...an utter humiliation/annihilation/embarrassment/masterclass
Barcelona are the best team in the world. I have said it for a season now and they keep proving it right. Real and the team they put out just couldn't handle them and that was their strongest team.
Real giving a standing ovation to Ronaldinho after the third was magnificent..:cool:
It was almost too easy...:D
what an amzing display......pure genius......
Very surprised at how poor Real were.
Think bad defending made Ronaldinhos goals look better than they were.
Real are starting to pay for signing the worlds best players while they were in their prime while Ronaldinho is probably still improving.
Barca have tightened up at the back aswell so are looking a much stronger prospect for the CL.
Truely class.
Anyone got links to the goals?
A joy to watch, Barca simply had to much fitness/energy for an ageing Madrid team and totally overpowered them.
That's the end for Real now and that team will now break up I think.
Roaldinho is amazing to watch. He will surely be remembered as the best player the world has ever seen for generations. He tore Madrid apart - and people prefer to watch the English Premiership :confused:
The 0-3 result was a fluke.
Real struggled badly with many players unfit/injured. Helguera, Beckham, Zidane, Ronaldo, and later on, Raul. The heart was ripped out of the team, and Barca were made to look better than they are. This "best team in the world" crap from dfx, usually fk up, against a side who have a go to them, e.g. Ath. Madrid, Chelsea, Valencia, and Zaragoza. Real didn't, no surprise really given all the injuries.
It was one game too soon for half of the team. :(

The only fluke was that it wasn't 7 or 8-0 !!!!!

Name the injuries - that was more or less the full Real team. Barcelona are quiet clearly the best club team in the world at the moment - no one is even close.Quote:

And Barca didn't **** up in all their games, they were just beaten on the day. Not a huge deal tbh....

Real are not a bad side. It was just one of those nights, when Real had a load of injured players playing, and Barca got everything their own way. It was a one-off.Quote:

Still though the Real defence were like statues, standing there watching Baby Ron glide past them. I mean whether you go tackle him inside or outside the box he is still going to ground whether contact is made or not.You might as well make it worth his while. They were sh*tting themselves.
While we're on the subject of Baby Ron, All that money surely they can do something with his teeth. They were able to sort Ronan Keatings surely they can sort his too
Reál the fascist clowns were humilated. Well done barca !!
It's all ifs, buts and maybe about Real and some people's blinkered views.....
If this or that happened, blah, blah, blah....:rolleyes:
The fact are Real's strongest team (-Woodgate) were completely and totally outplayed. To say that the strongest team that Real could put out was half with unfit, unprepared, old players says it all for their policies over the last few years.
Even with Woodgate, he alone as an improvement would not have been able to stop the deluge...
It could have been and should've been 7 or 8-0...as I've said many a time with Real, you can get away with it at Cadiz or Alaves or Athletic Bilbao where they were 1-0 down....but against the real opposition, they have failed consistently over the last two years this season - Depor, Valencia and Barcelona and Lyon, the best 4 teams you've played have completely outplayed Real and this defeat is not because of bad injuries or lucky mi****s from Ronaldo, they are no longer good enough to beat the top opposition....full stop.
Well, in the re-match, it was a contest, and we got a 1-1 draw with only 10 men. :DQuote:

Real had to win, Barca didn't, in terms of winning La Liga - Real couldn't step up to the mark, Carlos acting the eejit didn't help.
Barca also had the better of the game, larsson should have had a couple along with at least one Eto'o chance that I remember.
I only caught the first half of the seville derby on sky. Was supposed to go to that game with a mate but it fell through, looked like there was plenty of pre-match aggro betwwen fans. Game finsihed 2-1 to Betis, anyone see it? were Betis worthy winners?
And that is, as they say, is that.Quote:

What a pity..:D
Was at the game. Barca dominated throughout. One missed Ronaldinho pass and a hamstring strain by Motta and thats pretty much it from Real who played the entire second half with 8 defenders.
Benfica on Wednesday is seen as a bigger game.
It was a great finish from Ronaldo in fairness, but Barca dominated as you would expect with the one man advantage.Quote:
