    Agreed. Abidal was downright awful in the first 20-30 minutes.

    Just finished watching the game. 6-2 is an unbelievable result, at the Bernabeu to boot. The quality of the goals were outstanding, perhaps the defending was sh!t? ;) Congratulations on a big win that likely sealed the LaLiga title race.

    I've just come back home after a loooooong night in the centre (8.15 AM here right now). I have no words. There are no words actually that can describe this. If I ever have have grandsons I will tell them I witnessed this. This is so great that you can't believe it. I wasn't even born when Cruyff's Barça won 0-5 and I just watched that game the other day, a game that was a myth when growing up, and man, this current team plays so much better, there's no comparison. This is paradise guys, i don't know what will happen in the next weeks but this is heaven and nothing and nobody will ever take this from me. How many titles will we win? I don't know. But titles, you can count them. You can't count or measure this feeling. You can't count or measure the way we play. That's what make us great. I'm crying as I type this. Football is the best thing ever.

    My wife turned in early with a nasty cold, so I was going to spend Saturday night at home as well. Turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Dear lord did I enjoy that game. :D

    VV- overall a good game for him, saved us twice the first half and had nothing to do with the two goals we conceded

    Puyol- scored the second goal, but was shaky in the first half.

    Pique- Nothing to say except wonderful performance, hope he can repeat in SB!

    Abidal- was shaky the first 25 mins and gave a chance for Ramos to cross straight to Higuain for the first goal.

    Alves- a good and busy performance overall

    Xavi- 4 assists!! Undisputed champion of the midfield!

    Iniesta- Like I said, recently he is better than Messi

    Yaya-kept the pressure on and totally owned the midfield

    Messi- missed few chances but changed his fortune 180 degree with two goals and an assist

    Henry- 2 gaols, MOTM

    Eto'o- had one or two shots, that's about it!

    Re: J34 La Liga | El Clásico | Madrid v FC Barcelona | 02 May 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion

    I gotta say that I was not expecting that result... I had to record the game and watched it last night(had a big exam yesterday)... Abidal was absolutely awful the first 25 minutes, but that's been pointed out... I really wanted to commend Pique... He has been impressing me more and more every week... I remember at the beginning of the season I couldn't understand what he was doing out on the pitch b/c his passes were erratic and his defending could've been better imo... But I think that he has passed Puyol as Barcelona's best center-back... Before everyone jumps on me about that... His defending has been top-class and the technical side of his game is really picking up as well... He's been making perfect cross-field passes which he could not do at the beginning of the season... If Barca could just find someone to put on the left-side of defense... I had no problems with Abidal before b/c even though he's a horrible crosser of the ball and really adds nothing going forward, he always played brilliant defense, but if he can't play defense then he has nothing to add to the team... Here's to Barca beating Chelsea and making it to the final...

    I got a question... I was trying to get a Barcelona home jersey of Messi for my son for his 4th birthday... Problem was apparently they were out of stock and weren't making them anymore b/c they're coming out with new jerseys in June... If anybody knows where I could get a jersey for a 4 year old of Messi in the Barcelona home jersey, it would be much appreciated...

    thanks USCule :D

    I have to admit I was a bit drunk when I wrote but I think I expressed pretty well what I felt (and still feel)

    and now I have some work to do, I'm gonna read all the match reviews from the Madrid press
