Well I do want Madrid to win, but with sergio and pepe off and mourinho not coaching I doubt that it will happen.
Regarding Pepe's send off, everyone agrees that it should have been a yellow. Although he didn't touch him. And people who say that he did are just die-hard deluded barca fans. The slow-motion rewind of the video has been broadcasted by international media (frensh, german and dutch) and not only by Marca (a pro-madrid paper).
And yes, biscuits and pedro ARE liars.. I cracked up when i saw how pedro bumped into Arbeloa and rolled over the floor!
Anyway, my guess is mourinho has nothing to lose now, so he'll prolly play all offensive. I expect lots of goals in this one, and with pepe missing, wouldn't be surprised to see another 5-0.

This is seriously pathetic. Could someone explain to me why Higuin's goal was cancelled at the beginning of the second half? :)

Ronaldo hit Mascherano see the replays.

And it's over , poor real , Iker Saved them a lot , and for those who say that the refs is always with Barca, i think you were proven wrong , Madrid should have received multiple red cards , well it doesn't matter , we are in the finals!
See you at Summer for the upcoming classicos , and will do a thread for the final.

Because Real is Mourinho's team :).

No F***** Idea!!!! :@

Just because. You know, someone pushed CR, fell on the defender's leg and he tripped. Oh and ramito.. I'm pretty sure we didn't watch the same game, half barca players especially biscuits in the first half and mascherano in the second should have been sent off for diving. We saw a couple of dives from Villa as well (love camera close shots!). The way I see it, RM managed to draw barca in their own pitch, without Ramos and Pepe, and most importantly without a coach. Add to that a disallowed goal as well. I just wonder what would have happened in the first tie if the Ref didn't believe Alves's lies when he rolled over like a tire to fake an injury, funny thing is that even his team mates didn't believe him. If they did, they would have checked him out or yell at Pepe, instead they all mobbed the referee to lure a card.
Conclusion: A team of first class divers/cheats + a great footballer (Messi) has won.
Lets see what will happen in the final.

Because as usual that ******** alves. When cristiano was fouled he fell down on dani alves and his body his dani alves's heal so he fell down. Higuain's goal should have counted.

Madrid fans. You are sore loosers!! Not even a replay will convince you.
Go back and watch the video in my previous post w 3azzo 7elkon!
HotCreep
Xserver, no need to call names, there is nothing personal here and it should stay that way. If you actually had something to say you would have said it instead of saying terms like "sore losers" and "3azzo 7alkon". Well what did the replay that I've posted show? It showed that obviously the Referee blew the whistle THINKING that Mascherano could have reached the ball IF he didn't fall, but he couldn't. you can see the distance between Mascherano and the ball when he tripped. Higuain was much closer to it. Anyway, the tie is over, barca whether deservingly or undeservingly, won. See you again in 3 months

HotCreep, the referee did not blow the whistle based on whether Mascherano was going to reach the ball or not.
He blew it because Ronaldo tripped and fell on Mascherano and made him fall independent of the ball's position. If the ball is in Barca's box and Casillas trips Villa, then it's a foul for Villa.
THINKING that Mascherano could have reached the ball? Are you serious? Since when is this new rule in place?

Maybe I'm just new to football. Anyway I didn't make it up, I read it in some match review yesterday. Either ways Ronaldo was pushed by Pique. All I know is Ronaldo wouldn't have dived especially because he did the pass to Higuain and Higuain had a clear shot. Hence he was pushed. I did watch the match with barca fans and they actually thought that the referee stopped the game because Ronaldo was fouled.
It was a nice goal IMO, and most importantly it came rather early and it would have prolly changed a lot of things in the match.
Props to Messi, he really is a special footballer. Props to Xavi, barca's play revolves around him, a bit arrogant off the pitch though. Others are just good-passers/dribblers bad-divers/moaners bunch of players. I would love to post the Pepe/Alves video from the last classico in slow rewind, I'm just too lazy to though.
As for me, I'm trying to figure out whether to wear a Rooney or a Chicharito shirt on the 28th :P

guys , what happened is the following , Pique pushed CR7 , real got the advantage , but CR7 tripped mascherano , now i don't think he did it on purpose , but that is a foul , you can't tackle anyone , even if they don't have the ball . The bad decision was to not give Real a free kick , because the advantage was broken.

What kind of F'd up logic is that?! lol. How is it Cristiano's fault that he was pushed by Pique? Why would the advantage be "broken" if he was pushed and tripped the team-mate of the guy that pushed him? Please explain :)
