    No studs I don't think, I got a great link which makes me happy, albeit dodgy foreign commentary.

    Didnt appear that way on the angle I saw, from Busquets right, in slo mo, with Diarras foot seemingly missing him altogether? just planting in front of him?

    Ill look at it again at half time Im sure, maybe I missed it but from what I saw there was no contact.


    Edit: Saw it from a few angles now, no studs

    there was contact but no studs and I do believe downing the players gets you banned to the poster who was insulting busquets

    They said it on Revista on Tuesday that Valdes saves a huge amount of one-on-ones in these games. Pinto messed up for Real's goal.

    No Marcelo on the pitch, for me, is the reason Barca have not scored. If you look at all the El Clasicos of Mourinho/Pep Marcelo is often at fault for a Barca goal.

    Ronaldo's tracking back with Alves forward movement is the key to Barca not creating a whole lot.

    And this is just so gripping to watch!

    damn!

    one shot, one goal.

    I think Madrid have defended well enough (kinda wilted towards the end but even so) but Christ, this looks a real kick and rush job.

    Pinto was totally at fault, but I don't mind that he's playing because he never gets a chance in the league or champions league.

    I'd say himself and Busquets do have savage brain storming sessions on knew ways to con the ref.

    Barca are 3/1 draw no bet, put a few quid on that, put a few quid on fabregas 2nd goalscorer at 15/2 as well.

    ...and now Ramos and Pepe get upset and the hacking starts. Great. :(

    C'mon, don't turn in to a farce just because Barcelona have torn Madrid to shreds the whole match so far. :(

    The ref has suddenly turned in to a croupier. Stop the farce, play the game. Intestate so unlucky there!

    Steal, not bargain. Easily a £50 million player

    Sanchez too. Just hoping Barcelona can keep it up, they've had nearly all of the game bar the mistake that lead to the Madrid goal. Pinto just made a wonder save though to pay off that debt!

    Concerned about them playing so high though, the counters are happening more often than they should be.
