Real Madrid Difficulties

Real Madrid could be having difficulties in their Championship Leauge game against the team of Lyon.   
"Johan Cruyff expects Real Madrid to encounter difficulty in their Champions League clash against Lyon, but believes the Spanish side will pull through.
Madrid have the vital away goal against the French side following the 1-1 draw in Lyon, but their record against OL has not been the best as they have not beaten them in seven Champions League meetings.
Madrid have a final on Wednesday, their first final of the year, Cruyff wrote in his El Periodico de Cataluna column.
The emergencies are enormous, but Madrid are the favourites."


The Spain side is favored to pull through though but we will see soon when these team face off it should be a great game to watch. Adebayor the main striker should be able to pull through and score some very important goals to give his team a win. But Lyon has some red hot players so the Madrid team will have to play some great defense and have to play safe and keep there forwards back and go up a little bit less but they can not stay back the whole game or it could be the reason that they loose to the red hot Lyon team.

Real Madrid moving on to The Copa del Rey!




Hello and welcome back to the second post of my blog I hope you’re as excited for this post as I am! There is some real excited news going on for the Real Madrid team. “Spanish superpowers Barcelona and Real Madrid set up a mouth-watering Copa del Rey final against each other after both clubs progressed through their respected semi-finals”. This information was taken from the ESPN soccer net. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/875073/copa-del-rey:-barcelona,-real-meet-in-final?campaign=rss&source=soccernet&cc=5901. Barcelona advanced through there semi-final game against Almeria totally destroying them with a eight to nothing victory. Well Madrid had a much tougher task for their semi-finals going up against Sevilla. One of Real Madrid’s great rivals it was a close game until the last eight minutes of this high stakes match until Mesut Ozil scored a beautiful shot right to the bottom corner just barely getting it past the keeper. Then Real Madrid decided to bring in their newly signed player from Manchester City Emmanuel Adebayor who came up big in his home debut with Real Madrid scoring one beautiful goal to give Real Madrid and Lassana Diarra scoring a fantastic volley  giving Real Madrid a great 3 to nothing victory trump over Sevilla to make it to the finals to play their biggest rivals FC Barcelona. The two results mean that FC Barcelona and Real Madrid will meet each other in a Copa del Rey final for the first time since 1990, when the Catalan side won two too nothing in Valencia.  Real Madrid and FC Barcelona match up pretty well in this final. One advantage the Madrid squad will have is there superstar goalkeeper Iker Casillas who is red hot this year barely letting any goals get past him. Even though Madrid has that advantages Barcelona has the advantage of their red hot forward David Villa who has been a goal scoring machine this year.
