Rather irritating that the Madrid game isn't on Sky cause of the damn Carabao Cup. Will have to rely on streaming.

Sky are useless these days. BT have taken pretty much everything away from them. Super Sunday and the weekend La Liga action are the only things they do well.

That's nice. Apparently the technical report favoured the Besiktas ground, because of things like better centralised press facilities and more hospitality suites. Good that they managed to come up with a plan.
Besiktas ground? The one with 43.000 capacity?

That was a penalty against Marcelo
Meh, it could have been given but I don't really mind. Altough if it was the other way around and Marcello committed that foul we'd have FCBarca and a few others crying how corrupt this league is.

Ronaldo's backheel also touched some Betis player on the arm if I'm not mistaken but I don't mind either as these calls would have been pretty soft tbh.

It should be a penalty, but like a lot of awful/biased pundits say "He touches the ball"


You can get away with murder as long as you graze the ball

The ball went out of play whatsoever, Marcelo was never getting near it anyway.

I honestly don't mind these aren't given. Sometimes you get them sometimes you don't, that's the way it goes. I'm not going to think this ref is corrupt for not giving that to us.. unlike some of us if it were the other way around. How paranoid do you have to be to start thinking that way?

Just glanced through the teams, why is Asensio on the bench? Surely he's in a lot better form than Bale..

What the feck is wrong with Carvajal. He's ruined three attacks and given Betis a great chance just.

They've been trying to recover Bale to form and he just had a good game vs Real Sociedad. Makes sense to give him minutes to keep improving

Cheers. Seeing it's 0-0 probably more boos incoming at the stroke of HT tho. :lol:

Madrid have been awful, especially Carvajal (apart from that goal line clearance).
