Barcelona were the better team in El Clasico, says Suarez
Atletico have bounced back from their Madrid derby humbling at the hands of Real two weeks ago with three wins and 11 goals without conceding since.
But Ramos punished them in the final moments to silence the Nou Camp and extend Real’s unbeaten run to 33 games in all competitions.
A last-gasp Sergio Ramos header secured a 1-1 draw for Real Madrid in the Clasico against Barcelona to maintain their six-point lead at the top of LaLiga.
Real Madrid are not fooled by Barcelona’s stuttering form and expect a gruelling El Clasico tonight. He never gives in.
“Now we have to rest because we have a match on Wednesday”, Zidane said. It was a good cross from Luka, for a change, and. We continued looking for the second to avoid being leveled, but we were unable to do so. “We have to just go from game to game”. He also scored an equalizer – after 90 minutes were up – against Sevilla in this season’s UEFA Super Cup, with Madrid again emerging the victor. It’s a point that we add, but it keeps going. However, Barca got the goal they badly needed to kickstart their title defence when Neymar’s free-kick from the left found Suarez somehow unmarked to head home from point blank range. Barcelona has a little more incentive and fewer injuries with which to contend. Messi and company are the pick here. There were two clear chances for Leo and Neymar, but we can’t really talk about justice in football. “Now we have to be strong and keep on”. Andre Gomes started for Iniesta.
Madrid’s defense controlled a no-frills first half.
The journalist didn’t doubt asking the French manager about Sergio Ramos performance:”He is a player with a lot of personality, who always believes until the end”.
Ronaldo lashed an ambitious effort high and wide before Suarez broke the deadlock in the 53rd minute when he headed Neymar’s free-kick past Navas.
Iniesta went on for Ivan Rakitic in the 60th for his first action since injuring a ligament in his right knee at Valencia on October 22.
However, the Luis Enrique coached side will have a long road to trek against familiar foes who are still nursing the bashing they received at the last El Clasico. We can improve in all aspects of the game: offensive, defensive … “We need to be more effective, we need to have more possession and press better”. Both teams to score is also a decent bet.
In contrast, Barca are struggling, by their standards, after 13 games into the La Liga season.
