La Liga - 2014/15

Has Mathieu ever played in that position before? Perhaps @Ekeke knows
 
Marcelo has been the best player on the pitch. Has ripped Dani Alves apart so far.
 
Good half. About even overall I'd say, both teams had a spell of dominance.
 
Much better game than the last few have been. Much more of a sense that Madrid are trying to win rather than trying not to lose which helps.

Isco, Modric and Kroos are having great games but Carvajal is having an absolute worldie. Barça started well enough but they're struggling to stop Madrid and Suarez isn't ready to play so he's been completely invisible.

James isn't good enough.
 
So we are finished with the "hasn't conceded a goal yet". We now got the longer "hasn't conceded against from open play yet". Great.
 
One of the Barcelona players will get a red in the second half.

Huh? Suárez set up the opener and created a great chance for Messi. Hardly invisible.

Except that terrific cross Messi fluffed.
 
I've always known him as a LB. for a short time he played as a left midfielder for Valencia as well. I was surprised to see him as a CB.

Fair enough mate. Been atrocious though
 
Barça concede the penalty, he takes Madrid's penalties, he nearly always scores and yet you're having a dig at him?

Ridiculous. What's he supposed to do? Say I don't want to take penalties so people can't doubt my scoring stats?
Wtf? :lol:

Calm your tits mate I was just repeating what the commentator said.
