Undeserved. They've done nothing. But there you go.

weak penalty but oh well so far Real Madrid has been reduced to a hoofball team.

Yep, penalty that and highlights one of the problems with 3 at the back. Ball over the top will leave you exposed if there's a super quick forward running into the space.

Shouldn't have tugged him because there was nobody really supporting but I guess you hope for these in pre-season.

Bugger. Been the better side against Madrid yet find ourselves pegged back. Sound familiar?

People are getting too excited. Yes we are playing much better football than last season but i would still fancy Madrid to beat our first 11 with theirs in a meaningful match.

That's a shame as Keane is good enough to be a backup centre back but he's been pretty crap in pre-season which is all LvG can judge on.

Why is that though? I've heard college football is more popular than NFL, but by that much?
The NFL focuses less on gate volume than ticket price and auxiliary sales (merchandise, food, etc). College stadiums are far older and grow to handle the demand as a local entity. College stadiums focus on luxury sections for the high dollar stuff and mostly rely on large gates.
