interesting little fact that my OCD just caught. Barça have scored 20 goals in 6 Copa del Rey games, but no one has scored more than three goals.

vs L'Hospitalet (10-0 aggregate)
1st Leg: Iniesta (1)
2nd Leg: Pedro (1), Iniesta (2), Thiago (1), Xavi (1), Tello (1), Cuenca (1), Thiago (2), Tello (2), Cuenca (2)

vs Osasuna (6-1 aggregate)
1st Leg: Fabregas (1), Fabregas (2), Messi (1), Messi (2)
2nd Leg: Alexis (1), Sergio Roberto (1)

vs Real Madrid (4-3 aggregate)
1st Leg: Puyol (1), Abidal (1)
2nd Leg: Pedro (2), Alves (1)


well ... back to work now I suppose.

Leo will fix that.

Real Madrid have yesterday rejected the proposal of the federation to play the cup final at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. #fcblive [marca]

But the Spanish federation said no.

The reason why Real Madrid doesn't want us to play Cup final at Santiago Bernabeu -

[Maria]

Well, apparently Ro$ell continues to make an ass of himself and said today that he will only accept to play the final at Bernabeu..
I don't understand why he is giving such an importance to the venue of the final..it's not like Florentino would ever allow us to play at their stadium, so the only thing he accomplishes is to make our club sound desperate. And after all the efforts Laporta and Pep put into changing our mentality..it's sad.

Calderon (ex-president Madrid): "That Madrid doesn't allow the cup final to be played at their stadium is an action of a small club."

[xaviniesta]

I don't get this. Just fuck the Bernabeu.

We have better things to do than rubbing a Copa final in Madrid's face.

Just play the damn final at the biggest available stadium. If I were Bilbao I would accept the Camp Nou as the venue for the final, with the tickets split 50-50.

That would allow for a massive crowd, a great atmosphere, excellent playing surface and lots of revenue generated

The Spanish cup final will be played on Friday 25 May at Atletico Madrid's Vicente Calderon stadium #fcblive #copafcb [tv3]
