Raphael Varane did the honors and scored the other own goal for Barca. Actually it was the first goal.
Feel like it's about time that kid left Madrid.

What?

In terms of defensive capabilities, I'd choose Varane over Ramos, but Ramos happens to be a better leader.

Same, but I didn't understand the other comment, getting rid of Varane who at its peak can easily be among the top 10 best defenders in the world? Yeah, I don't think so.

Also, Real probably will be angry tomorrow after big loss in Copa game. If I need to choose, I would predict that game will be end draw...

I don't know about the draw. Last time El Clasico finished with a draw in the league at the Santiago Bernabeu was in 2011. Current odds are favoring Barcelona but just by a small margin, draw @3.77 is tempting but also a bit risky imo.

Slava Ukraini!

@Pamoldar, I agree that Betis played well yesterday, but they have one problem this season IMO - lack of solid forward. This is why they're already out from Europa league. I really wanted to see them in Copa final, especially because it will be held at their own stadium.

So, now It's time for probably the Last classico for this Season.Madrid will be hoping to atleast win this match and reduce the Point Against their rival barca.They will be 6 Points behind if they win or 12 Points behind if they lose.So LaLiga is dependent on this el classico.Another great match is waiting for football fans.

If Real will lose tomorrow, it will be impossible to reach Barca when there is 12 points gap and 12 games left. Meanwhile Barca have safe advantage against Atletico and Real, so even if they will lose this match, nothing terrible won't happen. Also, Real probably will be angry tomorrow after big loss in Copa game. If I need to choose, I would predict that game will be end draw...

Finally Valencia scored however I think Betis should win this match. They are playing really well. 69% ball possessioning so far. I thought Valencia will play better but they are disappointing today.

Less than 5 miutes + stoppage time to go, That means Betis needs at least 2 goals, If they are to advance to the next finals, I sincerely doubt Valencia will be that careless for the remaining few minutes of the match.

It's over for them. They played excellent football but really could not make it to the next round. Here is the statistic of the mach and this tells a lot about the domination of Betis.

So, after 11 years, Valencia are in Copa del Rey final again. Good thing I decided to skip this match, I was actually planning to go for Betis to win, I think the odds were around @4.18, I thought Betis was displaying some good football domestically, but just like the game yesterday, you need something more than "good football" to make it to the final.

Betis had a great performance in the first half and Valencia seemed that they will concede one goal.
I don't know what happened in the dressing rooms but Valencia went out stronger and then Betis was unable to challenge Valencia. Personally, I wanted to see Betis in the final, but the better team won!

He used to be good and had lots of potential but not anymore. Easily bullied by aggressive strikers like Diego Costa and Suarez. Crumbles under pressure and very error prone when it comes to big matches
Ramos on the other side despite the red cards and yellow cards is a leader and fighter Madrid need right now. Imagine Ramos was not in Madrid at the moment Grin

, I think the team would be in 6th place or something.

Frankly speaking, have not see Madrid winning against FC Barcelona on this match because going by their previous match they did very great and this time they will prove it to the whole world again. What we are going see about Madrid will be remarkable but winning the points will be difficult.

Exactly, Betis played better, but that wasn't just enough.
The same thing happened in the 1st semi final match between Real Madrid vs Barcelona, where Madrid played somewhat better than Barcelona, ended up losing by 3 goals.
I think Barcelona would emerge victorious, however.

Really, really happy my team pulled through on this one. So strange that we only had 2 shots on target the entire game and yet we still won 3-0. I knew I should have bet on Suarez first to score (6.5) as he was bound to break his duck.

This was not the most fun Clasico to watch, but we get another repeat in La Liga. Can Barca make it 10 points lead? I would bet on it!

Or was it just like the chelsea game where tottenham player was passing the ball back to his goalkeeper and it went straight into the net from 15 yards out. Roll Eyes

The 2nd leg of the 2nd semi final of the Copa Del Rey between Valencia vs Real Betis will get underway in few seconds, the first leg ended 2 - 2 at Real Betis. What are your predictions for the match at Mestalla today ?

I think Valencia will eventually make it to the final to meet with Barcelona, and I think it will be a 2 - 1 victory for Valencia

5 minutes gone and Betis is keeping their possession of the ball by producing short passes. Valencia is home team so I will give them advantages. My be they will win this. 3 - 1 I predict.

Valencia is a good team but betis also can perform well.Remember betis has beaten both RMA and barca.So Valencia should carefully handle betis.I am hoping a great match between these two teams.

How to explain what happened in El Clasico today: Real Madrid, 7 clear chances, 0 goals...Barcelona, one shot on target, one goal.

We simply lacked firepower. We dominated the game, displayed better football, had more goal chances, and yet we lost 0-3. We simply weren't clinical enough and we paid the price.

Quote from: rdbase on February 27, 2019, 04:38:34 PM

I believe messi should of put in atleast one of those goals.

Messi was awful tonight.

Real Madrid proved my assumptions once again. They have a strong weakness in the attacking part, while Benzema is a clear Center Forward that gathers all the defenders on him. Especially in big matches, he cannot do a lot with that. Real Madrid needs a second player in the attack (like Ronaldo did) that will be something like a shadow striker and get the scoring chances when Benzema can't.

Barca didn't play well and Messi in specific he was very bad. However, the team found other solutions.

It's 3-0 for Barcelona.The match could be different but Madrid couldn’t execute the chances they created.Barcelona is through to Final and likely to won it.A disappointing result for Madrid because they already far behind from winning laliga, now cdr is lost also.

Hey Barcelona were not even trying anything for the first 45 minutes, I can’t believe it that Real Madrid wasted so many glorious chances to seal the match in the first half. I feel Squarez was the difference as in the first half he barely played, but in the second half he fired Barcelona to victory. Also it’s pertinent to note that with La Liga title almost gone, CDR elimination now Madrid head coach has to win championships league to survive, or he’ll get the sack and Mourinho will be appointed.
