MAD !!! That's all I can say. Real Madrid got kicked from Copa competition by their rival Barca after the game ended with 2-2 tie. Satisfy ?? Of course not, especially when I knew that Barca didn't win it fair and square, (unlike the first leg) but with the help of the referee.
I knew Barca will win no matter what when Ramos goal, that supposed to be Madrid's first goal, got disallowed by the ref with a weak reason. Ramos goal started from a corner kick, where he succeeded hit the ball with an accurate header and score. But about a mili second before that, the ref blew the whistle and decided that Ramos made a foul before the header. The decision quickly turned head to us Madrid fans. Are you kidding me ?!?! What kind of foul ?? Even the commentator confused with ref's wrong judgement.
Earlier, the ref pretended that he didn't see when Busquets made a handball (which should get him a yellow), and later, Abidal also made a handball, but the ref ignored it. For me and the TV commentator, we got the advantage to see it through a slow replay.
But even with the unfair judgement, Real Madrid still won't give up, and keep fighting. And it finally paid of with CR goal in minute 68th. 4 minutes later, it was Benzema who doubled the point.
Madrid players gave it all out, and made Barca players looked miserable on the match. As Madrid showed their real power and started to beat Barca, I was scared that the ref would do something to harm them. And it proved to be right. On his way to score the third goal, Benzema got dropped in the penalty box by Puyol after he grabbed Benzema's shirt and pull him down. But the ref again did nothing, where he supposed to reward Benz with a penalty shot.
Even with 5 minutes left, Real Madrid kept doing their fast manouver. This was when the ref felt the danger for (his fave team) Barcelona, and decided that it has to stop. He did stop Madrid by giving Ramos his second yellow, when Ramos won a save challenge with Busquets. I noticed this because the tv played over and over again, and the commentator also think that the ref made a terrible mistakes.
With 10 men and out of concentration, Madrid started to lose the game. It was over for them.
I noticed the ref was being easy with Real Madrid in the first half, when he saw that they weren't a threat for Barca. He saved the harsh judgement for last.
Saluut for Madrid players for keep fighting until whistle blows.
