Kroos has been putting in a shift defensively, Valverde has no idea how to play in a double pivot

Here i was asking to have him subbed off for a lackluster first-half....
Much, much better start from Real Madrid in this second half, the goal set some minds straight and Barcelona looks confused. Kounde isn't smart on this second goal.
Ha! Ha!
It's a penno, yes.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
0-3
In case anyone forgot, this is the best defensive team of all time we are facing, i mean, they aren't really, but statistically they are.
Honestly if we don't pump 5 past them tonight we never will
They don't look for such things.
Asensio on for Rodrygo.
Lighter on the pitch...
Araujo gets to rough up Vini all he wants, but nobody else
The ref
Also Araujo is soooo good, fecking hell. Rolls royce of a player

Barca are bad without Pedri. Benzema’s career since Ronaldo left Madrid has been astonishing.
Benzema was not offside there.
What a shame, Asensio is a pretty good finisher but it was a very good save by Stegen.
We are cursed to never trash Barca, that was the chance to make it happen.
Edit : It might actually happen!

Finally
Btw, Camavinga is an absolute beast of a player 
What a pass from Vini, the cheek.
I just realized, what's going on with Benzema's hand?! Must be bandajed for years or so I feel. It's that his shtick or what?
He scored a hat trick now.

That was a great, great pass.
Karim with a hatty
Filth
But tbh feck off Barca
Camavinga's vision and passing get me hard. There i says it

We have something to look forward to at the end of the season, CDR-final, its been so long.
It might get even better with UCL, but at least we have something definite to prepare for now.

Well deserved win by Real Madrid we gotta admit.
Osasuna will be the real task. Always struggling against smaller teams in this cup
Thanks, and you deserve the league title also, we just lacked consistency there.
Barca will be happy they won the Liga Classico. This cup is unimportant but they could have really gone into meltdown and blown the league if they lost that match.
Horrible night.
1st part wasn't bad, just unlucky at the end.
2nd was horrendous. The team totally fell with the goal, no reaction at all.
We were missing too much Pedri-Dembele-DeJong-Cristensen. Very important players.
I totally dislike Osasuna, so I won't probably watch the final. No matter who wins I will be sad

No, the league game was important, but not that important.
If you barely can concede a goal against the average league side, how do you expect RM to catch up 6 points?
I've long since given up the league, so this was the most important win by far imo.
Yeah it's unlikely Madrid would have taken the title but you could still see Barca actually go into meltdown and throw away the title if theh had such a result in that game.
Ramadan Benzema is built completely different
Always nice to see Barca beaten.

Sure, that result hurt, i won't deny.
But now we have a CDR-final to look forward to, i will take that, and perhaps you don't know, its been 9 years since last time since we have been there.
As good a job as Xavi has done overall, he's still pretty woeful vs Big Teams in pretty much any cup competition. For a club that demands CL success, he still has a way to go.
