Yeah, one of the most attacking teams modern footbal has seen, the one that for the last decade played in the rival area more than any other team in the world broke the record of PK given to them just last season, outrageous.

19 penalties 38 games. As I stated before, if you have seen all of them, then you could argue about more than half of them, as the one Real seemed to have got tonight. Whether Barcelona are being the epidome of attacking football, or mother theresa's gift to humanity - some may see it that way (I don't). The systematic diving, surronding the referees; that could also be argued as part of barcelona's legacy. Maybe it is matter of perspective.

Meanwhile Real are still the team with most Penalties given in UCL and La Liga, but that's ok. We might complain but a Sevilla fan coming to "aid" arguments against Real Madrid doesn't seem logical to me, we're obviusly treated way better than you, but if we're George W Bush on a good day Real Madrid are Donald Trump on a killing frenzy

This actually made me laugh, I'll give you that:lol:
 


What? That doesn't even make sense and it's not written in the rules at all. If it rebounds of the Vilarreal player for example from his head to his hand then it's not a penalty because it's really close. But the rebound came from the other Vilarreal player who cleared the ball and was pretty far away. The rules state that what matters is the position of the hand (natural or unnatural), the distance from which the ball was kicked and how fast the ball travelled (basically if there was enough time for the player to move the arm out of the way or not). If it's a rebound or not is irrelevant.

The difference in la liga is about 20 penalties, not so much. Another year of record(as the last year) and you could reach us :p. In Europe Madrid are the team that have played more games, with an important distance so It´s actually normal to be the team with more penalties.

Really? If so can you show me that part of the rules?
 
That's a blatant penalty.

Barça fans whining about referees show a shocking lack of self awareness.

You and Real both get tonnes of appalling decisions go for you each season and that's just in the league.

Yeah I suspect the refs will do everything they can to make sure Real win it this season but they've been doing it in your favour for the past decade or so, so it's about time.
 
Does the ball actually hit Bruno's arm? If so, honestly...nah, still not a penalty for me

And...this season, for the first time in years, barcelona do have a point about the refs

Conflicting emotions. On the one hand, i don't like winning like this. On the other, barcelona's tears are so sweet it makes me kind of wish we keep getting outrageous calls the rest of the season(and i mean outrageous, not this penalty. Like Cristiano scoring 2 meters offside from a free kick against malaga. The kind of stuff that can only happen because the linesman been paid for :lol:)
 
When the ref decided to sent off Van Persie because Barca needed to score. Or the absurd pens against Milano. At least in UCL there is no team who has gone as much decisions in their favor as them.

In the league Real gets too many decisions, but so does Barca. Yet Barca fans act like they are going against the world. It was hilarious last year when FC Barca was moaning about the special treatment of Real, and then in Classico the ref giving the match to Barca.
It's always a bit rich when either Real or Barcelona fans complain about decisions in the league given how regularly the other 18 get dicked over.

That said, Arsenal getting robbed is a myth. They were lucky to still be in the tie at that point, given Messi having a goal wrongfully disallowed 1-0 up in the first leg (see 3.55 below) and then Messi again not getting a penalty for the trip in the second leg (see 2.35 in the second video). Those two decisions called correctly makes it game over long before Van Persie gets his red.



 
2-2 FT! Eibar equalized right at the end after they went to down to 10 men. They are such a lovely little club.
 
I love how teams don't even bother to field their full strength line-up against Barcelona. Thanks Sporting, can't wait till you are relegated.
 
Such a soft goal to concede. 1-0 Barca thanks to Leo.
That was some pass by Neymar to Suarez! 2-0!
 
Barca are not even putting in a big effort on the field, tbf. It's just Gijon who have given up before the game even started.
 
Great move involving Neymar (he looks up for it today), Messi and Rafinha. The latter strikes well-wide though.
2-1! Completely out of the blue!
 
Of course. Play the game of their lives at the bernabeu, but at the camp nou, weakened team and let's just focus on the next game shall we? Fecking cnuts. YOU ARE GETTING RELEGATED ANYWAYS, CNUTS :devil:

It's the second time a shit team has fielded a second string squad against Barcelona in their last 5 games, shit pisses me off so much.

I'm sure you'll be just as diligent to report when it happens in one of your games, eh? ;)
 
why else would you field a second string squad when you are fighting to stay out of relegation lmao
This isn't the general.

They probably didn't fancy their chances against Barcelona at the camp nou, something which also happens with teams going to Madrid. Can't blame them given a lot of them get battered by the two big sides. Regardless of the players they field, they're obviously trying to get a result.
