@neumi17 I'm not sure if you're just blind or something. Messi dribbles won: 4. Pedro dribbles won: 0. Pedro got a yellow card. Messi had more key passes, more touches on the ball, more accurate crosses and more accurate through balls, all of which are honestly more important than 3% better pass accuracy or 1 shot on goal. The 4 dribbles won vs 0 are obviously the most important stat in this comparison. Next time try thinking harder before posting.
Pedro and Messi 1 goal, Pedro more shots on goal and betreffen Pass accuracy. But Messi 8,3 and Pedro 7, 8...WHY ? ?
Laporte was really impressive in this match, bright future ahead for him.
No Mike, not in my experience, sorry bud.
Do I still win my bet if I selected Sanchez? As messi was not an option
I think that alexis, even though he is a great worker, hes a way to big of a mark, because that crossbar that he hit shoul have been a goal.
thank god we won
Well didn't see those two goals coming
Aduriz has been a threat all night.
Seems alves has turned out to be a flop. Well just saying he is a shadow of himself
This ref (as with most La Liga refs) has the policy: average foul by Barça player = yellow card, violent foul by Bilbao player = nothing! So logical.
Which Navas are you talking about? @commando
Is it me or has Fab become benchwarmer?
Its a stigma barca carries playing vital part in their success
Some pple can't just stop with the ref ranting. That joke is really getting old. U guys should try something new.
All that bilbao needs is a keeper for CL campaign , Navas would be great
come on bilbao...support!
Rico is a hard-worker , he is not 100% quality nor primed up his game but his crucial fragments of experience can add a detail which can sum up the match's fate
5-0
how good is mikel rico? i find him average at best but media always reiterates his contribution. He is from basque country so he was bought as bernat's replacement but i dont see enough quality in him to make it on merit.
0-2 , should be a good game if ref doesnt intervene. Valverde shall work his magic
0/0
3-1 for Barcelona. Double for Sanchez and Iniesta.
Barcelona to WIN---> 2-1

2-0 for Barca

0-1 Bilbao.
