Sorry, but it’s true.
Who can figure these boys out? Only rivaled in talent by Barcelona, Real Madrid have all the makings of a dominant world team, but also have the volatility to completely implode. But, after crushing Villareal 6-2 today, and keeping Barcelona’s lead at only two points, the Royal Whites look poised to make a [...]
Real Madrid showed they can win without their two big name summer signings after they dispatched Valencia 3-2 away yesterday. Ronaldo was suspended due to his red card last weekend, and Kaka was out due to injury, but Gonzalo Higuain netted a brace in the action packed second half, where all five goals were scored [...]
The champions show their class again, moving five points clear of Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table. Barca took care of Deportivo 3-1 today, getting a brace from Messi and having 72% of possession during the process. Barcelona play the most attractive football on the planet, along with Arsenal, but the [...]
Cristiano Ronaldo can do it all. He can win a penalty, miss the penalty, score a goal, and then get sent off by acquiring two yellow cards in a three minute span! It all happened today v. Almeria as Madrid won the match 4-2. Madrid keep the heat on Barcelona, trimming the champions lead to [...]
After Barcelona’s victory today, is there any doubt who will win La Liga? The scoreline only read 1-0, and it took a neat and tidy volley from Zlatan Ibrahimovic to win it, but Barcelona had nearly 70% of possesion versus a team that includes Ronaldo, Kaka, and Xabi Alonso. Barca were also able to [...]
Real Madrid sit atop La Liga after they beat Racing Santander 1-0, while Barcelona drew at Athletic Bilbao 1-1. Madrid played their tenth straight match without Cristiano Ronaldo, but Gonzalo Higuain’s goal in the 22nd minute was enough for the new Galaticos. Barcelona traveled to Bilbao, and in front of the fiery home crowd, Athletic [...]

Deportivo 1 – 0 Sevilla: Quite a different result from their last league match, where Sevilla knocked off Real Madrid.
Real Madrid 4 – 2 Valladolid: They can score, but the defense is looking a little suspect after having four straight clean sheets against lower-tier opponents. I think Madrid’s defense is the reason they won’t win [...]
