    And that is, as they say, is that.

    Real celebrating holding Barcelona to a 1-1 draw regarding it as an achievement. That is how bad and how low Madrid followers now consider themselves, not equals to Barcelona, but the plucky team who held out for a point against the champions and champions elect...much like Celtic/Liverpool/Malaga etc.

    What a pity..

    Tell all the Bohs you know
    that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    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.
    I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?

    Yeah gorgeous finish. Still the best finisher in the world IMO. He didn't move for large parts of the game though and he performed the worst dive I've ever seen in person...
