FC Barcelona holds off Madrid Comeback to Proceed to semi Final; FC Barcelona -2, Real Madrid -2

FC Barcelona secured a semi-final birth in this season's Copa Del Rey after knocking out holders Real Madrid with a sensational 2-2 draw. Barcelona who went into the break with a 2-0 lead had to hold off a sensational fightback from Mourinho's boys to secure the semi-final birth. To an extent we had to say that we were lucky after putting up the worst defensive display of the season, and courtesy of the fact that Madrid missed a number of chances.

Real dissension in the ranks?

The Real Madrid fans are in a barracking mood, just like the fans giving stick to Arsene Wenger. The Barca game blew up in their face because Mou decided to stick 11 men behind the ball and with the exception of an 11th minute of enterprise, played like he was afraid to lose which is exactly what happened.

Real Madrid Wins To Set Up Barcelona Meeting

Real Madrid set up a potential Copa Del Rey quarter-final against FC Barcelona after a 1-0 victory against Málaga earned the Whites a 4-2 aggregate win.

It was a tense night as Malaga only needed a 1-0 victory in order to advance on the away goals rule. In a very tactical first half the best chance fell to Sergio Ramos, whose header right before half-time just missed the target.

A Year on the Liverpool Offside: The January Window Closes

In recent years, the January window's been relatively tame 2007 was maybe the most active, with Javier Mascherano and Alvaro Arbeloa among the names on the way in, and 2008 saw Martin Skrtel arrive with Momo Sissoko heading out. But 2009 brought only the exit for the recently arrived but underwhelming Robbie Keane, and 2010 had only Maxi Rodriguez arriving on a free with Andrea Dossena and Andriy Voronin leaving Anfield.

Last Friday we were too busy fawning all over the fiercely fashionable Alonsos to realise that this hot to trot Spanish couple was also in GQ Man of the Year attendance. Less than a week later they've given us another shot at showing them off, which we're very appreciative of.

Certainly Real Madrid's Arbeloa and his equally beautiful wife, Carlota, looked stellar as usual at the Chocron New Catalague event this past Wednesday.

In the wake of an encouraging win it would be easy to simply focus on the positives like normal, happy people who know how to enjoy success. But what those happy people who know how to enjoy success don't know is that failure and pain is lurking just around every corner, waiting to spring. So really, you're much better off embracing a more negative outlook that asks, "Why hasn't Jose Enrique been called up for Spain yet, and does it mean there's something wrong with him we don't know?

If the results from two weeks ago are any indication, Wednesday's UEFA Champions League matches will be must-see TV.

Whether it was Manchester United squeaking past little-known Otelul Galati, Manchester City dramatically taking three points off Villarreal with Sergio Aguero's stoppage-time goal, Real Madrid putting on an attacking clinic against Lyon or Bayern Munich and Napoli taking each others' best shots and settling for a draw, the last round of UCL games provided plenty of entertainment.

Barcelona might be sitting pretty at the top of the La Liga standings but the real story of the weekend was another sterling performance by Los Merengues. Real squeezed 4 unanswered goals past Espanyol to take them to within 1 point of table toppers Barcelona and Levante.

It is still too early to tell but all signs point to a 2 horse for the league's top honor of the top scorer award.

For some it was the sort of day where one points to the end result—a victory at Goodison—as being enough, as being the only thing that really matters after a far from convincing performance. There was Luis Suarez, who scored a goal in the end though his touch often seemed heavy and his play a step off the pace.

No, Real Madrid is NOT in Crisis. We are merely in a slump. 5 dropped points over 2 games against La Liga teams whose objective is to stave off relegation is proof of that. Maybe Jose Mourinho's sarcastic remarks prior to the Levante game about just wanting to stay up were taken seriously by the team: prompting them to play as if we were a team battling relegation.

Second-half substitute Cesc Fabregas scored twice as reigning European and FIFA World Cupâ„¢ champions Spain fought back from a two-goal deficit to beat Chile 3-2 in an international friendly.

Vicente Del Bosque's side were punished for a slow start as Chile raced into a 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Mauricio Isla and Eduardo Vargas, but the introduction of Andres Iniesta at half-time reinvigorated the Spanish midfield.

Not that I was expecting much of a lazy international friendly just before the start of the season, with a call-up list plagued with absences and injured (Sergio Ramos and Xavi had to abandon the team before they left Spain and Nacho Monreal, called up instead of Ramos, got injured during the last training session), but I did expect better than this.

Por fortuna para nosotros, hace años que en España se vienen haciendo bastante bien las cosas con las selecciones inferiores, y por eso no debe ser casualidad que el año pasado en el podio del Soccer City de Johannesburgo se juntaran unos cuantos medallistas olímpicos, muchos campeones de Europa en distintas categorías y un subcampeón y 3 campeones del mundo sub'20.

Alvaro Arbeloa feels Kenny Dalglish has succeeded where predecessor Roy Hodgson failed at Anfield because his style is more suited to the team.
The six months the ex-Fulham boss had in charge saw the side struggle for results and performances with many criticizing the Englishman's tactics.
Dalglish replaced him in early January and the turnaround on the field was marked, with the team enjoying the kind of form which would have put them on a par with Chelsea and Manchester City had it been reproduced over a full season.

Hay más cosas, claro. El desembarco en la Liga de los propietarios extranjeros, con distinta fortuna (en todos los sentidos de la palabra); la eclosión del árbitro español que quiso ser inglés y va camino de lograrlo (Mateu Lahoz deja jugar y se equivoca en las decisiones importantes igualito que Howard Webb); el esperpento del Hércules, que subió pagando a otros (dicen) y luego se olvidó de pagar a los suyos; o la despedida de un crack injustamente olvidado a la hora de nombrar a las grandes estrellas de la Liga (Frederic Kanouté, duende andaluz en un cuerpo de gigante africano); pero si tengo que destacar 5 puntos de esta temporada que se nos escapa entre los dedos, me quedo con estas:
5 – Los 5 partidos de la última jornada en los que se decidió el tercer equipo que retrocedía a la Liga Adelante (cruel paradoja publicitaria).
