FC Barcelona v.s. Real Madrid.

Barcelona have started this match off very well as there were some chances including an almost goal for Messi before Xavi slots the first goal in the 10th minute. Iniesta's pass was beautiful if I may say so. Angel Di Maria gets a shot, nicely blocked by Valdes. Then, Villa has some space and launches the ball into the area, Pedro is there as Casillas is beaten to score. 2-0 Barcelona! The fans are having a blast thus far in the first half as Barca continue dominating the game. In the 32nd minute Cristiano Ronaldo gets booked for pushing Barca's coach, Valdes is also booked for getting involved. The Catalans are very protective of their coach! David Villa is also booked in the 34th due to a late challenge on Sami Khedira. And Pepe is also booked after putting too much pressure on Little Leo (Messi.) Real are starting to regain their form as the second half goes on, Barca are still ripping the Madrid team apart though. Messi and Villa both have attempts but Casillas is doing better now. Madrid have subbed Mesut Ozil out after a disappointing half for the Turkish German. Xabio Alonso is booked for a foul on Sergio Busquets in the 51st. Messi tries to work Xavi in for another goal but Khedira gets a foot on it, putting the ball off course. Xavi shoots wide. And Barcelona score a third in the 55th minute! Villa is the man responsible for Madrid's torture this time as Messi slices him in. David Villa simply knocks it home. Casillas gets carded in the 55th as well. And Villa scores again in the 58th! Messi is playing perfect as he passes from midfield, cutting the Real defence open and putting Villa in to nutmeg Iker Casillas to make things 4-0 here. Barcelona are showing off now and Real Madrid are falling apart. Tricks and flicks are on display now, Ricardo Carvalho has also been carded, in the 71st after hand-balling a scoring oppurtunity for Barca. Sergio Ramos gets a booking as well in the 73rd minute after taking down Xavi. Sami Khedira is also carded, in the 75th minute for a late challenge on Andres Iniesta. He got to the ball as fast as possible though, the German is just tired after having to chase Iniesta back and forth at the Camp Nou. It probably isn't his idea of a fun game! And Villa is now subbed off, Bojan Krkic comes on and almost immediately has a chance at goal where he has some trouble, gets the shot off, but he could have done better, Casillas blocks the ball away. And Puyol goes into the book too, in the 80th minute! His late sliding challenge on Karim Benzema gets him into the book. Another player who performed well today, Xavi, is subbed off in the 87th minute. Seydou Keita comes in probably hoping to put in another goal for the Catalan side. Pedro also comes off in the 87th as Jeffren comes on for him. And Jeffren puts a fifth in for Barca in the first minute of stoppage time in the second half. Bojan does very nicely, running down the right flank and lobs over a low cross that Andres Iniesta misses but then Jeffren converts! 5-0 Barcelona! Xavi recieves a yellow card and Sergios Ramos is sent off in the 3rd minute of stoppage time after going after Messi in an evil light, Ramos then pushes Carles Puyol! Real got slaughtered here. Barcelona were nearly perfect. Lots of cards tonight, lots of goals. Cheers!
