Iniesta who played the pass for the penalty shouldn't be even on the pitch. It was clear red card offense by him.
Funny how Catalan press is saying ref is the reason why Barca are out.
The funniest of all was that when Atlético was 1-0 up they began to say "this looks like another Stamford Bridge". Unconscious slipped. Yeah, luckily it wasn't another scandalous robbery for Barça to pass.
Semis have been drawn: Atlético de Madrid - Bayern München and Manchester City - Real Madrid.
The Real fans are already in their annoying valuation of rivals. It looks like this: "Do I know more than three players from the other team? No. Do I even watch their league? It doesn't matter I've never watched them, if I don't know more than two or three players they're a ****** team" So they're already saying Manchester City is a piece of cake (helped by the fact Pellegrini managed Real Madrid, which means they despise him). Except the handful that are saying Bayern would be even easier. Ffs.
Well, in basketball they got the quarterfinals against Fenerbahçe Ulker Istambul, with a great squad and managed by the best manager there is: Zeljko Obradovic, who's won eight Euroleagues. But since they don't watch Turkish league, all they know is Fenerbahçe has one ex-NBA player, Vesely, who's injured. So they started to bang on with "Fenerbahçe will be easy because they're missing Vesely" like he was the only player they had. They had a star team. They got former EL champion Ricky Hickman, very strong Ekpe Udoh, wonderkid Mahmutoglu, Pero Antic who's kind of irregular but is a rock and when he gets the good day he's deadly from any distance (he's also the second ex-NBA they have), Bogdan Bogdanovic who's a world class shooter, twice EL champions with Olympiacos and great point guard Kostas Sloukas, Nikola Kalinic who's a wonderful wrist and has a lot of talent, runner up in past World Championship with Serbia. And all of that lead from the bench by genius Zeljko Obradovic, won eight of the eleven FFs he got to IIRC (his first three he won [EDIT: He's been in fifteen FFs]). How the **** can they be easy just because they miss Vesely? They're still the huge favourites to win Euroleague this year, but you get Madrid fans (mostly the footballists I think) claiming they were easy. That is, until the series began and Fenerbahçe mopped the court with Real Madrid. I couldn't watch the first match, but WHAT A MARVELOUS MATCH DID FENERBAHÇE PLAY YESTERDAY!. Superb in every aspect of their play, showing the marks of an Obradovic team that make me love him as a coach (albeit right behind Aíto¹ García Reneses, another genius).
¹Aíto is a colloquial short of Alejandro. Alejandro -> Alejandrito -> Aíto. Not to confuse with Aitor, which is a Basque name.
