Malaga and Real Madrid
There will be classic. Other. It will be next week and will be because the party butler back in The Rose Garden Real Madrid showed that exceeded the tie during his epic comeback in the first leg. Malaga had then the possibility of sending the champion to the canvas with a surprising 0-2 and returned home in defeat. So much for the body when there is a marked difference of potential. Gone are the whites, who wore black in mourning without joy and without any quality bash.
But it was. And there will be classic.
The confrontation was steady most of the time and indefinite. During the first half of the mother lived in a constant jam offensive, led especially by overturning trivote fluency and Xabi Alonso scored important that such a thick dose of Kaka. The Brazilian returned to the ownership and was again replaced at the break. Renewed opportunity and not as an immediate measure is to rise to the occasion.
Mourinho left another sound sample that is not married to anyone and, on the other hand, saw the same thing that millions of followers: the performance of a player sterile, slow and none of the circumstances.
Anyway, Kaka was not alone responsible for 45 minutes touched mediocrity. The collective game was so bland that left only fruit dangerous shot into the net, drawn by Willy Caballero and which had an ugly epilogue Khedira injury. The baggage was poor in attack, something which does not shine too Malaga, at least in terms occasions. Loitering, that’s true, near Casillas, required in a left Eliseu dry. There were passages of strain Malacitana but little real risk. And they remained for some pearls of Isco retina, football all the way, one of those magical expectations that generate more refined palate.
So, the renewal brought a lot of mystery and nerve given the tightness of the tie.
At least it did until it was tremendous gift of Willy Caballero, who staged a monumental blunder weak low shot Benzema. The French striker almost had just entered the field and enjoy one of those periods in which if you go to the casino busting the bank. 0-1 and that’s it. Before that, Ozil had already shown that their fragility and flashing obstacle to overcome is by far the performance of Kaka. He gave the team approach and pause. Possession and doses, but not excessive imbalance. Moreover, the uncertain and still a tie, CR7 scored no head and three yards out because of Willy Caballero, sublime before his thunderous wreck.
Little would have been of remarkable if it were not for Arbeloa, cards and ended up seeing red for a girl who did not come to mind.
At that point, at the end, all that happened was interpreted with the classic giant magnifying glass that pops. Another one. Madrid will have to face alone and certainly without Khedira Arbeloa, forcing some kind of weird rinse Coentrao on the right side if Sahin continues its mysterious ostracism. He was still playing a game, but the end of Málaga arreón not involve any suffering because any longer thinking of Madrid walked buckle.
