Extremely sloppy by Bilbao goalie&defender there, golden chance to win against Barca when the pitch is at this state, cant afford to gift away goals like that.
I only saw the last 20-25 mins, pitch conditions was lolsy, was pissed our game was cancelled, but in hindsight glad if it was prolly likely to look like that. Few mins of seeing it made me realize prolly a game worth missing.
It wasn't all that but it was nice seeing Barca almost lose. Ref did fuck Bilbao over but they have themselves to blame the most. If the GK had gotten to that ball, it would've been game over.

In a way, I get that, but still it that kinda puddle complicates things alot, and its not like Napoli isnt a physical/quick team like ours, to simply go for the bulldoze approach too.

Lucky Barca for the awful weather conditions. Bilbao simply couldn't play their game in such conditions and that went in Barca's favor. Still, despite being favored by the ref and mother nature, the chokers from Barcelona still couldn't win.
Messi was terrible. Ronaldo will quit football if he ever plays a match as bad as Messi's in Bilbao tonight.
It would been more telling if the point difference was more then 3 pts, but seen Real start out stronger before, and lose 7 pts lead, then never recover.
It's a bit different this time. Real are playing much better as a unit this season and I don't know why, but Barca are not as convincing and impressive as the past few years. Could be due to the players' fatigue or probably them being kind of unmotivated but I guess the fact that they don't have a plan B for when their possession football doesn't seem to work is finally getting to them as smaller teams are slowly learning how to reduce the efficiency of their main tactic.
Why did Barca pay out for Cesc and Sanchez, who they didn't really need instead of going for a fullback or a CB? Puyol is always injured and Abidal is cack these days.

I don't know, RM last year was playing the best football in the world for a while and i remember reading this thread and everybody was saying how they'll win the league until they get schooled in the Classico. You can see that Barca is just coasting, they usually pick up their form around December.
The difference this year is That their defence has been a joke, and they had a few ijuries.
In the end, the winner of the Classico will win La liga again and i don't RM has what it takes to beat them
