Copa Del Rey

HINKEL FUE SUSTITUIDO POR UNA ELONGACIÓN


Mala suerte para Hinkel. El lateral alemán está en un gran momento y goza cada vez más de la confianza de Juande. Salió de titular y lo estaba haciendo muy bien, pero sufrió una elongación de musculatura intercostal izquierda, hizo que fuera sustituido en el descanso.

Is there so little interest in Spanish football on this board? Are there so few people with any knowledge of what has happened? A Man U - Reading match gets 23 pages of posts by all and sunder and the Seville scandal gets 5 posts commenting on it.

It is an absolute disgrace obviously and both clubs are at fault, even if 80% of the fault is probably Betis'. Did you see the buste of Lopera in the directors' box? That was one of the main sticky issues in the last Betis - Sevilla match two weeks ago, when Del Nido didn't want to have his picture taken next to the buste of the ex-Betis-president and largest shareholder.

Betis to be excluded from next year's Copa and 3 games behind closed doors, that's my prediction.

Also, the Figo incident was not punished in the end because of two main reasons:
- it was indeed a promise of Villar to overturn the sentence in return for the election favour of Laporta.
- Laporta cleared out the scum (Boixes Nois) from the stands in the Camp Nou, a daring and applaudable act that yet has to be seen to be done in other stadiums. The Camp Nou has now one of the most family friendly atmospheres anywhere in Spain.

As far as the Barça game is concerned:
very well played by Barça, a daring approach, finally some quick passing movement, the best I've seen this year in the first half. In the second half we really didn't control the game at all, and we should have switched back to 4-3-3 at the start of the second half.
d'Alessandro rightly sent off. Messi rightly booked for making a meal of it. Most yellow cards were correct, there were a lot of nasty fouls. Zaragoza-Barcelona has become quite a rivalry and I think Zaragoza was getting somewhat irritated because they may have secretly expected to have the better of Barça (again) this time.

well that was in 2005 right. still dont get why something like this could last for so long when you consider how much attention it got from the media.

You are not Spanish are you?

Believe me, these things can go on forever if there are powerful interests behind it.

well i know the italian system and they tend to be slow too but this just seems to weird to my. but i doubt as you imply that this would have happened had it been someone else then barca or madrid.
