La Liga 2017/18

[Snow]

penalty+red card > goal

Tell that to Ghana.

 

[KM]

Can this commentator stop saying Football Club Barcelona?

 

[Slevs]

I really don’t know. Wasn’t even the first time he was there. Whatever Zidane was planning today, it’s failing horribly. Barca aren’t even that good and yet lead comfortably. Kovacic man-marking Messi failed horribly, too.

Has it? Messi hasn't done anything major in this game.

 

[Andycoleno9]

I am so glad to see bale on the bench. He is rather on the bench than no7 in united . feck him

 

[Bojan11]

GAME OVER! People criticise United and Mourinho when we are 2nd in the league and Real Madrid are 4th. Zidane’s job could be at risk soon, which is sad considering all he has achieved but Perez won’t be at all happy so far this season.

Perez or whoever is in charge of signings is to blame.

Letting go of Morata, Pepe and James with no replacements was a stupid decision. All three played a good squad role last season.

 

[KirkDuyt]

Bale and Ascensio have been waiting on the touch line for like 10 minutes

 

[el3mel]

That was Madrid's only chance to decrease the gap and prove the league isn't done for.

 

[Andycoleno9]

El Classico is like22 people trying to be the biggest cnut on the pitch. And it’s a close race everytime.

So true this

 

[kouroux]

Haven’t been following la Liga much recently.....what’s this going to mean for Zidane? I assume his stocks still high enough to get through this ok?

The CL will be decisive. If they get knocked out by PSG then he might get fired.

 

[Theafonis]

Ronaldo fan boys on suicide watch

 

[VorZakone]

Has it? Messi hasn't done anything major in this game.

Perhaps not major but he put 2 players 1v1 with the goalie today.

 

[HTG]

Has it? Messi hasn't done anything major in this game.

What? Kovacic marking Messi led to the first goal and Messi played the pass that led to the second goal.

 

[Maradona10]

What rumour will madrid media and Marca start to calm down their fans?
De gea?
Aguero?
Kepa?
Mbappe?
Neymar?

 

[Migo]

real need to score before HT, barca usually up thier game in the 2nd half

but zidane didn't listen

 

[Florida Man]

Are these people who hated Suarez for that save against Ghana going to despise Carvajal too now?

Suarez’s cheating got his team through to the next stage of the WC when it should have been Ghana. Carvajal’s cheating resulted in Barca getting a goal. So unless you’re attempting a bad joke, this is perhaps the most pointless thing I’ve read today about this match.

 

[GifLord]

Suarez chances - Pen incident - 0:2 Messi

 

[kouroux]

That was Madrid's only chance to decrease the gap and prove the league isn't done for.

Like the Manchester derby

 

[cyberman]

The rule is denying the opponent. When someone is through on goal and is tackled the defender gets a red because he's denying a clear goal scoring opportunity. If the ball goes straight to another player who then scores it should be a goal, not a free kick and a red card. The ref just thought that he saved a shot, had he waited a second he would have given the goal.

They can't play advantage for red card offences. If it's a red card they stop it right away.

 

[Snow]

They can't play advantage for red card offences. If it's a red card they stop it right away.

It wasn't a red card offense though. He handled the ball, that's a yellow.

 

[lawliet354]

Iniesta still as amazing as always

 

[Andycoleno9]

Great reflex save by Carvajal, tbf.

Better than mignolet yesterday

 

[adexkola]

Btw I think Pique has been brilliant so far today.

Aye he has.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Id like to see us play a 442 in the way that Barca are playing.

 

[Slevs]

Perhaps not major but he put 2 players 1v1 with the goalie today.

Compared to his usual performances against Madrid he's been worse today no?

 

[Rajma]

It's not a joke, you're just being stupid I don't even know where to start.

 

[kouroux]

Letting go of Morata, Pepe and James with no replacements was a stupid decision. All three played a good squad role last season.

Spot on. A clear sign of arrogance or financial limitations ?

 

[cyberman]

It wasn't a red card offense though. He handled the ball, that's a yellow.

Deliberate hand ball on the line is a red card offence and always has been

 

[McGrathsipan]

Madrid look bang average.
Not even trying now

 

[el3mel]

Like the Manchester derby

No need to remind us of such a bitter match, man.

Both leagues are similar though.

 

[Jim Beam]

Strangely enough, modric at fault

Just seen the first goal again. True this.

 

[Needham]

3 - 0 starts to look bad

 

[giorno]

If it were the camp nou i'd suspect tampered water at half time, Argentina style

 

[Vato]

That was a handball surely?

 

[Snow]

Deliberate hand ball on the line is a red card offence and always has been

Because it stops a goal. Not because it was a deliberate handball.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

... That's a handball

 

[kouroux]

No need to remind us of such a bitter match, man.

Both leagues are similar though.

Sorry

 

[Bastian]

Right in front of the linesman, Messi didn't touch Varane there.

 

[Andycoleno9]

It wasn't a red card offense though. He handled the ball, that's a yellow.

Yes it was. Come on man. He saved fecking goal here. It is red . Ref could delay decision and he would escaped that ban because ball went to goal but it is a red.

 

[whatwha]

Listening to the commentators on bein sports is almost a good kind of pain

 

[Yorkeontop]

Well that's Zidane gone then.

Maybe, depends on how the rest of the season goes. Don't fire him I say, Real just mentally tired from all that winning and Ronnie seemingly in decline. Who do they get anyway?
