Los Blancos Lost …...again :(



The referee declared to end of the match, the scoring board showing two to nothing, but for which team? The confused Real Madrid players, Or the astonishing high class players of Barcelona. It was unfortunately for the better team, Barcelona. Even the worst Real Madrid pessimistic fans never expected the match to end goalless for Real Madrid. Real Madrid had an impressive record before their Saturday clash with Barca, winning all the home matches and scoring average of three goals per day. Apparently, all that was for nothing. Barcelona proved once again in Saturday Match that there are still better than Real Madrid .

Real madrid vs Fc barcelona 0-2 Full Highlights



The best team on the pitch was obviously Barcelona; the ball possession was 65% for for Barcalona. Although they didn't have any real chances in front t of Real Madrid goal, they managed to score the first goal from a lovely play from Xavi to Lionel Messi who put the ball nicely into Iker Casillas net. From their first chance, Barcelona leaded the game by one to null in the 32nd minutes. After Barcelona scored, Real Madrid were doing their best to get the equalizer, but unfortunately, all their chances lacked the magic finisher from players like Higuain and Ronaldo. The two of them didn’t were in the right shape, in fact it was their worst performance of the season. After many disappointing missed chances, the first half of the game finished. After ten minutes of beginning the second half, Barcelona scored its second. This time, it came from the rising young star, Pedro Rodríguez, who faced Iker Casillas alone front the goal. Again, the pass came from the spectacular play maker Xavi. After that, Real Madrid poorly tried to returned on game, but they didn’t try enough. The only player on Real Madrid side who had one of his best games was Iker Casillas. If it wasn’t for him, Messi could’ve scored hat-trick. Thanks to his spectacular saves, Real Madrid came out losing by two goals.




Barcelona now is leading the Spanish league with three points ahead of Real Madrid. With only seven more games left, it might be extremely hard if not impossible for Real Madrid to win the trophy this season. Because, even if the Real Madrid made it and equalized with Barcelona with number of points, Barcelona will still take the title. The rule in the Spanish league in the case of two teams having the same points, the title will go to the team who has won more on his opponent in the face to face matches, which mean Barcelona since they won two matches. But if there always even a tiny chance to win the title, then Real Madrid will not give up and continue to fight. Looking to the two teams remaining matches, they both have hard and easy matches. Now, all I care about is how Real Madrid will end the session. I want from Real Madrid to play as they are in seven finals and win each game with a breath taking performances, same kind of performance that we used to see , against teams like Sevilla FC and Atletico de Madrid.

The top players in the world will meet face to face...Barcelona v.s. Real Madrid



The most telented Players in the world are set to to compate face to face




Once again, a quick review and facts about tomorrow clash with Barcelona. In this post I’ll try to put some facts and number for both teams, especial the player of both teams. Although there are penalty of teams that a have long rivalry with each other, like chelseaand Manchester United in English league, or A C Milan with inter Milan in Italian League, tomorrow clash a has its own beauty. It will combine the best of the best players in the world. According to the latest FiFa’s list of the best players in the world, it consisted of 8 players from Barcelona and Real Madrid. No need to mention their names, the top two names in the list are, Lionel Messi, for being the best player in the world, behind him Ronaldo, the second best player in the world.



The question that has been roaming around now,is that, who is currently the best player in the soccer world? Last year, the title for the best player went to Messi, and the year before that it was for Cristiano Ronaldo. So who will have it this year? The question might not be answered tomorrow, but it will show each one of the player and their abilities. Who will have the upper hand for tomorrow’s match? Crisiano Ronaldo Or Lionel Messi? Just to be fair, Messi did overcome Ronaldo in some past occasions, like when they met in Champions league last year, also in the first Leg Clásico.





For Lionel Messi, he is having the season of his life, scoring 39 goals in all competition for Barcelona, most notably, his Super hat-trick, 4 goals in the Champions league match against Arsenal. He is the talk of the headlines around the world. Some players like the legendary Maradona, described Messi as the greatest soccer player of all time. Being only at age 22, Messi has so much to offer! On the other hand, the most expensive player in the world, Cristiano Ronaldo, with a record breaking transfer of 94 million Euros from Manchester United to Real Madrid, is having a wonderful session as well. Ronaldo scored a total of 27 goals of a total 25 matches he played for Real Madrid. In addition, he made many crucial assist to his team mates in many occasions. However, all this is nothing comparing to what Messi is showing now.





It is not only between these two players the rivalry will be, it also goes for the midfielders, defense and even the goal keepers. Tomorrow’s will be literally a war between the players to prove themselves as the best in the world. When Cristiano Ronaldo was asked in a press conference yester who is the best player, he or Messi. He answered, joking,” I’m taller, wider, older than messi…” but he then continued and admitted that the corrent form of Lionel Messi is definantly better than his form on the pitch. For me, I can’t deny, although I prefer Ronaldo on Messi, that messi now in his current games, is the best player in the world. I hope, like any Real Madrid fan hopes, is to see one hell of a match tomorrow, ending with Real Madrid winning the game.
Madrida, with the support of the crowded Real Madrid's fans, Real Madrid can take over Barcalona and contunure thier record as being unbeatable in the home land, 14 wins at homes this season.

El Clásico........ The Clash of a life time!!





It is without any doubt one of the most important games of this season. Millions of people will lock them down tomorrow at 4:00 Pm eastern time for the biggest clash in the European league, more known as El Clásico, between the six-title champion Barcelona against the Royal club, Real Madrid. It is the talk of all sport newspaper; it is the center of all the soccer’s fan. This match has a deferent taste from the others matches because of its importance in determining the league title winner. So far, the both team share the same number of points before the end of the league by eight rounds. They both have 77 points, which never happened in Spanish league that two team shared this much of point at this time of the league. Although players from both team have declared that this match couldn’t be decisive, but they admitted that is crucial for both team.




When Florentino Pérez spent 250 million euro out of Real Madrid treasury, is to build a team that can compete In both Spanish and European level. Tomorrow’s match will prove if ht emoney spent was paid off or not. We all remember the historic six-titles that Barcelona won the last year comparing to “ZERO” title for the Real Madrid. Also, Real Madrid’s fans can;’t forget the humiliating lost to Barcelona t the Bernabéu last year, 6 –2 when Madrid fans walked out of the stadium half way through the second half of the game. The time is now for Real Madrid to take its revenge back, and gaind the trust of their fans back.




The difference between Real Madrid last year and this year, is the players, coach and the sprit that they lacked for a long tim. Now Real Madrid have a solid defense, consisting of Alvaro Arbeloa, Albiol , and Sergio Ramos. Also two unstoppable strikers, Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo. Though Barcalona’s team didn’t change much from the last year team, except for Ibrahimovic, who will unfortunately will miss tomorrow’ match. Another thing that might changed is the performance of Barcelona, they are in a much better shape from what they were, scoring a total of 6 goal in Arsenal’s net in champions league is something can’t be looked over at easily.




If the disappointed exit of Real Madrid from the Champions league was Real Madrid’s worst nightmare this year, then there is only one way make that up, is to win the Clásico. Away from being important for Real Madrid to gain the leadership, it is also as important for Manuel Pellegrinito prove that he worth coaching the most expensive Club in the world. Failing to win the match would main the end for Pellegrini, Real Madrid’s coach.

Breaking all the records….and they just keep winning

El Derbi madrileño
Real Madrid Fans at the Santiago Bernabuo Stadium from the match against Atlitco Madrid




Real Madrid currently broke many of the clubs records in the Spanish League. They made their 11 consecutive win in the league, which is the best second half start for the team. Scoring at least 3 goals in each of these eleven games, which is another record they broke, when they won 9 games with more than 3 goals scored. Also, in the Europe as whole, Real Madrid currently, is the only club that have won all the matches played on its stadium. With nine games left on the league, Real Madrid competition heats up with its biggest rival- Barcelona. Before talking about one of the most anticipated events of the year, I’d like to discuss some general facts about the team and their recent won over Atlético Madrid, most commonly known as being El Derbi madrileño. The matches luckily ended with a late come back from Real Madrid to win the match 3 to 2. Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid highlights 3 - 2


First of all, let me discuss both teams’ performance in the first half. Atletco Madird opened the scoring with Antonio Reyes at the tenth minute. The goal was a master piece, the finisher from Antonio, and Aguero who assisted him beautifully. This was a shocking goal for Real Madrid, as they didn’t expect that they will score so early. On the other hand, is was a “slap” of awakens for Real Madrid. Real Madrid began the match, almost for the whole first half with a very poor performance. Especially their passes, almost most of the passes were not completed. They looked very confuse. There were no real chances for Real Madrid except of two, One for Higuain and the other for Cristiano Ronaldo, and unfortunately they didn’t use them wisely.


At the very beginning of the second half, Real Madrid FINALLY made their way back. Xabi Alonso brought the hope back to the Santiago Bernabuo Stadium with a beautiful play from a corner kick. After the first goal, Alvaro Arbeloa scored the second for Real Madrid. Also this time the assist came from Xabi Alonso who passed a long ball to Arbeloa. Arbeloa found himself in front the goal and did not hesitate to score the second for Real Madrid. Then the turn came to Higuain to score the third for Real Madrid after a mistaken poor from the defense of Atletco Madird who were very confused. After just five minutes from Higuain’s goal, Diego Forlan scored the second goal for Atletco Madird from a penalty kick. Atletco Madird looked like they had a chance to come back, but, they didn’t.



Among the three goals Real Madrid scored, Arbeloa’s goal was the best I believe. He really took his goal in a professional way as if it was Ronaldo. Also, Xabi Alonso played one of his best games in the league. One ironic fact is that the previuse match between the teams ended with the same score, 3 - 2 for Real Madrid.After this Dramatic derbi between Atlitco and Real Madrid. Real Madrid came out from the match with precious 3 points which returned them to the top of the Spanish league, sharing it with barcalona.
