In the latest edition of the " El Classico," Real Madrid once again finds it impossible to defeat Barcelona in their Copa Del Rey second leg tie, at the Camp Nou. It was another frustrating evening for the "Los Blancos," and Jose Mourinho as they drew on the night, yet do not progress due to a 4-3 aggregate score from last weeks defeat.
Once again Madrid exploded out of the gates, with Gonzalo Higuain squandering a chance inside the first minute from a Barcelona defensive mix-up. Madrid looked like scoring first, yet couldn't muster a goal. I heard the great Ray Hudson talking on a radio show earlier in the day where he said that it's almost a detriment to score first against Barcelona. It's kind of like aggravating a tiger. The beast already want's your throat, pulling it's tail only increases this hunger.
The deciding goal was absolutely howitzer-ed home by the Brazilian fullback putting the game out of reach for Madrid. Check the video below, paying close attention to the celebratory dance starring goal scorer Alves and Eric Abidal...It's an absolutely classic jig, for an absolutely classic occasion.
