Last nights El Classico was great to watch. Madrid started so well by pressing high up the pitch and preventing the Barca back 4 time on the ball. The thing is, it could only happen for a while and soon they couldn't keep the intensity up and this allowed Barca time on the ball to pass the ball around and set up those triangles. The equaliser was a typical Barca move, Messi (undoubtedly the best player in the world at the moment) driving forward and taking 3 players out of the equation by a simple pass and it was 1-1
2nd half was all Barca, although Madrid had their chances. The most telling at 2-1 when Rondaldo missed a clear header, a minute later Barca score with Fabregas netting after an inch perfect cross from Alvies.
Anyone who says that they don't like the way Barcelona play doesn't deserve to have eyes. As for the diving, well yes there was a bit of that (from both sides) along with the typical Mourinho tactic when his team gets outplayed of kick the opposition (Ramos should have seen red at least) but I ask you, tell me a game in the modern day that doesn't have examples of diving. I have watched both the Blackburn game and Stoke game and have seen examples of diving. There are examples of diving week in week out in every league....to say otherwise is just burying you head in the sand.
