The quintessential classic of Spanish football has recently acquired new Carices by adopting different styles both teams, antagonistic, so different that the differences are accentuated. Today we faced at the Camp Nou Real Madrid and Barcelona, one to defend positions and one for assaulting. Football is great because there are many ways to play it and now Mourinho's team has shown that a style is effective not only if you use their strengths but also if you know to minimize the opponent. It was not the most lucid of the Madrid game, but one of the most effective and complete in its way: it has taken advantage of their chances and has prevented Barça develop his game. That's also football. 1-2 victory leaves the white team to a championship over increasing the gap to seven points with twelve.
It was a match for frills or saved in the newspaper archives show on the shelf, was a party slate of intensity, of pieces on the board, and this game was Mourinho who won the round by Guardiola. Resigned trivote, perhaps because Lass and does not count, but also the Madrid team was tactically very strong, rock that never was complicated in the balloons split, he knew Barca ring axis, the triangle formed by Messi, Xavi and Iniesta and in which Sergio Ramos and Pepe taught teachers from the center of defense. Possession was Barca, but Casillas just worried around the shock.
Guardiola tried to open the field with Taylor on the left and Alves on the right. Alexis started on the bench. Best Tello, but no luck in the final meters. Coentrao is confirmed as the antagonistic Marcelo provides little in attack, but was extremely effective in curbing the Brazilian. Meanwhile, Messi was always away from the area, away from the area where more damage can be done in the classic slacker who is remembered. Thiago was also heading to the detriment of Cesc, but the Spanish Brazil could do little more than their peers. Another point to consider: Pique was again a substitute in a key match.
The match began with demands for goalkeepers: Valdes stretched his best to a header from Puyol was more than Cristiano Ronaldo in a speech to the snapshot, and Casillas had to go for the ball to the edge of the area before it reached Alves. It was an illusion: both goalkeepers had a rather uneventful meeting. The party took place in a midfield where Guardiola had placed their bets with Busquets, Thiago, Xavi and Iniesta. Had the ball but the movements were predictable, slow, and drowning in his own idea, stretching to distort it. The Madrid is not complicated at any time to steal and look for the top as fast as possible.
It was the day of Di Maria and Ozil was now busier than usual in containment efforts. It was Cristiano Ronaldo who cared helped Barca behind a Benzema is a good scorer, but above all a great football player. Each has its ball touching why. But it was French or Portuguese who announced his team, but one so rare in these conflicts as Khedira, who took a rebound from Valdes after half way out to mark the opening goal. Adriano left foot back, which validated the German position. With the score 0-1, bet Mourinho took shape. Barcelona had a chance to tie it like a shot from Xavi to Messi's pass to Casillas stopped in a major intervention. But it was an isolated incident, as the Barcelona just found holes in the white behind.
The second half continued in the paths of the first, with both teams focused on their task. The Barcelona monopolized possession and Madrid sought the outposts of Benzema and Cristiano. The following Tello was well attended by Thiago, but the end Barca shot too high. Guardiola moved Alexis ushering tab by Xavi in a change that clearly showed what I needed for Barcelona: more depth and less touch. I could not do better bet, as the Chilean scored shortly after entering the equalizer after a series of unfortunate bounces for all Madrid.
Seemed to change the setting for a Madrid that would have to look back of goal, as the defensive bet seemed too long for what remained of the party. However, only three minutes later when the team needed him most, individual inspiration came from two of its best players: Özil assistance and Christian goal, much like so much that it will mark the return of the Cup, this time Pinto, now Valdes, who was not covered well, leaving free space at the top Luso. It is the third consecutive game in which Ronaldo scores at the Camp Nou. Old ghosts seem distant.
The second goal came when it seemed that Barcelona could turn the game around and dealt a heavy blow to the aspirations of Guardiola. After the second goal the Madrid felt safe in their bid and did not let out the victory. So, if the white team finally wins the league will have done with a stroke of authority beating his great rival in direct clash, on home soil. It will do well after beating a record of goals that has been overcome now 109, and may rise further until it is practically unattainable. The best possible way.
