IceDaNemesis: The person won't respond They are cheating bitches! Everytime getafe got the ball the stupid ref blew the whistle He even had the guts to blow the final whistle when the getafe striker was one on one with the barkar goalie. May sango kill any barkar fan that trolls here for the next 1 month! |

mcfarlin:keep quiet, I responded earlier on how we were cheated, but I know we also played badly so I edited my post, its up there. why weren't we given a penalty, so a player is now doing d job of a keeper, Madrid would have been given one. so many wrong offside calls against us. I know we played badly, only messi did well today but we were also cheated, its not an excuse but a fact. |

Fifa only listen when Madrid do the talking As the two sodden sets of players trudged off the waterlogged field after Saturday’s second Club World Cup quarter-final in Rabat, alarm bells were already ringing. Six hours of incessant rain and two matches in quick succession had turned an already churned-up surface into a veritable mudbath. There was clearly no way it would be in any state to host another match on Tuesday, but then it was never really fit for the second game on Saturday either. There was, though, one crucial detail that differed between the two scenarios. On Saturday it was only Cruz Azul and Western Sydney Wanderers being affected. It didn’t matter to FIFA that it was sending out two sides to re-enact a game of water polo rather than play football. Who are those tiny clubs with their instantly forgettable players to doubt the mighty governing body’s motives? But Real Madrid are different. They have Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, James Rodriguez and Iker Casillas. FIFA is willing to bend over backwards for them, and once word spread from Spain that Madrid were in touch with the governing body regarding a switch it was no surprise that confirmation soon followed. While it is the sensible decision to have moved Tuesday’s semi-final between Madrid and Cruz Azul to Marrakech, it came 24 hours too late for Tony Popovic’s Asian champions. "You can’t control nature: when it rains, it rains. But if the pitch had been up to standard it wouldn’t have mattered," the Australian coach complained immediately after his side’s 3-1 loss. And Popovic was exactly right. Even in Wednesday’s opener, under a cloudless sky after days of bright sunshine, the ball ran true only a small percentage of the time The pitch had not been correctly prepared for a major tournament, during which four games would be played in six days, despite the three years’ notice Moroccan officials were given of their hosting the competition. The customary pre-match training sessions were all moved away from the stadium, but that was never going to be enough. Popovic and Azul coach Luis Fernando Tena both expressed concern over the conditions before their head-to-head with the rain pouring down, but nobody paid any attention. It was only when Real Madrid piped up that FIFA listened. That should never be the way. It was clear to everyone that there was no way Ronaldo would be expected to attempt to play on that surface, especially not with further storms on the way. But why are Labinot Haliti or Hugo Pavone, Akram Djahnit or Tim Payne any different to Ronaldo? Each one of them has the same right as the Portuguese star to be presented with the best possible conditions in which to ply their trade, especially when this is meant to be the pinnacle of world club football. Semi-finalists Auckland City were even forced to check out of their Rabat hotel at the unusually early time of 9am on Sunday in order to give staff extra time to prepare the red carpet for Madrid’s arrival more than eight hours later. Ronaldo | He and Madrid are not entitled to special treatment Perhaps the New Zealand football federation should ask that FIFA’s bigwigs be treated with similar disdain when they arrive to oversee the Under-20 World Cup in the south pacific next June? Ronaldo might well be the best player in the world and Madrid the greatest club on the planet, but they have no more right to a flat, green surface and comfortable surroundings than anybody else. If the Rabat pitch was not good enough for Real Madrid, then neither was it good enough for the five teams that had already been sent out onto it. Real are blameless here - they have every right to raise their concerns, but smaller teams should also command FIFA's ear. Football is meant to be played on a level playing field, yet in more than one sense that has been proven not to be the case over the past week. FIFA has spent the last decade trying to promote the Club World Cup as the best of the best. Yet it leaves itself with impossibly short turnarounds, closing off routes for contingencies. It fails to recognise a dreadful pitch in good time for something to be done to rescue the integrity of the fixtures played on it. And it only listens when a select few holler. President Sepp Blatter bangs on regularly about the “football family”, but it is clear who FIFA’s favourite children are. http://m.goal.com/x/en/news/7090702 now i understand why refs are always against barca |

tho I'm a barca fan, I still need to post this Real Madrid triumph inevitable in uncompetitive Club World Cup The usual platitudes were peddled about, of course. "All of the teams here are champions", "We must take each game step-by-step", "Our opponents are tough", "We need to be humble and work as hard as in every other game". But what Pepe and Carlo Ancelotti both knew as they spoke at Monday’s media conference in Rabat is that there is no way Real Madrid will not win the Club World Cup. They just couldn’t say that. Anything short of a pair of convincing victories at this tournament would be a huge embarrassment for the Spaniards, and a failure to see the job through would represent one of the biggest upsets in recent football history. They are quite possibly the most overwhelming favourites any tournament has ever seen. With every plastic question about the strength of Tuesday’s semi-final opponents Cruz Azul came an equally artificial answer. Pepe knew it, Ancelotti knew it, and everyone else in the room knew it. The rampant inevitability of a Blancos triumph is so overpowering that the rest might as well go home now. There is simply no competition in this competition. Normally there would at least be the chance that complacency might set in and that somebody would be able to mount a challenge stern enough to capitalise. But that is pie-in-the-sky talk in this case. A Madrid side putting in only 40 per cent effort would still bring home the bacon. Were Madrid about to step onto the paddy field in Rabat on Tuesday, then you never know what might have laid ahead. Instead they are on a comparatively untouched surface in Marrakech, a pitch primed for them to go out and do their stuff with Cruz Azul little more than unwitting bystanders. The real triumph for the other teams in this competition is to earn the right to play against the likes of Ronaldo, Bale and Benzema not to actually win the tournament. They are realistic enough to admit there are two completely different levels of football on show here. Cruz Azul will go home with their memories and the right to tell their grandchildren that they played against Real Madrid. San Lorenzo and Auckland City will fight it out for the chance to do the same. And on Saturday night, Madrid will lift the Club World Cup for the first time. There is surely no other possible result. http://m.goal.com/x/en/news/7114402 |
