Topic: LA LIGA !!!!

[Chris1987]

yes, probably Chris!

2 years ago for example in Semifinals Real Madrid was beaten at Zaragoza 6-1 and then Real Madrid defeated sat home Zaragoza 4-0.
They try to win but the so called small clubs are very dangerous in Spain.

What is your fav. spanish club?
What do you think about the love affair between England and Spain in soccer with Benitez, Ramos, Reina or Almunia....?
Is Torres like a new Beckham in England?
I like a lot Arteta from Everton!

I don't really have a favourite Spanish club but I'd have to say that the club I prefer most would be Real Madrid, there a team I've grown up knowing, I've had a shirt of therir's before and now I've been to the capital and have been on a complete tour of their Bernabeu stadium 
The love affair thing I wouldn't read too much into as Benitez has come into Liverpool and gradually brought a lot of Spaniards in, then a lot of the other Spanish players playing here now are quality players and whatever their nationality they'd be playing over here.
Torres certainly isn't like a new Beckham in England, yeah he's come here and is playing great football and has a good image but he's not anywhere near as famous or as marketable as Beckham, very few will ever be like a new Beckham.
Arteta at Everton is a quality player and a real star for them, they'll do really well to hold onto him, but if they do that'll be crucial for their progress forward as a team.

Lucky Chris! Bernabeu Stadium is a great stadium and you can see 9!!! Champion's Cup! I really like Real Madrid but it's not my fav. club in Spain. The stadium is located in one of the best neighborhoods in city centre, Chamartin in Castellana Avenue near Prado museum and Retiro Park!
1960 Champion's Cup final between Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt can be considered the most amazing display in Champion's Cup Finals: Real Madrid won 7-3!!! (4 goals Puskas, 3 Di Stefano) at Hampden Park with 130,000 watching! They comeback to win another title at Hampden Park in 2002, last one in Europe...btw a lot of Barcelona fans said the 5 titles in a row that Real Madrid won between 56-60 were easy bc of Manchester United plane tragedy.

Benitez is a great coach, should be next coach of Spain. Ramos has bad personality, he will never be able to comeback to Sevilla again, a traitor.
Torres is considered by spanish soccer experts as the most overrated player, a lot of marketing but not a great player.
And finally Arteta, I really like him, he will be soon play in a bigger club than Everton, I was shocked when he fought against Cesc bc they are good friends. Obviously Cesc is my fav. player!

Spanish King's Cup:
ZARAGOZA 3 - 1 Pontevedra
ALMERIA 1 - 1 Levante, dramatic match with Almeria scoring 1-0 in 91' and then Levante scoring in 95'.
Zaragoza and Levantw both in the last 16!
16 Primera Clubs will play to win the cup. Exciting!

And ive seen each one of them and everyone of their 30 League Championship wins, the museum was massive which you'd expect for a team thats won so much!

[conchita]

btw here are two videos of dramatic week 37 in last year liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona played at the same time.
with just one minute remaining Barįa was leader and favorites to clinch the title but suddenly all changed in the most dramatic 18 seconds the liga has experienced in history. Let's say all the country had a heart attack at the same time. Messi cheated but Tamudo rescued Real and became the top scorer in Espanyol's history in front of city rivals. Unforgettable.

enjoy!!

Yeah I remember watching this night and the ups and downs was incredible. Once Messi had done the Maradona which cost our country some years ago I knew who I definitely DIDN'T want to win the title. I always favour towards Madrid so I was glad to see them eventually prevail, especially in Beckham's and Roberto Carlos' last game.

[conchita]

that was an unforgettable night!!! especially a wonderful Espanyol performance with legendary captain Tamudo 

Capello was sacked because he didnt want Beckham. Madrid fans miss David badly

Maradona, the cheater started his personal problems in Barcelona and was sent to Napoli quickly.

Also because he failed to win the Champions League, which is ridiculous when he lead them to yet another title. Beckham is a miss for the Real fans but on the pitch there not missing him as they're playing better now I feel than they have for at least 5/6 years and the league title this season is there's for the taking with a nice points lead already!
