Former Real Madrid player and fan Morientes: "I'm ashamed of R. Madrid"

"As a madridista I am ashamed that they didn't stay until Barca received the trophy. When I was a player I liked it when they stayed whether they won or lost"

At least they're (mostly) getting criticized for off the field antics rather than on the field ones now

source would be good for starters.

madrid section

or barca section

anywhere but here plz

Morientes is the classiest spaniard I have seen, along with raul.

What great men.

They cant hold up others to their standards though, those two guys are special cases in history.

What would've happened if we stayed ? watching Barca's celebrate ?

Its simply good sportsmanship Pipita, if the brawl in the end didn't happen I'm sure some of the players would have stayed then left quickly rather than storm out.

agreed, brawl is to blaim here. That wouldnt taken the place, Im sure some of the madristias would have congratulated barca.

sport.es hehe, n.2 source of cule propaganda.

Would have been bad sportsmanship if there were medals. There werent, for both teams. So i dont see the point in stayin on the pitch.

Any team would have done the same.

well thats his opinion, but i as a player wouldnt even care, he does more harm that good by saying this, now it looks as if we are just plain wrong.

welcome to the forums armadillo i remember you

Pretty much reflects your teams mentality at that point.

Why does any losing finalist stay on, and show respect to the opponents that trumped them ?
They stay because they're not children anymore. But a schoolyard brawl like that deserves a schoolyard finish. I, for one, was really interested in how Madrid would receive their silver medals ...but clearly everyone's attention was elsewhere.

Well played by Marcelo then...in hindsight. He helped avoid experiencing the aftermath of a Final defeat, in front of all Camp Nou...and I'm sure many Madridistas are relieved that they didn't have to undergo that ordeal. Yes/No ? It's not easy to take defeat with dignity, like ManU did. Even we had our infamous sprinkler moment.

Ugly as the fight was..it was the perfect premise to not be graceful in defeat. I wasn't really surprised that Madrid players weren't on the pitch, just took it for granted. I'm not really criticizing..just making an observation..so hopefully this doesn't start a shit-storm.

Twas an epic two legs. Deserved a finale without blemish. Madrid put up an awesome fight, and Barcelona was merciless in its finishing...and it should've been rightfully acknowledged. Shame

It's called class.

Fernando Morientes (X- Real Madrid) :

“I am ashamed to see my former teammate Iker complain Fabregas had dived in Marcelo tackle".

"It is lamentable for the spirit of the game that Real did not stay back for the trophy distribution."

[Cope.es]

well as a barca fan i enjoy seeing other teams pissed off after losing instead of showing humility. makes the victory much more sweeter. i'm sure some barca players and fans would agree with me. so don't worry i wasn't offended.

Well there was no medal to be given so why should Real Madrid stay and watch their celebration ?

sport is a farca mouthpiece. so i find it a little hard to believe that morientes actually said that. also morientes is a club legend...remember the boos that ronaldo got when he took moreintes's place in the squad?? i dont think morientes would ever say that

The father of busquets?? No, he's not, the "Borat guy" is a Barça staff member.

Btw, it was the first time in any spanish federation final (Cup and Supercup) that the losing team didn't stay for the trophy handing.
