Real Madrid beats Barca, Goes 7 Points Clear

On the 36th minute of the first half, Baptista gives the ultimate gift for Real Madrid manager, administration, players and fans. An amazing pass from Ruud Van Nistelrooy met with right-footed shot by Baptista to go through from the edge of the area to shock Victor Valdes, Frank Rijkaard, and the Barcelona fans.

What Barca fans say, and the Video Highlights after the jump…..

Real madrid played well, they effectively prevented Barca from attacking, Iker Casillas made couple of fantastic saves, but the defense line also should be congratulated on a very good display.

Barca just seemed so tired even before the match started, Ronaldinho and Eto’o just were not in it 100%, Ronaldinho tried and tried but still didnt seem in form. The only Barca player that I can say that was good was Iniesta.

Every Barca fan I have spoken to since yesterday keeps saying the same thing “Barca lost because Messi was injured”, if that is your way of thinking, and that is how you see it. Great, keep kidding yourself like that, maybe you will be able to sleep in the night

Here are the highlights:

Jens Lehman gives German fans the finger!

Jens Lehman supposedly gave the middle finger gesture to Germany’s fans during the match against Cyprus where they won 4-0 against them. The fans where chanting for Robert Enke to replace Lehman on the pitch. Now if he really did it or that he was only scratching his face, i don’t know, but the German media is sure that it was a rude gesture and they wont back down.

Of-course he denied these accusations, and of-course the president of the GFA stood beside him and gave his support stating “I will stand up for him here, He knows there’s no reason to make gestures that could hurt fans. I know he respects the fans”.

Jens Lehman already have enough controversies, since he was dropped from first choice in the start of the season in Arsenal and was replaced by Manuel Almunia, he criticized both Almunia and Wenger several times and announced that he is leaving Arsenal in January.

I like Lehman, he was part of the team in Arsenal who spent a full season with no defeats, remember that ?, so i really hate to see him go from arsenal, at least not like this. But since his flare-up with Oliver Kahn we know what kind of personality he has. So i don’t dismiss that he actually might have done that gesture, and if it was found that it was deliberate, i think we have seen the last of Lehman on both German National team and Arsenal.
