Alright, so, once again, did any of you watched the game this morning? (2am-4am)
FCB line-ups:
Valdes, Puyol, Adriano, Pique, Montoya, Fabregas, Xavi, Busquets, Thiago, Pedro and Tello
Getafe line-ups:
Moya, Valera, Lopo, Alexis, Miguel Torres, Pedro Leon, Michel, Castro, Xavi Torres, Barrada, Colunga
The game kicked off quite goodly as there were 2 shots on goal (Tello & Thiago) & 69% possessions already on the 25'.
First goal was from Adriano, on the 32'; assisted by Fabregas. Great shot from the midfielder. 52', Mascherano came in for our captain; Puyol. Puyol's knee got injured; wish him well! 2nd goal, scored by Messi; came in for Thiago on the 59'. It was a penalty goal caused on the 74'; fouled by Valera on Pedro in the penalty box. One of an amazing penalty goal, Messi kicked the ball, Moya's right hand was actually touching the ball but I guess the ball was too hard that Moya can't stop it from getting into the net. Yes indeed Messi's penalty goals alway scores but at the same time, it gives me goosebumps too! LOL
Then after a short while, Messi scored another on the 78'. Great footwork coming from our wonder boy Messi! Assisted by Montoya on the right side of the field to Messi. Then again, after a short while, on the 80'; a goal for Getafe. It was Sarabia who kicked the ball but Mascherano somehow headed the ball into the net, wasn't on purpose, I'm sure Mascherano wanted to head the ball out not in - so yea, it was an own goal.
Then right on the 90'+1'; Villa who came in for Tello helped Barca with a goal! Great assist coming from Fabregas once again on the left side of the field. Villa was clear ahead, Moya started running out of the goal box & Villa kicked the ball - the ball went through Moya's leg and into the net! Great goal.
Great game! :) I don't know if any of you realize - all of Barca's matches, during the 1st half Barca don't score much, maybe 1/2 goals & it always gives me the blood rush. Then on the 2nd half only they start scoring like crazy & thats when I can only rest myself! LOL
I'm sure many of you are wondering where's Iniesta - he won't be able to be with us for 10 days. He has injured his knee during the FIFA matches. Well, wishing both him & Puyol well, soon!
The Game:
Enjoy!
