I hate their game so much that I don't care at all if that pen. was real or not. We could have scored most lousy, shitty, unfair goal...I wouldn't care at all.
They are killing football.
Agreed.
Many fans are brainwashed by English/epl biased media and keep underestimating Atletico all the time. Same team that chew and spat out Chelski last season. Mighty epl leaders btw
Atleti created nothing for the second time in 10 days and Barca were clearly better and created enough under circumstances.
If you can't be happy just try to remember when was the last time we beat Diego Simeone's team before this season.
As for the ref, it continues to puzzle me how every time in last 5 years refs pick a lenient criterion when we face thugs from either side of Madrid.
Great win and well done to Lucho and the boys.

Solid performance from our team. But i start to get really worried about Suárez. It seems he doesn't think fst enough in some situation and his passes are very inaccurate. If he could manage to fix this out I'm sure his goals will come, and with Suárez, Messi and Neymar in top form, we can achieve a lot. I also think our defence played good tonight, but we mustn't forget that it were only a few good games right now. We still have to improve, but I think we are in the right direction.

Mandzukic got carded too? Great. So that's Godin, Mandzu, and Juanfran out of the Calderon game.

Them needing a goal means they have to attack and open up, with no Godin in defence we can definitely hit them first and get that goal so they would need 3, which they wont get if our defence is as solid as tonight.

Our defending has improved a lot imo. We are not conceding in set pieces against team like atletico even with masch as CB. Midfield slowly turning out be decent. This is one of those games where you need to bury your chances and play with more urgency. We did not finish our chances initially and atletico made it difficult as the match progressed. Without an early goal it is almost impossible to break a bus. They will never come out to attack without going down leaving our players to beat 2 lines of defenders for every attack, almost no counters opposite to last match.

Yes, their game will be different when we play them in Madrid. We played very well, although Suarez is once again not worth the money we spent on him (ok, blame the coach). we can play even better in the next game.

Mandzukic did not get carded afaik. Godin is the only one suspended, juanfran is not suspended. Even then it is a great news.

No i don't think so, it did not show up in the stream and it is not there in whoscored.com too. Referee was talking to mandz during that free kick about something that i remember.

Mandzukic no yellow. Juanfran has yellow but I think he can play. Godin is out for sure and considering the fact that he is the commander and chief of Atleti bus, it should be enough. The pressure is now on Atleti, they have to change their tactics, because with existing tactics they were not able to create anything serious against Barca for the second game in the row. That might unsettle them and create lot of pressure since it looks like the CDR and the Ligue are fading away.
