Am glad Madrid were able to regain their pride in the most commanding way at a stadium were a lot of teams will fumble.
Nope Benzema's first goal was not a header. The ball was passed to him by modric at the edge of the box and he passed it into the net.
The last goal was not a solo effort as Vini was the one to carry the ball to him and make a great assist look like a simple pass to Benzema in the box to score from less than 10 yards.
I wrote it today after watching 2 night ago and you know madrid won the match and my barca was eliminated lol
It's really a exciting match as Real Madrid finally win 😪
The combination between Vini & Benzema is fantastic in recent years.
And I congratulated your team while I am crying to see my barca got lost.
Don't be sad man! Win or lost is a part of game.
I must say I didn’t expect Madrid to win this one. Especially with a one goal lead, I was convinced Barca would win.
Madrid showed they’re never out till the final whistle and to be honest, I’m happy Barca are out of another cup. Hehe 😉
