HT 1-0. Really impressive. They understand Barca will control possession, so they have been clever. Strong backline that has been well organised, and a lethal counter attack! VAMOS
Oh no Tono....... poor goalkeeping there. Push it around the post lad..... :dismay: Messi with number 300 for Barcelona.
Pity for the draw. But they're holding well. Good organized defence and quick attempts of counterstrike.
He's a great player, but honestly not fit for Barcelona's way of playing. (just like it was for one named Ibrahimovic) What's the use for a player quick and brilliant in counterstrikes, in a tiki-taka ultra-possession team? If he's sold e.g. to a Premier team, I think he'll shine again.
Don't tell me! Beyond Udinese, I'm half-fan of Inter and still remember Busquet's atrocious "recital" feigning to be hit on face in Champions, to obtain an unexisting red card to the opponent.
Messi #301. :sign15: Some of the playacting is appalling. Ighalo, Alba etc etc. Alexis and Pedro have been poor all season, Villa is out of favour. Alexis back to Udinese ?
Gerry always has a nice word for us as a former club whenever he's on media duty. Top man. Torje off Brahimi on for our brethren. Sadly looks like the chips are up for Granada in this one. Buonnanotte looks like a little boy who has wandered onto the pitch by mistake....
More embarrassing anatomy lessons from Biscuits and Alves..... Inigo Lopez wastes an excellent chance from Nyom's cross and likewise Tello for Barca.
The other guy started talking about the Pozzo's, the mentioned that Watford had 11 loans from Udinese blah blah blah. Gerry piped up and said how well we were doing, top scorers in the league, 3rd, playing great football, won 4-0 away, 4 away wins in a row and if Granada had turned down Vydra in the Summer they'd be gutted.
Nothing to be ashamed of. If Granada play like this the rest of the season they will win more than they lose and comfortably stay up. Bad luck Roji.
Full time. 2-1. Nothing to be ashamed of - there aren't many teams who would see a 2-1 loss to Barca as a bad result.
Full time. Loss but with honour against a giant. They held their ground well and tried well to reach draw. If Granada keeps playing like in last 3 matches, hopefully it shouldn't have problems in reaching safety from relegation.
Indeed. Nolito and Buonnanotte are important acquisitions. Nolito worked very hard in pressing and the little one although slight has excellent creative skills and passing range. I would like to buy a copy of human anatomy as written by Dr.Sergio Busquets with several co-authors inc. Dr.Nyom.
It sounds like you gave a great account of yourselves. Well done Granada! Keep it up and you will be in La Liga next season!
Each time that video comes round, I keep expecting the keeper to save it this time. If he was a fraction of a second earlier with his dive and got about 1.5cm more glove on it then it's round the post.
We almost did against Barcelona but now we must think on Celta. Next 2 matches are really important, against 2 relegation teams... We can almost certified our permanency Sunday 16:00 (UK Hour) Celta de Vigo - Granada CF. Siqueira will play (yellow card was retired)
Damn - Granada gone 1-0 down away at Celta Vigo after 24 mins. Very open game so far. Plenty of time to pull this round. Vamos Granada!
