We came, we saw, we conquered.

Real Madrid have defeated Barcelona yet again, it seems like the beginning of a new dawn and this is the sunny side for Real Madrid. Till around Barcelona didn't know what struck them. Amazing game play by the squad and a superb show by Marcelo, showing that he showed be given a place in the starting 11 and not be substituted. Goals from Ronaldo and Higuain in the 19th and 10th min. led to the well deserved 2-1 for victory for Los Balncos.
Barcelona only did one thing in the game and that was possession, that to not as their usual self. The Catalans were down to ten men in the 27th minute when Adriano made a last man foul against Ronaldo. Barcelona did recover with a Messi free kick (didn't know he could do that), to keep the game alive. The second half was comparitively boring were both teams seemed to be getting a bit complacent but Barcelona were looking desperate. The last ten minutes were the high point of the match wherein Alex Song and Modric, both the new signings came in. Both showed potential and added some flair to the game.
All in all it was a superb show by Ronaldo and Co. Mourinhio had earlier said that winning the Spanish cup was not that important to him but it will be a great motivational boost for the players, starting very badly. It felt like Real were back in the game doing what they are best at, winning.
All in all a superb win for the team.





HALA MADRID!!!!!
