Will we have a third part?
Will the light work?
Will Ronaldo play?
The answer, Tomorrow.

It looks like Figo may miss the game.
According to Marca, Figo is doubtful for the continuation of Real’s match with Real Betis that was postponed a couple of weeks ago after 42 minutes. Figo injured his right knee yesterday in Madrid’s victory over Alaves.

And the game, in C+... which means that I'll see it :D
Hope they achieve the comeback. We would top the table.

LOL. Rumor on the street has it that Lopera tried to get TVE 1 to have a special "Gran Prix" show for Betis and another club so he could compete for a years worth of Spram light bulbs. But they couldn't find another taker. Seems like all the other clubs keep some spare bulbs around. :D

Well, the light worked and Ronaldo was in the starting line-up. And the team won the second part being the final result of the match 1-1.
Very good match by the teams that for me are making the best soccer this year.
The Real played very well in the fist minutes with
goal occasions by Zidane, Ronaldo and finally the Raul goal. But after that the team lost the ball and Betis dominated clearly the game but without many goals occasions.
I think that the lost the ball problem was mainly for the Betis pressure, but also because Casillas began to shot long balls giving the ball to the Betis instead of pass the ball to the defenders and begin the plays touching the ball. The Real Madrid need the ball and although the other team is pressing well the team have the resources to avoid that pressure.
Raul left the field injured.
Starting line-up:
--------------------Casillas
Salgado------Helguera---Hierro---Roberto Carlos
Guti----------Cambiasso--Makelele------Zidane
-------------------Ronaldo------Raul
Subs:
Macca for Raul
Solari for Guti
Best:
Raul, Roberto carlos
Worst:
Empty or Casillas
