Very bizarre why Madrid didn't foul at the end or park the bus (even though they played better than Barca being down a man, much like the second clasico last year).

Quite shocking from Zidane as well

Ronaldo got hit twice in the area, no penalty. Ramos got expelled with a straight red for a foul that wasn't for yellow. Those errors decided the game.
Was joking about the Rolex and briefcase though . . . :D

What about Marcelo and Casemiro not being sent off?
yes the ref missed a fringe penaldo on penaldo, but he kept casemiro and marcelo in. These are limit mistakes and they even out. Good point Canyonero
Ramos got expelled rightfully tbh, that tackle was an obvious red: 2 legs up, initiate contact, no ball intention. Right out of the manual.


Messi played well, no question about that. Barça's players knew they were 12 for that game, otherwise no way would foul Ronaldo in the area like that.
messi played well, but not great imo. that miss was :lmao penaldo matched him too :lol


Barca has the Copa del Rey final against Alaves, and, as of right now, is 1st in La Liga. "guaranteed they won't win anything". :lol

Also :lmao at putting excuses for Madrid when Neymar didn't play because of some Florentino shady shit. :lol

You sound like a diehard Madrid fan son, I understand the bitterness though. Getting cucked by GOD at, literally, the last second of the game must be tough. :lol

Barcelona has a game in plus so that 1st seed isn't worth much.


dfens (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=24674) becoming a Real fan after Real roobed his team on the CL. Where does that shit rank among the biggest cucks in the history of Spurs talk? :lol

lmao being a die hard madrid fan, rent free son. And fyi I'm not a bayern fan at all, I actually heavily dislike them as they are stockpiling too much German talent without developing it properly. The only team I care for is Germany.
weak trolling tbh :sleep


Have fun scoring against Juventus who are pace on to concede the least amount of goals in CL history.
He's the GOAT.

let's see if they both reach the finals, monaco might have enough athleticism for an upset and atletico are a top team.


One important screenshot:

http://i67.tinypic.com/hw9tmt.jpg

Why are 10-men Madrid committing 6 men forward in stoppage time? Did someone tell them that a draw basically wins them the Liga title?

nigga wanted to win, knowing that barcelona are mentally weak, not a bad bet tbh, might've payed off in 70% of the chances, that roberto run was a statistical outlier.





Imo the best part of the game was this :lol:lol
https://anonimag.es/i/nigga_in_actiona6002.gif
classic real madrid defending, no prisoners taken, "the ball passes but you don't" tackling, right from the franco era football :lol




Btw, I just love how everybody in this thread keeps crying about the fucking refs when they did an equitable job. Y'all niggas are EXACTLY the reason for which big teams get all the calls, because you are always bitching for your team to get ALL the fucking calls, thus instead of normal refereeing we get this idiotic favors system, where equitability is the best possible outcome (same as in the NBA).

[lefty]

Because Barca never plays dirty :lol

[140]

lucky win for barcelona ... nothing special about this game, besides barca fan celebrating a meaningless win tbh.
A simple reality check will show real probably winning both la liga and the UCL, and that midget might not even qualify to wc'18 tbh.


lol son, I was just saying what I think, I honestly don't give a fuck. Barcelona luckily beat an injured real madrid and still it's almost guaranteed they won't win anything this season, it's a sad state of things given their talent imo.

Tbh with your reply I think you're the one that's a bit bitter, but I'd be bitter as fuck too if my NT would fail to qualify(!!!) to a world cup with misty on the roster. TBH. #midgetlivesmatter


He's still top 5 no matter what happens imo, he is just too talented. But if he won't go to '18 then he'll greatly outchoke cruyff, something which I didn't think was possible. It'd be THE greatest choke in the history of all sports imo. I guess choking is a after all a habit.

son what's the name of that athlete in your sig tbh? he looks like a product of advanced sports nutrition tbh.


GOAT natural talent yes, but he is far from being the GOAT tbh. lacks the required leadership, lacks the signature world cup games. many chokes. I just don't see it tbh.
And in this era his rival is penaldo ffs, of course he has no rival :lol It just shows you that we have a weak era, weakened by the greed of the big clubs to stockpile but not develop all the talent and by the greed of the federations to give all possible whistles to the big teams. In 25 years of watching this game I've never seen more biased officiating and diving :depressed So putting 2 and 2 together we can see that missi truly dominates only in his barca role, not when he see adversity. He doesn't have zidane/maradona/pele tournaments where he goes mental and just DOMINATES everything, nor does he inspire teammates or even play defense. Just statpadding on a weak era with, always having two top 5 players for his career (ronaldinho, xavi, iniesta, neymar, suarez) ... I rest my case tbh.
:wow:wow dfens showing absolutely no fucking mercy :wow:wow

good job tbh son :tu

[140]

That ref got a solid gold Rolex and briefcase from Barça. :toast


How can anyone be considered GOAT when he was non-existant in the biggest sporting event in the world.

Laughable.


clown wins el clasico, yet they say he is the greatest, where was he in the CL when they needed score?


:lol Stegen and Roberto having to carry Messi 11 vs 10 SMH
More truth nukes :lol

[140]

Nice of misty to show up for a league game though, props tbh. Baby steps etc...

EDIT: or should I say midget steps? :lol

[dfens]

:wow:wow dfens showing absolutely no fucking mercy :wow:wow

good job tbh son :tu

given all this ever increasing amount of dick slurping of misty, I sincerely fear that when the next misty comes around in 10-15 years and I'll be in my 50s I might die of a heart attack just by listening to the god damn commentary.

Seriously, besides an amazing career at barcelona (stacked top 3 team for his entire life, with PERFECT fit players for his style) at the national level (with another strong team) he is a mess:
no world cup
no copa
hasn't scored ONE fucking goal in a final for his country
hasn't beaten ONE fucking top 10 team on the pitch in a tournament for his country. not ONE underdog win. ONE.
doesn't have ONE NT tournament where he straight up thoroughly dominated start to finish. ONE.
tons of chokes.

These niggas need to give me a fucking break with the GOAT talk. You can't be the GOAT just by collecting trophies at a top 3 team for your career. In all honesty Lebron has a stronger case for the GOAT than missi does. :lol

[TDMVPDPOY]

messi with his usual bs against a taller player then him

I'm glad that elbow connected to the kents face...just because ur a midget and stand only upto a players elbow, doesn't give u the right to clocked ur head back to flop for a foul, or when competing in the air, he knows he cant win in the air so he clocks his head back and makes it look like he gets elbow or arm to the face as usual....

classic real madrid defending, no prisoners taken, "the ball passes but you don't" tackling, right from the franco era football :lol

This tackle of Ramos is only worth one match in the eyes of the RFEF... I'm no homer but that is absolutely ridiculous. This a tackle that could have resulted in a career-threatening injury had he not thought of jumping in the air.

This is worth three matches minimum in the Premier League

Just to add some salt to the wound, they also fined him €600

[Bynumite]

Ramos came through in the clutch multiple times as we all know but for every clutch play he makes there's an equally bonehead defensive play that shouldn't be happening at this level and ends up costing Real points and wins. That challenge on that part of the pitch was ridiculous and something you only do to avoid a certain goal.

Also, Zidane is an idiot for not parking the bus after a late equalizer, down one player with 5 games on the schedule. Again, i cannot comprehend so much incompetence at this level.

[DAF86]

lmao being a die hard madrid fan, rent free son. And fyi I'm not a bayern fan at all, I actually heavily dislike them as they are stockpiling too much German talent without developing it properly. The only team I care for is Germany.

Fyi I supported bayern (if it wasn't obvious).

Do you dislike them, or do you support them? Which one is it son? :lol

[Venti Quattro]

Also, Zidane is an idiot for not parking the bus after a late equalizer, down one player with 5 games on the schedule. Again, i cannot comprehend so much incompetence at this level.

Pushing for a third goal and playing a high line, when a draw wins your squad the title, is unforgivable. The players had a chance to undo all of Zidane's tactical blunders in the end but Sergi Roberto just ran past Modric and Marcelo.

Marcelo was close enough so I don't get why he didn't just push Roberto to the ground or whatever. Carvajal also had a chance to foul Andre Gomes but was too slow and was caught trying to catch up to Jordi Alba's overlapping run.

Imo, Mateo Kovacic is the biggest sinner of them all. He had fresher legs but he was jogging back on defence. Again, unforgivable. Had he caught up with the rest of his mates, he could have fouled Messi. Toni Kroos comes in close second for leaving Messi and giving him space to run, while Modric is third for not marking Messi while running back to defend the counter.

Simply put, Zidane got too greedy and Madrid paid for it.

[Canyonero]

:lmao Ramos banned for only one game.

Madrid tried to win the game with 10, kudos for that. They didn't need to win, a draw also achieved with 10 was a good result.

Some other "infinitamente mejor" club, to quote Piqué, would pack all 10 in the area after losing 1:2 to avoid a goleada.

Neither Madrid nor Barça can win all games till the end, that's hard to do in La Liga (without help from the refs). Some teams fight to avoid relegation, others to get into Europa League and others fight for prize money.

Atleti lost from the yellow submarine at home.

That was incredibly dumb though, a draw would have sealed La Liga for Real Madrid and they would then be able to rest players and prepare for the CL. Now, they need to go all out for the rest of the season to fight for both trophies. They played well a man down, but their over zealousness has the potential to cost them the season. Obviously going up against anyone besides the greatest player in the world I'm sure Madrid would have gotten a point out of the match, but you can't play foolish being down a man.

Very very puzzling decision by Zidane.

Was also shocked at how mediocre Modric and Kroos were considering how immense they were in the earlier matchup this season. But then again, maybe fatigue is getting to them.

This is true, Portugal looked better than ever without him in the Euro Finals, and Madrid actually shares the ball a lot more when Penaldo is benched since he isn't jacking up horrible shots all match and missing sitters.

On the upside with Bale injured should that now allow for more minutes from Morata and Isco?

[dunkman]

Well, should have lost the game, Zidane would be criticized by absolutely everyone for fielding the second team.

Sometimes you can't get the results, if the opponent plays with 11 and there aren't strange penalties, but at least you have to play well.

I always remember how Capello got sacked after winning La Liga. Madrid fans just couldn't stand his defensive counter attacking style.

Should be. How Isco and Morata aren't starters is beyond me. Madrid should sell Bale and make Benzema the backup for Morata. Let Isco do his thing as a "10" ahead of a 3-man line of Modric-Kroos-Kovacic.

Zidane needs to stop the BBC thing, it's not working anymore.

Everyone has talked to me about those final Ligas in Tenerife. And it's true that Valdano is a Madridista, but I am more, as I spent 25 years of my life at Real Madrid and I still follow them despite being here now at Malaga."

You can click the link to read more of his comments somewhat to the contrary, but can't imagine being a Malaga player and reading that.

On top of that Malaga's president referred Barça as "the scum of Catalonia" and said the club "will not smell the championship."

Malaga have a better reason to throw that fixture. If they lose to Madrid on the final matchday, that will swing the title in favour of Madrid and Malaga will end up receiving money from the performance add-ons from Isco's transfer. If I remember it correctly, it's €1 million. Chump change for a club like Madrid side but it's €1 million Malaga would gladly run away with

I think both teams have around same budget. But $5M extra here, $10M extra there and what's left isn't enough for a better bench. In Madrid second team forwards (Lucas Vásquez, Ascencio and Morata) and attacking mid-fielders (James, Isco) aren't far away from first team players.

One thing is the value of the players, yes Madrid's roster is the most valuable. Salaries are a different story, and Barça's could be the highest one, but Madrid isn't far away. The problem is distribution, in Barça first team players earn much more than second team players, while in Madrid there are several second team players with high salaries (James, Morata, Isco).

Alex Ferguson had no idea how to use Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid made better use of his talents. Now the game vs Sevilla, the goal with unset wall, two woodwork shots and some great saves by Navas, that game could have ended differently.

Since Barça has the tie breaker, Madrid can't drop more than 2 points to be a champion. Most probably will win both games, though. But, it's football, you never know.

Yes he was an elite player, but +1 goal x game players are very few, while you can find a lot of elite defensive or attacking mid-fielders.

Clear red card. Bale was meh, close to red i agree. Would not have been wrong if he was sent off, but Roberto was clear as day. It started in the first minute when Rakitic should have seen a yellow. Too bad Aytekin is not reffing the game...

First 40 minutes were great to watch!

You can't see shit with that camera, commentators here said that Roberto doesn't actually hit Marcelo, but, no matter what, if Bale gets sent off, the Roberto play doesn't happen.

And it does not matter if he hits him, the intention is enough and he (tried to) punch him. And not sure what happened between Alba and Modric. Sad, the first 40 minutes were great.

Spikes up high to the calf of the other player, when the ball was out of play, a yellow :lmao

[Jodelo]

Clear foul from Suarez against Varane before the goal. Ref helping Barca per par. (Refmadrid :lmao)

Alba should have gotten at least a yellow against Modric also, if not red.

After all that, you maybe should slow down. :lol

I put my money on a red for Ramos. :lol

It was a clear foul, but I would rather the ref sent off Bale like he should have done and call that Suárez foul, like he should also have done, and Barca would have been on a better position.

Barca +1 all game long should have been a clear win for them. Oh well, at least the unbeaten streak remains and God added to the Clásico record and Golden boot race.

[DAF86]

Clear penalty not given when Marcelo was fouled. :lmao But the ref helps Madrid :lol FAP86 :lmao

Bad offside call that should have been 3-1 to Barca too. Like I said above, the missed called that marked the rest of the game was the not sending off of Bale.

tbh they're bad everywhere because nobody is calling them out on it, because all fans are stuck into "my team :cry :cry:cry penaldo :cry unfair" when these assholes make mistakes left and right. One day they fuck you over one day they lift you up. Of course this is valid between equally big name teams, otherwise the smaller team is always getting fucked. It's on the bitchmade fans tbh .. like in the NBA, big teams have ref momentum because of all the bandwagon casual fucknigga fans. This is also the reason for which the players are pussies and the whole game feels castrated most of the time (nba and football). Welcome to '10 western culture, where everybody is a pussy and keeping it real makes you a racist/bully/meanie.
