be back for Wednesday, but Mascherano is back so it won't be as big a miss if he isn't.
