You know that horrible moment when you've just woken up mid-flight, and realized that the plane is about to land in 5 seconds? That's exactly what happened to the Spanish National Team when they arrived in St. Gallen, Switzerland yesterday- just look at all their Pillowfaces!

Found this pic that I thought may interest all the global Football readers & especially REAL MADRID followers. It´s one of the very latest team photos of the SPANISH LEAGUE Champions for season 2011-2012. Team photo: Real Madrid CF season 2011-2012 Top L to R: Pepe, Ramos, Xabi Alonso, Khedira, Benzema & Cristiano Ronaldo.

A Full Bernabeu beholds a Ronaldo Goal - What a Magnificent Sight!
3 Points down, 3 Points to go: for our 32nd La Liga Title. After Ronaldo's fabulous opener and Benzema's brace last night, we needed a Barca loss to Rayo to get our hands on the Trophy. Last night however, Barca made Rayo ‘pay for the broken plates': thus, we are now left with the arduous task of winning the title at one of Spain's Football Temples, Athletic Bilbao's San Mames – current home of Pep Guardiola's mentor (Marcelo Bielsa) this Wednesday.

Holy Fuck! - was probably what El Pipita was saying to himself when Cristiano's shot was saved. Pepe's shock and the pain in Xabi Alonso's grimace is there for all to see. . There are a few lessons in life that I as a father will have the pleasure of teaching my son. There will be the basics: "Be honest, Be humble, etc.

‘Your Pessimism Disgusts Me' – was my reply to a post in the comments section in one of the previous articles at RMFB as the comment essentially said that last night's game at the Camp Nou was a guaranteed loss (or something to that effect). It turned out, that the non-believers of Real Madrid's ability to beat Barca were not only among the Cules (something that was logical), but scandalously, they were from the Madridista camp as well.

Real Madrid well and truly have sealed the La Liga title of 2011-12 season with a 2-1 victory at the Camp Nou. Khedira and Ronaldo scored for the away side taking them 7 points clear of the defending Champions. It was the first victory of Real Madrid under Mourinho against FC Barcelona in the league, incidently it was the first victory for Mourinho at the Camp Nou.

Real Madrid became the unwilling victims of an incident on Tuesday, when mysterious thieves crept into the Bayern Munich visitors' dressing room and stole three boots belonging to Mesut Ozil, Karim Benzema and Ronaldo. Of course, it's not so funny when you're actually in the situation and kick-off is only moments away.

Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho will be looking to inch closer toward a European record of becoming the first coach to win three Champions League titles with different clubs when he faces German side Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena tomorrow in the first of their two legged semi final tie.

Pepe's tendency to step on fingers, kick backs and even mistake his own teammates for the people he actually wants to attack can be difficult to understand for most people, but Real Madrid and Brazil legend Roberto Carlos totally gets it.

From AS:

Do you understand the behavior of Pepe?

I woke up this morning wanting the ‘D' Word to stand for ‘Defense' – as it was in my opinion, the main talking point to last night's match vs. Valencia. Having read some of the comments from the liveblog at RMFB (and what some Madrid fans are saying), perhaps another ‘D' Word should be added into the mix: disappointment – Madridisimo's collective disappointment for the result (an obvious one) and my personal disappointment for their nitpicky reaction to the game.

REAL MADRID CF cruised into the semi finals of CHAMPIONS LEAGUE after defeating tonight 5 - 2 APOEL (8-2 agg). The Spanish Football Club will meet German team Bayern Munich in a top level semis clash not to be missed. Kaka scores for Real Madrid Real Madrid gave Benzema, Xabi Alonso, Ozil a rest & started with Varane, Altintop, Sahin & Granero.

Mr. Champions League does it again: Karim Benzema broke APOEL's dam last night What is that smell?.. or rather, that scent? That my friends is the smell of the Champions League Semi-Final. . Short of a catastrophe that would be far greater than Alcorconzo, Mourinho and his men would likely be arranging early travel plans to Munich – not for the Final, but to likely to meet Bayern in the Semi-Finals (unless Marseille would have something to say about it).

Real Madrid's 3-Headed Attacking Monster: When Ronaldo, Benzema and Pipita work TOGETHER, they're unstoppable Well, we all missed that didn't we? A 5-1 scoreline at the Bernabeu off an utterly dominant performance from our boys in white – the sort of performance that reminded us of Real Madrid circa late-2011: dominant in possession, fast and direct in attack and elegant in defense (yes, that's how I'd like to describe Varane's defensive style).

Real Madrid earned an easy victory at APOEL and Chelsea got a crucial away goal in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday, March 28, 2012. Below is a recap of all the matches.

Results

APOEL 0-3 Real Madrid

Benfica 0-1 Chelsea

Chelsea Scores Away Goal

Salomon Kalou scored a 75th minute goal to get Chelsea a very important lead heading into the second leg.

Happy day for Real Madrid fans as Real Madrid thrashed APEOL 0-3 and that too away from home which means that, at the home leg Real Madrid can relax and really play aggressively without worrying about the result of the match. Benzema scored two goals and one goal was scored by Kaka. Kaka provided the [.

When AVB took over in the summer and revealed that he has been asked to take the club forward for the next three years it was clear that a complete revamp of our squad was needed. With that, it was to be expected that the press would have a field day linking the club with plenty of names and future signings along with continued stories of players leaving the club.

Cristiano Ronaldo became the first player since Madrid icon Ferenc Puskas to score the fastest century of goals in the Primera Division. The Portuguese's brace inspired Madrid to a 5-1 win over Real Soceidad at the Bernabeu and helped keep them 6 points ahead of arch rivals Barcelona. This brings both Ronaldo and Messi level on 35 league goals with only a handful of matches remaining in the season.

Real Madrid are back on track on in La Liga. Barcelona won their away game 0-2 and quite extraordinarily, Lionel Messi of Barcelona did not score. Don't have a clue how that happened. Anyway, Real Madrid won their match at home against Real Sociedad quite comfortably 5-1 without Ronado scoring twice along with Benzema who [.

Kaka played like a 'Galactico' last Sunday I am not shocked that Real Madrid won against Espanyol last Sunday. I'm shocked however that Madridmanaged to win so comfortably. This is after all the same Espanyol whose coach has been mooted by some as a possible replacement to Mourinho one day (a thought that was surely in the minds of some with the ‘convenient' timing of AVB's sacking at Chelseayesterday plus Mourinho's house-hunting trip to Londonlast week).

Even before the ink had dried on the transfer of Sergio Aguero to Manchester City from Atletico Madrid, there were rumors circulating that City and Real Madrid had already struck a deal to send Aguero back to Madrid at the end of this season.

The rumors were so strong that Atletico, who refused to sell Aguero to their city rivals, tried to insert a clause in the deal that City could not sell the Argentinian striker to Real Madrid, but Man City politely declined Atletico's request.

Last night, Real Madrid were given the most glorious opportunity to go to bed with a 13-point lead over Barcelona. It was an opportunity that was as clear as day: against a bottom team who were on a freefall (Racing Santander), at home and on the back of what has largely been a sweet Valentine's Month for Real Madrid.

COUNT 'EM UP! Messi and Pique counting the number of points we have over Barca. Say 'Cheese' Guys.
Last week it was 7up. This week, we're all out of names of fizzy drinks to describe our lead: it's now TEN points. 10. Beautiful.. Sid Lowe had some great feel-good reading material re: Real Madrid too (read the full article here):

Mano Menezes appears to be under a lot of pressure these days surely it isn't because he's only the national coach of Brazil, a country with 194 million other talking heads? Earlier this week, Menezes met up with the U-17 'selecao feminina' (you can call them Brasil's futbolitas!

Stylish and Educational! 3nil's Onside/Offside Shirt.

Imagine a perfectly timed run from the far side. Ozil slips Benzema in, which is followed by a cool finish to the far post. But there's something wrong; the assistant referee has raised his flag and the goal doesn't stand.

Barcelona [2 : 2] Real Madrid
No. of Yellow Cards : 9
No. Of Red Cards : 1

Somewhere beneath this 'Blaugrana Happiness Pile' lies Pedro, who scored the opening goal in Barca's 2-2 draw with Real Madrid at the Nou Camp last night.
