Following their remarkable comeback against Barcelona, Real Madrid faithful are in good spirits and are optimistic about silverware success in 2012.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Karim-Benzema-c20350 were Real Madrid’s heroes on the night as Real stumbled in their pursuit of Copa del Rey success.
Their performance at the Camp Nou reinvigorated Los Blancos’ self-esteem after dismal defeats against Barcelona in the past. After many one-sided El Clasico affairs in the last couple of season, Madrid’s display in Catalonia almost returned
the balance to their fixtures.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Esteban-Granero-c12919 gave a decent account of his abilities in the match and reflected his desire to feature in another meeting between the two Spanish giants.
He explained that Real have managed to cover up the distance between the two sides and will give their Catalan counterparts a run for their money.
The 24-year-old praised Madrid’s performance in the Camp Nou and opined that the balance of play was tilted in their favour for most of the match. He added that with the Copa del Rey out of picture, he is looking forward to meeting Barcelona
in the UEFA Champions League.
"We played in a field which all competitors in the world say are very difficult and we were better. We should have won. I'd like to meet them in the Champions League. "
With both the parties criticizing each other in the aftermath, Granero stated his differing views to those shared by his illustrious compatriot. He remarked that Real play their natural game and do not try to enforce their views on the
rest.
"We're a humble team, trying to do their best and do not pretend to lecture anyone.
“Everyone says they are the best team in the world, of which everyone speaks well and they do everything well, but Madrid have been much higher. We will positively look at La Liga and the Champions," he said in Cope.
Real Madrid are top in La Liga with a lead of five points over second-placed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604. They resume their domestic fixtures against rock-bottom Real Zaragoza.
