Real Madrid vs Barcelona - El Clasico - Match Preview

17:36

The most awaited fixture of the Spanish League is here - El Clasico with Real Madrid and FC Barcelona going head to head at the Nou Camp on 3rd December 2016.

 Barcelona will be without their midfield maestro - Andres Iniesta who is sidelined by injury for pretty much weeks. Pique's injury is also not perfectly healed and he also said that he could feel it against Real Sociedad. Sergio Busquets is playing awfully till now in the La Liga and could be the weak link for Barcelona.

 Real Madrid are on a terrific run and are 6 points clear on the top. But, Bale is sidelined for at least two months of ankle injury and it can be the difference because he was playing very well. Cristiano Ronaldo is always a vulnerable and can get his name on the score sheet. 

 But as always this match is going to be very interesting like all the other Clasicos. So stay tuned and read my blog :P. 

 More coming soon. Stay tuned.

Barcelona vs Real Sociedad - Match Report

20:29

Barcelona lucky to escape against Sociedad.

 Barca's terrible record at Anoeta continued as they drew against Sociedad in Spanish League match. The Catalan club has not won here since 2007 and this draw leaving them 6 points behind Real Madrid ahead of the Clasico.

 William Jose gave Sociedad the lead after a header which Pique fumbled to clear off after ter Stegen's good save. 

 Neymar made a good run with the ball before passing it to Messi who finished it perfectly to equalise for Barcelona.

 Sociedad had the chance to seal the victory over the Catalans when a perfectly timed run was ruled offside. But the replay showed that he was 3-4 yards before the offside line.

 All I can say is that it was a frustrating draw for Barcelona and in the next game they face Real Madrid with 6 points gap between them.

Manchester United vs Feyenoord - Match Report

Wayne Rooney makes history as United beat Feyenoord.

 Wayne Rooney became United's all time leading scorer in Europe as Jose Mourinho;s side beat Feyenoord 4-0.

 Opportunities did fall for Paul Pogba and Carrick but Jones kept the ball away many a times.

 Kuyt almost silenced Old Trafford with an effort Romero diverted past his post. The Argentinian also saved from Rick Karsdorp.

 The 31-year-old instigated the move by breaking down the left and feeding Zlatan Ibrahimovic inside and Rooney's marker losing his footing allowing him to chip the ball over Jones.

 Pogba's second half chip which was tipped away by Jones. Mata's chipped effort from range was also brilliantly tipped away by Jones.

 Of United's attacking outlets it was Mkhitaryan, with his purposeful runs and excellent close control, who was impressing the most and the Armenian fired into the side netting.

 The first, in the 69th, came after Carrick won the ball back, Ibrahimovic flicked through to Rooney in the box and he displayed the vision to find Mata inside to leave him with a routine finish.

 Lingard rounded off the score after a stoppage time goal from the edge of the box.
