Sadly Messi's going to have his leg broken 2nd half, you watch!

Especially now they're a longer way behind. They were fine until they were behind like every other game. I'd take him off now. Even if in unusual circumstances, it means a defeat.

Vincent Vega

did Diarra get a whack of the ball in the face from the free kick too?

steelcityblues

This game will have at least one sending off in the second half - guarantee.

Higuain needs to come off. Benzema would offer much more in that side IMO.

eagle eye

Great goal but just a pity it had to come before halftime. Its been a great game but the result is pretty much certain now.

Warper

Obv Diarra should have walked but 2 brilliant goals. I actually fear for some of the Barca players in the second half esp. Messi as Real will now resort to kicking as per usual in the second half. Lets hope the thugs dont injure someone.

Slogger Jogger

Not a bad player that Dani Alves

Just caught the last ten minutes of that half.

Wow. Both goals were amazing.

Real are such a cynical team. The little Argentinian is murdering them and all they can do in response is hack him to the ground. Horrible!

Tricky forward taken out by defender shocker.

Madrid have too many ponces in their team.

You missed the first leg then?



I suppose you think this behaviour is OK?

Havermeyer

Alves goal was a deflection.

Struck it sweetly, but a deflection all the same.

doc_17

Some real scummy behaviour in this match. But then they can all be friends in the Spain team?!?!

Holy ****tttttt!!!!!!!!!!!! Alves you sexy man!!!!

Real had three golden chances to score early.

The Barca just went through the routine getting on top before a little Messi magic broke the deadlock.

How the ref can yellow card Messi and then not give a second yellow to Diarra is insane. Much worse tackle.

After the first goal Real were already in butcher mode.

Brain Stroking

If Barca score again inside the first 15 mins of the second half i fear the game will degenerate into another farce

Warper

Watch now how a Mourinho led team reacts in the second half when getting beaten. Their true colours will be out in force as they kick, kick and then kick some more. Personally i wouldnt mind seeing Messi being taken off for his safety but not a chance he will as he wouldnt let it happen.

daRobot

I can see Madrid concede another two or three trying to chase the game.

They're going to get thrashed.

5-1 my prediction, and sticking a fiver on it at 22/1

Well with this being tonight's match thread and you using the present continuous when you said...

The little Argentinian is murdering them and all they can do in response is hack him to the ground.

I insanely thought you were talking about today's game and the fouls on Messi which haven't really been anything you wouldn't expect and which I definitely wouldn't call 'horrible'

That's a cool picture though. Who's the little guy in the stripey jersey - he looks familiar.

Turtwig

There's a bit of inevitably about Barca games against top teams these days. The opposing team starts brightly, putting it up to them, then Barca slowly get on top and are clinical when they get their chances.

Barca pressing as a team and work ethic is very bloody impressive to say the least.

I thought that at first too but I'm not so sure now, seems like it was just the way the ball was spinning before he hit it.

They're playing football. What else should they be doing? :pac:

I give it about 10/15 minutes before the antics kick in.

Nah, the view from directly behind Alves shows it the clearest. Definitely looked like it got a touch.

Turtwig

Oh great here comes the conspiracy theory . . .

Ramos pulled Alves down there so what is he arguing about!

Ridiculous the way they charges after the ref!

Kylo Ren

El Clasico these days is more Desperate Housewives than football game.

Pepe with a sneaky look through his hands a la Bisquets there!

Is Benzema carrying a bit of timber?

Go on Ronaldo.

Now, watch Barca players fall over like dominos.

Ronaldo game on!

Turtwig

Give Pepe the benefit of the doubt I guess.
