There is no comparison between Russian and Danish teams and the teams Mourinho has coached. May be it is a coincident that whenever Barca have come up against a Mourinho coached team there has been controversy. Maybe it is because Barca cannot beat a Mourinho coached team without playing dirty.
From the list you have mentioned only two coaches can be compared to Mourinho achievement wise, Del Bosque and Capello and during their reigns Barca were nowhere near Real Madrid.
To the contrary, against Mourinho coached teams Barca players try to get their opponent sent off to create an advantage and thus they go down theatrically at the slightest of touches.
You are forgetting Perdo, Masechrano, Villa, Pique, Adriano, with Barca it is not the normal case of having one or two players that dive. I am glad that their display in the first leg of UCL semi final ripped off the fake cover up of FC UNICEF and their real face was revealed to the whole world.
Football is a contact sport and tackles are a part of it, don't say Barca players do not tackle hard. At least our players do not try to kick the ball with the intention of injuring a spectator like Messi did.
Yeah right, with Ángel Mariá Villar as chairman of UEFA referee's committee who has always been backed by Barca when he was the president of Spanish Football Federation we can't expect referee's to favor Real Madrid
I am not saying others do not have flukes, i am saying this particular goal was a fluke. Having played the game myself i know that he was just trying to cut inside Ramos and shoot, he didn't aim for the top corner and certainly not with that amount of precision. 98 out of 100 times that would have gone over the crossbar.
See the video again, notice how the ball hit Khedira's foot and landed in the path of Messi. My point here is that before the Villa goal, Barca were looking clueless. They were playing long balls, their defenders were rushing into clearances, Tiki-Taka was nonexistent. Had we taken our chances we could have wrapped the game up in the first leg.
Not talking about the 2nd leg, in the first leg the ref failed to point to the spot at least 3 times against Barca, he missed out Abidal handling the ball twice and once when Valdes nudged Ronaldo. So any team that goes against Barca are playing 11 against 14.
Russian and Danish Teams play a much tougher flat defence and man marking,they are physical much bigger and stronger than any of Mourinho's teams and also play rough and tackle hard much more than any of Mourinho's teams.But Barca neve rtry to dive in those games.
Barca have beaten Mourinho's teams fair and square many times and if his teams end up with a red card,it is because of his own fault where he encourages his players to cross a line and play dangerous,somehow nobody has complained against barcelona than mourinho.
You forgot Schuster whose team beat us 4-1 and capello's team scraped through in the last minute and even Del Bosque's teams never beat us that much as mucha sthey won.
Manuel Pellegrini's team were the bets team to have troubled Barca in the past few years much more than any other team of Madrid.
Mourinho's teams we have thrashed 5-0 at the Nou Camp,which no other coach got and Pellegrini's team did pretty well.
In the past with Chelsea Drogab/Del Horno got sent off for their aggressive play and yeah,Motta got sent off wrongly but thats a one off situation.
There have been 3-4 otehr games where there was no red cards,2 more against Chelsea and 2 more against Inter.
we again thrashed Inter 2-0 with kids like Bojan and Pedro running circles around his Centerbacks.
I dont think anyone's face was revealed,people still love Barca for playing great football.The first leg of UCL just burst Mourinho's bubble and even Madrid legend Alfredo Di Stefano criticized Madrid's game calling it a mouse vs lion game and said he has never seen a team play so cowardly in their home game.Perhaps u should read more about these things.
Football is a contact sport but contact is incidental not the intention.The primary contact is the ball and if you only try to make contact with the opponet's shins,there is no excuse in football for that.
Oh you are giving me Villarato bullshit?I can carry on and on about refree and institutional favours Real Madrid have got in all their history,my lifetime may not be enough for it.
so what if there is a fluke?It is still a goal,i have seen Madrid win so many games undeservedly 1-0,that if we start going on about ifs and *****,there would be no end to all this.
Yeah barca were very rusty in the first leg and they could not get the passing game on but that was normal as the midfield had Keita,Iniesta and Thiago, and not Busquets and Xavi.Then why didn't Madrid take advantage of that.
Khedira put the ball to Messi's path but Messi still had to get around Pepe and beat Casillas,as if that is easy.why are you so desperate to discredit a goal?
That way i can give an excuse for every goal Barca concede,whats the point?Goals do happen due to some mistakes,so what?
The only thing i can remember about the first leg was Valdes obstructing Ronaldo but it was very naturally done and is difficult for the ref to see and anyway Marcelo clearly fouled pedro,which was a penalty too.
And at last,somehow Madrid is the only club which complain about Barca this and that.Other teams are graceful in defeat and so are Barca who stayed on the pitch for the ceremony for the Copa Del Rey unlike Madrid who rushed back to the locker room like pussies.
