Re: Fifa Club World Cup|Semi-Final and Final

This san Lorenzo side is so dirty. All they do is just kick our players and surround the reff everytime the whistle is blown. It doesn't help that it look like the reff is newly qualified with the way he has lost the game already from the first minute

Regarding us, we are losing the ball alot in the offensive third, its cringeworthy watching Bale and Ronaldo attempt one-twos because they never come off. I wonder why james and isco dont swap, both of them cut in when they get the ball anyways so it makes sense if they did. Hope Marcelo is ok but unless Carlo starts rotating more that sight is going to be very frequent during the remainder of the season

In other news, another game and another set piece assist from Kroos :bow:

now he has exposed spanish, mexican and argentinian clubs for the fraud they are on set pieces. Soon it will be german then british :megusta:

What happened to Marcelo ?

by halamadrid2 Sat Dec 20, 2014 9:21 pm

Pulled a thigh muscle. Doesn't look too serious

good win, one point i have to make about bale, the guy's been crap for months, but he's managing to rack up goals....i think that's a positive, if u're out of form and can still put the ball in the back of the net, it helps ure confidence as a forward...rather than being out of form and not being able to score or assist for shit....hopefully the guy gets back to sense in the new year, and his crossing is awful but i expect that playing on the right

San Lorenzo. Talk about parking a bus and armouring it. It's a wonder there weren't any major injuries.

Ronaldo really looked dejected out there during ceremony.
Anyone see that Platini snub at the 2nd round of handshakes? Very Happy

I saw that Laughing

Don't know why he was upset though.. I hope it wasn't because he didn't score in both games lmao

I think that would be a fairly good guess Laughing

Bale and those elephant like first touches are becoming incredibly and hilariously frustrating to witness.

by halamadrid2 Sun Dec 21, 2014 6:20 am

Ronaldo only has himself to blame for not scoring against Cruz Azul. He tried too many golazo attempts had he kept it simple he definitely would've scored. He didn't get many chances against SL but thats because his poverty attempts at 1-2s that very rarely come off. It doesn't help that Bales crosses go out of bound though lol. We really need to go back to the formation and line up we played when Bale was out injured, we played our absolute best football then

by FennecFox7 Sun Dec 21, 2014 8:17 am

Bale kills the balance of the team. unless we play a high pressing team like juve then he hits the bench

by sportsczy Sun Dec 21, 2014 10:35 am

These games are tough because our players aren't playing at full intensity... since we rely on quick passing, everything just seems a bit off because everyone is not on the same page in terms of how hard they're playing.

Pitch has been horrible for both games too, which makes it tough.

by halamadrid2 Sun Dec 21, 2014 11:01 am

Thought the pitches were in great condition actually. But yh there were alot of sloppy passing out there even Kroos misplaced many passes. The winter break couldnt come at a better time. Cant believe there is a game against AC Milan when the team is this knackered

That is if he manages to get the ball first, he always seems on a different page than the team, kind of like he didn't get the memo that we stopped playing every pass long, and we're gonna control the midfield sometimes.

Although, he does get them clutch goals.

by Valkyrja Sun Dec 21, 2014 11:48 am

Bet 50 bucks that Kroos will start against Milan

by TheVoiceOfTheVoiceless Sun Dec 21, 2014 12:07 pm

If we fail to beat Milan does the record go out of the window?
Seriously what the hell is the point of a friendly during the Xmas period, especially as there's no break in La Liga.

Also I heard the prize money for the CWC is €5,000,000. That will pay 1/20th of Perez's next galactico Very Happy

by halamadrid2 Sun Dec 21, 2014 12:13 pm

I think the record is in official games so friendlies don't count

by sportsczy Sun Dec 21, 2014 1:31 pm

pitch was horrible dude... potato field in front of both goals. It had rained for 2 months almost nonstop until the semis of the CWC. You could tell that every time a player tried to make a sharp cut or slide, he lifted a foot of mud.

They used a lot of paint to make everything look green lol.

by chad4401 Sun Dec 21, 2014 6:58 pm

but but i thought illarra was the reason why the team wasn't so great rofl
