Racing vs Barca, A Lookback

It was great to see Barca making a winning start to a new season. Maybe it became much more sweeter with Real Madrid dropping two points on the opening week. Two points lead at this stage is not much but it may help in increasing the pressure on Real Madrid and their much celebrated new coach. The match itself saw quite a strange starting line-up. But it may be a sign of things to come. Many Barca fans have gone over board with their praise for the team. But for me the first half of the match was extremely poor. We were lucky enough to get an early break and then the second goal also was from the Racing custodian's mistake. We got the goals at the right times and that means that were were never troubled throughout the match. One have to admit the fact that Racing was a very poor in the match and lacked seriously interms of creativity while going forward. i haven't seen a match in which Barca players miss placed so much passes in the first half.

Now the latest is the Ibrahimovic story getting evolved wonderfully. No idea how this happened to develop into such a mess. Let's come back to that later. First the most brilliant event of these weeks - the astonishing comeback by Barca in the Super Cup. I have to admit that i didn't believe that we will overturn the 3-1 deficit from the first leg. First of all, most of the first team players were vacationing after a long World Cup campaign and weren't in the best frame of mind and the last time we were down 3-1 in a two legged tie we failed to overturn the deficit. But this time it was different. As far as the victroy at Racing is concerned, I think I might write an entire post on that match.
