Spanish Clasico: Real Madrid - Barcelona [P+R]

[yt23w]

i can see either Madrids' Diarra/Emerson combo slowing down the game completely and playing out a boring 1-0/1-1/0-1 game for 90 mins

or

(sadly) Barca speeding past Canna/Emerson/Diarra/Helguera only stopping to go 'Beep Beep' roadrunner style.

or Sergio Ramos getting red carded.

and Capello making some totaly shocking subs Eg. a 1/2 fit Ronaldo instead of Robinho or something like that.

I think it'll be an interesting clasico! Barca have to be the favorites. But favorites don't always win. Hmmmmm..I predict 3-1. Goals from Raul (2) Robinho, Jar Jar Binks (1 from penalty...as usual)

Orgullo Vikingo presente! Hala Madrid!

Ronaldo is suspended for the game...and he is not half fit either, he should be a closer to full fitness by now.

Yes, Barça is the favourite, but as Socrates says is a completly diferent macth when you play the clasico and may be teams can surprise with his game, aswell Barça as Madrid. Dont forget Van Nistelrooy on the atack, it can be decisive as Ronnie or Messi, if he has a good day.

But as you i hope a great macth ,and, as a Barça fan, a victory, but im sure that the first minutes and may be the first half will be very tactical, trying to evade the scoring for the other teams, and sure, that the referee dont piss of the nice football.

Nice posting BTW guys, keep it up

Yes, why not, i think that rivalry between Barça and Madrid does not mean specific to speak bad words, like i saw in other posts with other rivalry teams, that´s good, it have not sense when someone is happy of to see how the rivalry team lost a macth in other competition, i mean, for example Madrid-Lyon or Barça-Chelsea, and there´s people saying, haha, "im happy about they lost", but man!! do you preferd a foreing team that dont belongs to nothing to you that wins....it will be not more nice to see a Champions League Barça-Madrid final??, you know what i mean. Ok, in La Liga is diferent, you know, points, and is normal to expect that your more nearest rivals lost their macthes. I think that WE, the fans, must to have respect between us and only leave the feelings go when the ball is rolling, that´s the very deep feeling of football, to join people and make people enjoy. Indeed we have more respect and style that some players, directives and all this stuff, and overall, than the refs.

As i say, hope a nice macth without "BUT´S" . By the way, do you know who will be the referee for this macth?, i hope that Rafa will be not the linesman...hooooo....

Take care

Barca is still the better side than Real (alltough the miss the often underrated/underevalued Etoo)

a Barca win
Ramos or Carlos to get sent off
Ruud scoring

 

[Vedran-10]

Puyol is fit. :Bow:

Neeskens talked in private with Sylvinho to discuss the tactics for tomorrow. That probably means Gio is out.

If only Rijkaard played Saviola.

I dont like that kind of mentality, hoping your rival loses even before your team wins. For me I could care less if you guys win a CL match or lose, either way I just want my team to win but I know there are people who would sometimes perfer Barca to lose than for us to win ( and it works the other way around too ) which is stupid.

I think the ref will be Alfonso Pérez Burrull but not for sure on that one.

Real Madrid to nick this one, I can't see Barça getting a point for some reason.

HALA MADRID

 

[JuventusForever]

Hoping for another Barca show like last year."Gray-al Madrid's" defence looked kinda feeble in the matches i've seen.

XID. Great news. Thuram, too.
