Congrats to him,but even if he reaches di Stéfano record ,the difference in appearance between them is huge

Yeah, and IMO that makes Di Stefano and Ferenc Puskas unreplaceable at Madrid. No matter, congrats to Raul for his magnificent career.

The media needs to stop fucking with me!!!! First Milan, now Valencia - just make one of them happen :proud:

Edit: Now that the groupism has worn off a bit, I wouldnt be happy to see Banega leave Valencia permanently - but ah what i would give to add that Crespo '9' Valencia jersey next to the Milan '11' Crespo jersey. That is probably one of the few things that could make Banega leaving a little less bad.

Crespo needs to change clubs badly, I think hes stupid to remain in the first place, obviously he had no chance under Mourinho who never liked him and with so many strikers ahead of him. Im not sure Valencia is the best choice, I can see him doing great there, he can play good in almost any club, but I think they need a playmaker before anything, we discussed this earlier, and David Silva is now the Valencia PM, but he is not a natural one imo.

Well Rafael 'Im-super-fickle' Van der Vaart had posed with the Valencia jersey saying he would LOVE to play there and it was a DREAM move for him would have been the ideal person.
Morientes is leaving this summer - he has said that, and Crespo is basically exactly the same sort of player that Morientes is. He still wouldnt start if everyone was fit though, so its not the place to go if he wants guaranteed starts.

Atletico 0-1 Real Madrid
v. Nistlerooy 1'

Damn, that didn't take long!

Charbel · Oct 18, 2008

Van Nistelrooy's Goal

Just Like last year's First Derby..A Goal very early!

Atletico's down to 10 men after Perea receives a red card for slapping Sneijder.

Giancarlo · Oct 18, 2008

Atletico, a team I liked, is having quite a few problems. Perea... what was he thinking?

Lisa · Oct 18, 2008

v. Nistlerooy gets a straight red for a tackle on Maniche; I think it was a little payback for the hacking he's received all game long. IMO, the ref is losing control of this game.

Wow... Nistelrooy got straight red?

I don't know what it is really. Anyone playing against Atletico in their stadium... well there will be tons of red cards involved. And Atletico themselves... whenever I see red cards involving them it doesn't surprise me. I do like Atletico though...

Of course this game is on a channel I don't have (GolTV)... grr... $10 more a month for the whole packet... not really worth it. I'm not a huge fan of the Spanish league.

Atletico 1-2 Real Madrid ft

So far Atletico has 3 yellows and 1 red, and RM has the 1 red given to RvN; and, being the Madrid derby I wouldn't be surprised if the second half is more of the same.

Simao has tied it at 1 with a sweet freekick, Casillas didn't have a chance. The ref has added 6 min of injury time.

Higuain wins it for Real Madrid with a last min pk.

Go atletico! I hate Real... Simao... forgot about him... wish I could see this...

This is kinda odd...

One goal in the way beginning, and one at the way end..

Edit: Ah fucking real.

dev1L · Oct 18, 2008

deserved win, stupid referee...that red card for Ruud was a joke. I didn't see it clearly but i think that his second "goal" was regular...see what is football, Barcelona owned them in 8 minutes and Real also had chance but too bad that shot from Sneijder didn't go in

Charbel · Oct 18, 2008

Madrid Derby

Athletico Madrid 1 - 2 Real Madrid

1' Ruud Van Nistelrooy
96' Higuan

90' Simoa
2 Missed Chances For Real Madrid

Nice Match, generally.
Funny how things go...
1 Goal at 34 Seconds.. 2 More Goals In Stoppage Time!(Or Just Near It)

It was a goal, the linesman blew it; as a matter of fact, the whole officiating crew was IMO pretty bad.

Kuzimoto · Oct 18, 2008

respect to Real!!!
i loved it!!!! :star:

and what a goal by Ruud!!!!!! :eek:

radioactivenerd · Oct 18, 2008

Aguero is becoming more and more the sort of player that vanishes in big games. He was non existant vs Barcelona, and did nothing special today either.

Higuain meanwhile, has just developed beautifully since leaving River. I thought he left a bit too early, but thankfully hes been able to step up to the plate at Madrid.

Its that River Plate class showing through again - Aguero could use some of it!

Az. · Oct 19, 2008

Sad that Atleti lost..but what a goal by rud...the guy is top class..

Nothing personally, they just have bad luck for being city rivals to 'most successful club in spain'. Thats why pathetico, because they are like that most of the time...

have to quote myself

If it wasnt for the stupid card-happy ref and his blind assistants the result would be way bigger in the end.

Valencia are beating Numancia 1-0 David Villa scored.

Villa just had a second goal dissalowed for offside.

He hasn't recovered from his injury yet, didn't travel with the team.
