I like this line ups
With Madrid attacking, it’s either a big win for our team or a big loss, unfortunately I don’t see the latter happening

True but for the price it's a good deal
Mascherano is a bench player, and he cost, what 20 million? Adriano is a bench player too, about 14 million? And in attack, we have to bench either Villa (40 million), Alexis (around 30 million) Cesc (around 30 million as well)… maybe Dani Alves, who was around 30 million as well.
5 million for a bench player of that quality, why not?

Uniform question
I know that Barcelona has those 2 road shirts. Why do they still wear the traditional blue and red for the road leg of this round of Copa del Rey? Is it just for the Classico?
by LEastCoastBears on Jan 25, 2012 10:24 PM CET reply actions
It's not home / away, it's 1st choice / 2nd choice
The home team is allowed to pick first. If the away team’s colors aren’t similar, they’ll choose their 1st choice colors. Since Madrid play in white, Barca can play in red and blue without any confusion, so they do. If Barca played, say, Manchester United away, they would go with their second choice uniform (Black this season) since MU plays in red.

Honestly
Real probably played their best football in any El Clasico under Mourinho in this half. They had like 6-7 scoring chances, we basically had one, yet we’re up by two.

might help fight against complacency in the future as well

Not sure about that
Saw too many of the same this season: Real Sociedad, Milan, Betis, etc

well, it would have been nice to crush Madrid
they will probably have more confidence now going into the possible Champ league meeting due to this 2nd half

That what everyone said after the Supercopa...
I still hold that Barca is a better squad and will win the league challenge as well.
that's true
but Barca missed the opportunity to really crush Madrid (or cause their locker room to implode even more)
hopefully Iniesta won’t be out for too long

who's to say this won't create more locker room discord.
if reports are true: players want to attack, Mourinhou wants to defend and counter. this game reinforces both sides. down 2-0 when attacking in first half, it didn’t work. but 0-2 later when pressing even more, so it did. each camp could conceivably entrench their position with the result. unlikely but possible.
Can't fault Pinto for any of the goals today
He actually made a couple great saves.

That Madrid would surround the ref and complain
after all the generosity he gave them on no card that should have been yellows (Diarra in the 1st half) and straight reds that were just yellow (Contrao in the 2nd), that is precisely why I hate Madrid.
what about Pepe?
Looked like the last man didn’t he!

oh there were more surely
just named the first two that came to mind. and that’s the point, he was so generous not to send anyone off he lost control of the match, it entirely benefited Madrid, and they go complain. Classless.

Well, there was a person here from there in the middle of that comeback
And it didn’t get messy in the least. I appreciate your point, though. I have no intentions of saying anything else.

Actually, they seem happy.
I only went over since I noticed one of them over here. Don’t worry, I wouldn’t be disrespectful.

My feed died in added time!
I was pressing refresh like a mad woman on the verge of a heart attack.
Somewhat lost in the second half craziness
was the fact that Thiago played very good and made some very nice plays. Iniesta will be sorely missed, but I’m confident Thiago can fill his shoes for the time being.

It’s not even that we didn’t go through. The matches are just an emotional roller coaster lol.

I think we all partially died of heart failure during that second half
Put up a good fight, as you should have in the Bernabeu, but could have won it easily.

I really hope u guys would stop with the pessimism at this point…we deserved to have won that match by half time…i lost count of how many of their players should have been sent off..
In the end losing iniesta and alexis for this sucked:| but what a time for Pedro to score(and hit form?) and that strike from Dani??a goal like that alone deserved qualification…
I unfortunately no longer doubt that the refs are either blind or trying everything possible to make sure Madrid win..but like our inspiring coach i refuse to go into it..besides the man did say Madrid will score and it would be a tight match:)
oh and for any madridstas reading this ‘karma is a bitches ain’t it?’ all that cheating and kicking is gonna come back to get ya:D
visca el barca!
Follow me on Twitter @InderMethil
I have to disagree with one point:
The refs are not in anyone’s pocket. Not Barca, not RM, not anyone. The goal was correctly disallowed in my view, but a biased referee doing “everything possible so that RM will win” would have allowed it.

There’s nothing official yet, but Pep says he thinks “we’ll lose Alexis for a couple of weeks”

voila
Well that is what happens. I am pessimistic, we dominate the game. i am optimistic, we make mistakes. Our team almost gave up in the end seeing Madrid fighting for the win. However, fate is on our side. Poor game from us today at home. Maybe because we were complacent ( well even Pep " The problem with this game is that we have already qualified and they are already out, and yet we still have to play"). We were not serious about this game. Maybe it is because we lost Iniesta before we settled into the game. But imo it is because of the former reason. Anyway, win is a win and Barcelona won, but it will be hard to face Madridista tomorrow because they were synonymous to football today.
