8:55pm, Sky Sports One - El Derby

[Frutos]

Sorry to break into Crodonilson-esque hyperbole here, but tonight sees one of the biggest, some might even say the biggest, club football fixture in the world as Barcelona take on Real Madrid at Camp Nou.

Barca are bang on form and scoring goals left, right and centre, Madrid are stuttering all over the place but hoping Juande Ramos can turn it around.

I reckon the stage is set for a good'un tonight. Anyone else tuning in?

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Blue, purple and white?

 

[Beach Hut]

The Huts will be and looking forward to this and I fancy Real tonight

 

[Rookie]

Of course, will be all over by half time Barca to win with Eto'o (if he starts) getting a couple at least

If you don't have Sky Sports but do have an internet connection, there's audio commentary on Barca's official website, here:-

FCBarcelona.cat

I fall into the latter category and will follow proceedings with great interest

0 - 0 at present and Real are putting up an impressive defensive blockade.

 

[Beach Hut]

And the blockade continues, superb penalty save by Cassilas

 

[Beach Hut]

Barca finally breach the blockade and take the lead

 

[Frutos]

Great penalty save from Casillas, the first goal was scrappy as hell and Real got caught on the counter for number two.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Drenthe really should of put that one on one away, but Madrid tactics on Messi were absolute disgrace.

 

[Half Man Half Biscuit]

Shame there was no atmosphere. You have to go to either Real Betis or Atletico Madrid for that in Spain.

Real did as well as they could but class told in the end. A deserved win.

I'll be at Barca's next home match against Real Mallorca. I have to visit the in-laws so might as well coincide it with a match eh!?

 

[Il Duce]

Biggest club fixture in the world? Someone should have told the crowd. They're almost as quiet as us - and there's about 90,000 of them.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

Did it really finish 4-0?

 

[Frutos]

Did it really finish 4-0?

I think that was a predicted score, it actually finished 2-0.

 

[SNOOBS]

Messi is such a cock

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Messi is such a cock

To be fair tho, can't be easy being Argentinian and being called Lionel. Must be like being called Tim.
