Another early exit for Real Madrid, so once more Barca fans like me will be happy to progress and know we won't meet them. Not like it's really going to change things. Probably even worse to reach the final and lose again at the end;)
But anyway, good news our rivals are all also falling about.
Honestly it is really a weird feeling to have Real Madrid get out this early once again, they are such a big and great club, why not care about the cup at all?
I mean they didn't play with full youth squad or anything but they did played with few players resting that is for sure, I get that you are playing against a much much lower opponent so that is why you think having few starter caliber players are enough, but as we can see from this example it is never enough, you have always have a fire underneath you so that you could beat people, it doesn't matter if it is starters or bench or anything, if you do not play with a decent hype or motivation you are going to end up losing to anyone.
In any case I think it is obvious that Barcelona will have a huge advantage this year, if Real lost that means Barça can lose too so they need to be careful, but their biggest rival is out so they have a good shot at it.
