"Mesut Oezil passing to Karim Benzema, who found Ronaldo again and the Real star passed across the goal for Oezil to score from two meters (yards) out."
A meter is not a yard, and is meter really so confusing you have to explain what it is?
Perfect result for neutrals hoping for a good second leg........ a lot of people are saying 2-1 is a minor advantage to Bayern, but I disagree, I always think getting an away goal and only being beaten by one is an advantage to the away side.
Well, if you consider Madrid go out if they lose or draw, and advance only with a win, it is a disadvantage. 2-1 is easier than 1-0, but not as good as 1-1. Obviously.
Indeed, but I think ideally in a home and away match the team that plays at home first should be looking to make the away side need to score at least twice in the return leg.
I also hate it that both the spanish sides are playing the second leg at home, I know it is not rigged to give the best possible chance of an El Classico final but it really, really feels like it!
