Well, this wednesday fcb was responsible for 50% of the heart attacks around the globe.
It was quite a good game against Celtic, really exciting to see how both teams kept up with the exigence of the match.
The second goal by Celtic goes into my “valdezada” category. That is a goal scored only when Valdez is goalkeeping. He’s good on average but sometimes he’s just a natural mystery.

I hope to be able to watch the second match, maybe I’ll be busy with some other things, but I’m sure it will be another good game since Celtic will be hoping to get all they can in Camp nou.


There again, I’m trying to fullfil the goal of this blog, hopefully I’ll be able to watch the games and comment on them thanks to rojadirecta.com.

This weekend, Barcelona went to kick Zaragoza’s ass, and they managed to do it, but not as easily as I thought. Zaragoza did a great game but this time Barcelona was luckier.

As for the two polemic plays (Henry’s goal and the 82′ penalty), honestly I don’t think it was a hand by Henry, for the penalty, I think it was a hand since the ball hits below the shoulder of the player.
But, let’s be reasonable, at such a rush, without or lazy asses commodity of watching the replay again and again, I think the referee decided correctly in both plays. Maybe for the second one we could blame the assistant for not being rigurous with his flag raising.

If you -like me- don’t have DirectTV or any source of soccer broadcasting, then you can get the game via rojadirecta’s forums, where you can grab a torrent (you need to sign up).


Bye bye liga

18Jun07

So after some ugly weeks of suffering, la Liga is finally over.

Sadly, Barsa was 30 minutes away from being champions again.

This tuesday, La Porta will be announcing plans for the new season. Rumor has it that besides Saviola, Edmílson, Giuly and Gudjohnsen will not be on the boat next season.

From the above, I would miss Giuly. But being realistic, he doesn’t have a chance to have minutes as long as Messi is not injured.

Let’s see how this turns out.
