Real Madrid touch down in Manchester after defeating Barcelona again
Real Madrid won 2-1 over Barcelona
in Saturday’s Spanish League match, but Madrid still trails leader Barcelona by
13 points.
An 82nd-minute goal from Sergio
Ramos handed Real Madrid their 2nd consecutive
victory over Barcelona in five days, first in the Copa del Rey and then in the
league on Saturday. Saturday’s win gave Madrid its first home league victory
over Barcelona since 2008, the game grew testy toward the end as Barca’s
goalkeeper Victor Valdes was eventually sent off for protesting.
Madrid’s recent victory will
do very little to prevent their fierce rival (Barcelona FC) from reclaiming the
Spanish league title but it should boost the team ahead of their critical
Champions League clash with Manchester United.
Former Manchester United star,
Cristiano Ronaldo and the rest of the Blancos of Real Madrid landed in
Manchester on Sunday night ahead of their very crucial Champions League
second-leg tie with United.
This will be the first time Ronaldo
will play at Old Trafford since his £80 million record-breaking move to Madrid
in 2009.
