Morf

Do Bilbao have a lot of injuries or were they resting a lot of players?

gimmick

0-0 at the Montjuic. Piss poor game to be fair. I can see it following the usual pattern of Raul scoring early in the 2nd half and Robben to seal in with about 10 mins to go

Aye, brutal game. Setup as you say for Real to most likely snatch it.

redout

Thats the game most likely over.

1 - 0

Guti

Keeper !

redout

2 - 0

Raul adds a second only 4mins later.

Real have the gap down to four now.


Here is a surprise as Saviola makes an appearance.

HENRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GET THE FCUK IN. What a goal.

LuckyLloyd

Wow Henry. Wow.

eZe^

Alves is such a little dirty player, he's just so good though... :pac:

dreamers75

messi brilliant


2-0

Obviously Henry is not as good as he was in his Arsenal pomp but from what I've seen of him this season he seems to have improved greatly from last seasons performances. That said, I don't watch too much La Liga so maybe I've only seen his good games. Have rumours of his demise been exaggerated?

jester77

What a goal by Messi!!!

dreamers75

2-1

Forlan screamer


i love la liga

jester77

wow, Forlan... the quality of these goals :eek:

An Citeog

Forlan, what a goal!

2-1 now.

He's been excellent this season really, 16 goals and 7 assists in 30 appearances. Better season than any of the strikers playing for arsenal at the moment anyway.

The next time you are watching Super Sunday and they start giving you some rubbish about how the Premier League is the 'Best in the World' ignore them.

Amazing half of football.

An Citeog

Alves is the latest victim of Roberto Carlos syndrome!:D

Carlos was a good defender tho.

Mgoraf

2-2 now. Aguero witha very nice equaliser.

jaykay74

2-2, Barca starting to crack

jester77

go henry, should have been 3-2 the other way just before that!

LuckyLloyd

This is easily the best game of football that I have seen this season. Chance at one end followed by a chance at the other followed by a chance at the other followed by a...:)

True, quality all over... eh, is he giving a peno here?

Edit: 3-3, bit of confusion over that one!

jaykay74

LuckyLloyd

Forlan did really well to keep his concentration during that delay - great spotkick.

dreamers75

3-3

Mgoraf

Forlan scores! 3-3!

applehunter

jester77

4-3 Athletico... brilliant

dreamers75

:D:D:D

eZe^

F*ck my life.

LuckyLloyd

Ooohhhh! Puyol needed to be stronger there imo.

applehunter

Shocking defending all the way by Barca.

Will there be 1 more twist

LuckyLloyd

Wow, Henry nearly. And then madness from the Madrid keeper!!

LuckyLloyd

Best. Game. Ever.

jester77

wow, what a game. It's a shame this one couldn't have had the extra-time

eZe^

If Barca choke and don't win this league title, I'll actually castrate myself. FUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

There is a game of that quality almost every week

I feel absolutely ill after that. An amazing game, I thought at 3-2 Barca could have closed it out, and maintained the big 7 point gap.

I am furious with Etoo tonight. he was brutal. Absolute rubbish. 2 of Athletis goals game from him pissing away a good chance at the other end. Aside form that, he did absolutely fúck all.

All credit to Athletico, some great performances, not least from Forlan and Kun. I just hope they can be as potent in the Bernabeau at the weekend.

Ill:(

On a side note, what a game redout had. He was there

carlop

I really have to watch La Liga more often, that was brilliant!

God bless the hangover that restricted me to lying on the couch watching football for the day:D

V9

That was without a doubt the greatest game I have seen this season, top, top game, gwan Aguero ya daisy!

mike65

Facinating weekend again. Real for the title esp if they exit the CL early?

An Citeog

Barça seem to be really feeling the pressure at the moment. Both Eto'o and Messi have gone off the boil in the last few games and the defence is nothing short of shambolic. Even Xavi's performances have dropped lately. This was a must win game for Barça and with the gap down to 4 points and Madrid on a great run in the league, the title race is definitely wide open.

Next weekend could be huge for Barça. If they can beat Athletic Bilbao at home and Atletico manage to take points off Madrid at the Bernabeu, then they'll have that nice little cushion back. 4 points is nothing in La Liga, particularly with the form Barça are in and the fact that they still have to go to the Bernabeu.
