It was glorious. For all the nubs that think Ronaldo can't manoeuvre in tight spaces anymore (which apparently he's been doing a lot of since he's going to be a dad again :wink: ). The first two might have been tap ins but that last was pure class on his part :D

Missed the match, anyone know what happened to Casillas? and also what kind of tactics Madrid played with?

Ramos accidentally elbowed Casillas in the ribs. According to Ancelotti, it's not something serious though.

From what I could see, Real was running the familiar 4-2-3-1 tactic.

Jordan never fully understood basketball. He had the lowest basketball IQ of any NBA "superstar" in history.

Damn. Always our own that are hurting Casillas :/

Formation seems to have worked well. From what I hear Benzema was all over the place. Glad he shaved the other half of his head.

It is only a game. There is nothing to personalize...

And we did not play that bad. In fact we were the better side in first 30 mins and we missed 4 opportunuties in that period. If one of them were scored the result would be very different. Then personal faults from Eboue and Melo gifted Real Madrid 2 goals. After those 2 goals the team call off fighting.... That was not a kind of game Real Madrid dominated Galatasaray...

What makes me sad is : The team did not fight until the final whistle of the game. They call off fighting after the 53rd minute. I think that is a little bit disrespect to supporters. They barely watched CR7 and Benzema while they were scoring goals. It was tough to watch but I think they will bounce back at Besiktas derby this weekend...

Most likely but it was pretty funny when they showed it live, it looked like he was sleeping or maybe he was browsing this thread :wink:

gala has been playing uninspired since the start of the season. this is the problem with terim's teams he doesn't win with xs and os, he wins games with hoorahs and motivating the team as if they are playing for their lives but once that boost wears off his teams crash and burn. no wonder he never had continuous success at high level.

I thought I saw Bender playing. Maybe I saw wrong.

Edit, he came on at minute 64.

It was sad to see how easily Gala gave up and the type of defense they played. They are better than that.

Still not at 100% and Leverkusen cant replace him at all. He needs to be at 100% if they want to have success in CL.

Marseille fans have to be extremely happy heading into today's game...

The Gunners arrived in southern France without Santi Cazorla, Mikel Arteta, Lukas Podolski, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Tomas Rosicky, Yaya Sanogo, Abou Diaby and Nicklas Bendtner while top scorer Olivier Giroud is carrying a knock.
