Oh please.

Not pissed at being slapped?
He has been called many things and has taken a lot of abuse from some turkish fans so I doubt it was the words.

Of course, he was angry at being slapped. But he really loses his shit after sometime when he was getting restrained. That was right after they were saying something to each other. You can also see Higuain getting really angry when Mascherano was holding him back. I think that has something to do with words exchanged...

His fault for running so fast from his goal that he was already instigating sh*t before the tackle even happened.

özil started almost crying when villa gave him a "slight shove" twice...

Villa pushed/slapped Ozil like a sissy girl for not giving him attention.

Actually Villa did. Ozil looked back at him and he pushed/slapped him again. LOL

And Villa ran like a Nancy boy. priceless.

Watch the video on this link its from a much better angle..

It wasn't a slap, villa pushed özil twice(the 2nd one was on the face). And thats enough to make someone so mad that they almost starts crying?

Nope, özil started it when he shoved valdes. Villa just wanted to talk to him because he shoved valdes.

Ozil look want to cry, lol

Was really evil by Villa...

I loved Higuain shoving Ozil out of the way to have a go at Villa.

Then he got no attention from Ozil then He became a She lol.

I already watched that video dozens of times i know what happened lol. You really can't justify Villa's actions here(If you are of course).

You really can't justify Oziel actions here(If you are of course).

I am not. I am just saying that it wasn't Villa who started it, it was özil. And you can't justify özil's actions here either who was as cowardly as his manager and pushed someone who wasn't even paying attention to him..

Both of them lost the plot and both of them deserved the red card..

Ahem

You really think that was a malicious push? If so, you must be so sensitive.

Why don't we call Mascherano a douche too for dragging Higuain? Or Pedro? Busquets? Casillas? Xavi? Khedira? Carvalho? they were pushing everybody in the middle too.

Jesus Christ, Ozil was just there shoving people in a brawl like everybody involved in that sausage fest.

Anyway both saw red. And rightly so. I'm not gonna argue anymore.

It was as malicious as villas was. Both were nothing, only difference is one started to almost cry..

Really?
You realise that lasers are shined outside of madrid and barcelona right?
Can't blame any individuals... Why don't we blame Stoke fans for inventing the "boo"while we're at it?

Marcelo went waaay overboard. That was crazy. I'm just talking about the hard tackling and sometimes getting a yellow (not straight red lol). You don't try to hurt players... you just want them to feel you and understand the price.

Then it all depends on 1 thing, how hard are your brutal tackles? Like what pepe does on messi in the copa final/champions league 1st match or what? If your hard tackles WILL hurt and MIGHT injure, then it is too crazy a price to dish out on people

If you dive, you need to be aware that physical tackles are coming. There are so many ways, i can't go into all of them. There's always a risk of injury to some extent... but normally, there are no bad injuries. Just a knock. But that's the price you pay for diving. Watch the classico games looking for this. You often see the physical tackles coming after playacting. It's an eye-for-an-eye thing. Pepe is a bit of a hothead at times (a lot actually) and goes too hard... his actions mostly have purpose though. I can tell just by watching.

If the potential price is too much to pay, the diving party needs to stop. It's simple.

Well if you so called hard tackles are the non-pepe level one then I can agree with you. Only thing is Madrid's tackle (mostly from pepe, arbeloa, ramos and marcelo andyway) are pepe's level, which is too hard.

And actually I doubt that the diving stops, the tackling will, because I remember in one of those games (think was the classico UCL 1), in the 1st few minutes the brutal tackling already started before the 1st dive. If anything, I only see it as an excuse to tackle harder and then stand on the moral high ground lol

Each fan base will see it differently. I personally saw it as setting the tone for the officiating: Wanted to set a physical standard. Again, it was smart tactics.

Bottom line is that the refs should punish both harshly and it would be over. If they miss something, then they should watch video and sanction after the game. But because diving has been getting worse and worse for over 20 years and finally perfected by Barca without true sanctions, the defenders are taking it into their own hands.

Madrid always took the high road on these things until Mou. We were going to win regardless of the cheating and do it the right way... But Mou convinced Flo that we need to fight fire with fire. You extend diplomacy... but if that fails, you wage full out war.

lool you are going to be REALLLY surprised at what cesc can do lol. bt anyway xavi is still there though, and for at least 3 more years.

Xavi shouldnt be playing now, his achilles heal is in not so good shape. However sport medicine in barcelona is so advanced I wouldnt doubt it if he was able to play until he is 55.

Fabregas is a great talent, but I believe he will change how barcelona play. He is will attack more than xavi, he is not as cold and calculated as xavi is. Barce will take more risks with him, hopefully it will result in more goal to goal action in the games.

(0:22) Did Mou do what I think he did?

Discuss fellas

What exactly did he do ? I could not see it too well but it looked like he threw a punch ?

It was madness that game.

he punched ibrahimovic's father? (joke) ??? :?:

^ Looks like he dragged his foot across Cesc's head.

Absolutely shameful if it really happened...

Oh I see that now, he sort of wiggled his foot oddly though it is hard to tell. That is dispicable if it is true.

Maybe the Chelsea-Arsenal rivalvry still lives.
