Dead right

PL Champions
League Cup holders

All thanks to Jose

Spain scored two superb goals....England were mighty unimpressive.....trust Sterling to lose the ball at a crucial time......and Hart's kicks are just suicide.....don't the defenders..backs know how to pass a ball around without losing possession ?.....back to football school that lot ....Spain got better as the game progressed due to poor England passing and no leader in the side.....it's pretty poor when they can't even cross the ball on a dangerous freekick....beggars belief really....

It's official.. Cardiff are English http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34811963 welcome to the mother country Dil -):

Congratulations to Ireland, Northern Ireland ,Wales, and England........remarkable...!...sorry for Scotland but it is a fantastic result in all for Britain and the Irish Republic.....

2-0, Decent performance from our lot (containing a number of reserves) I thought against a tepid French team (understandable in consideration of events).

Yes much better.....you would not have thougt it was the same English team....big improvement....the French were not as good as usual you have to say...

"OK John, you have three choices. You can go to Manchester and play for a philosopher and a bunch of Yanks, or you can go to London and play for a Russian and a Portugese megalomaniac, or you can go to Barcelona and play with Messi, Suarez, Neymar,Iniesta, Mascherano and Pique. Well lad what's it going to be?"

Clasico
Real Madrid 0
Barcelona 4

FC Barcelona’s 4-0 win at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday gained praise from the international press who hailed the efforts of the players and manager Luis Enrique.

The return of Leo Messi from injury, the goals from Neymar Jr. and Luis Suárez and the great performance from Andrés Iniesta in his first Clásico as club captain were the highlights from the derby. Here is what the newspapers from around the world had to say about the famous victory:

EUROPE

Gazzetta dello Sport > 'Galactic Barça’ takes up the front page of the Italian publication.

Corriere dello Sport > ‘Real Madrid humiliated by Barça' and ‘Benitez’s future in danger’, highlighting the Catalans’ superiority in the Clásico with a photo of Suárez celebrating one of his two goals.

L'Equipe >‘Royal Barcelona’ along with an image of the team celebrating a goal. The French publication also features the photo of both teams standing side by side for the minute’s silence ahead of the game in honour of those who perished in the recent Paris attacks.

Telegraph > The British newspaper spoke of a demolition by the Catalans which has made life very difficult for the Madrid manager

Guardian > 'Rampage' was used to describe Barça's display with an image of Suárez wheeling away in celebration after his second goal.
