main plate the tasty VALENCIA - FC BARCELONA clash. A serious
game overall as Barça was risking that arch rival Real Madrid close in
on its points advantage, while Valencia wants to cement its
Champions League place on the table.
FC BARCELONA started firm & confidently but kept smashing into
the Valencia wall, until MESSI scored Barça´s first goal in the 23rd min.
This woke up Valencia who took over the game & found "5 Golden
minutes" that started in the 43rd min with the equalizer from MADURO
followed 2ºmins later by another for Valencia from PABLO
HERNANDEZ (pictured below).
Things were looking grim for Barça as they were lossing, while we are
sure those in Madrid were rubbing their hands with glee. Valencia pulled
in their defence & it was solid defending, & nerves in the Barça camp.
Coach Guardiola brought on Thierry Henry mid way to shake things up,
& hocus pocus, the magic worked when THIERRY HENRY saved his side
& equalized in the 86th min. FINAL RESULT: 2-2
If Real Madrid can win tomorrow Sevilla Fc the points gap will be only
4 points, with the following game in 7 days time "El Clasico", the derby
off all derby´s that may settle eventually the title. However, Madrid
must ensure it wins tomorrow.
MALAGA & DEPORTIVO played a 1-1 draw, with goals coming from
LUQUE for Malaga in the 32th min & SERGIO in the 50th min.
However, Malaga could have won when APOÑO was awarded a
penalty in the last minute, but he failed to score!
ALMERIA won last placed NUMANCIA 2-1. The scorers for Almeria
were UCHE in the 5th min & SERRANO in the 41st min. For Numancia
GOIRIA managed a consolation goal in the 81st min. Special mention
to Almeria forward NEGREDO who put in a great game serving with
passes both of his teams goals.
