Madrid were fantastic. Barca lacked leadership and conviction. The play acting was disgraceful though, Jordi alba went down at one stage like he got a punch from one of the klitchsko brothers!!!!

Ronaldo was pure class tonight. He’s still a complete arse though..

Never seen xavi play so bad. Took me half an hour to realise he was playing and not on the bench.

Barca were poor vs Milan last week too. Goes to show people have figured out they don’t have the best back 4 and keeper in the world.

During Guardiola’s four seasons the team had always a bad moment and it’s like that right now. Hopefully the team will recover and will show its best side. Visca el Barça!

I must say that this result has been accepted with far more class than the result lastweek vs Milan.

Madrid were excellent last night. and theres the possibility of a madrid derby for the final, which would be great.

As for Barca, I think they’re suffering without a manager. A good result in the return leg against Milan though and they could still pull of a double. Have to overturn a 2 goal defecit first though. Any talk of this team being finished is absolutley ridiculous though. They have been imperious in La Liga!

C.Ronaldo gets the better of Lionel Messi. :)

Pity to see a great team like barca just not perform on the night

Being a Barca fan I have to say i’ve never seen them play so bad at home. But people jump the gun and say “oh the end of an era” and such, is absolute BS. They’ve had a few bad games and they can’t be amazing in every game! what does it take for some people? they’re top of La Liga and Messi just broke the 300 goal threshold. Iniesta is probably the best mid fielder in the world and players like Tello and Thiago are gonna ensure Barca will be a force in the future. Fair play to Real on the night, but it’s a tit for tat thing with these two teams. Next year, Barca could beat them 4-0 and the year after Real could do the same. Still think Barca are the greatest though.

Goes to show that if you starve messi of oppurtunities then you limit much of the threat of posed by barca. They rely on him so much and the likes of puyol, xavi and even iniesta look like they’ve passed their best.

I think Barca might be a busted flush. There you go, I said it
