Madrid played great. They just missed too many chances. They can only blame themselves.

Barca was off form and really just had two great goals. It was barely enough.

A moral victory for Real.

Ozil was superb today, pretty much had his way with Abidal. 1 assist + a wicked long shot that hit the crossbar.

Apparently, Gerard Pique feels it's wrong to be putting such emphasis on refereeing decisions.

I mean, sure, they've spent the past week complaining about them even though they barely had a case, but now that Valencia has been screwed in a major way, things are back to normal, so it is once again uncool and "circus"-like to mention the refs. Because, you know, Barcelona are above that kind of thing.

Looks like Busquets might be genuinely hurt this time.

What is wrong with Barcelona in the league this year? Are they not taking their opponent's seriously this year? Was Busquets actually hurt?

Without Xavi, Iniesta and Villa, Pedro is a shell of his former self, Busquets is out and he's a critical player to Barca both defense and offense, Busquets and Inniesta are the 2 main resons for Barcelona's hish ball possession.
If all of that isn't enough Messi is having an awefull day.

You never wish a guy an injury but I admit that I'm not sad about that flopper Busquets getting injured. :roll:

You should've seen him today, he shoulders a player and pushes him out of the field, falls down, and the other player gets yellow carded :lol: Very talented player though.

He's a proper **** but he's likely the best holding midfielder out there.

Terrible tackle by Fabregas. That deserved a straight red.

A. Madrid got screwed a few times in this game. Fabregas should have been sent off. Falcao got called for offsides when he was clearly safe. What a tough loss for Atletico. They played well.
