Ronaldo’s Brace Dumps Barca Out of Copa del Rey; Win 3-1 (agg.4-2) at Camp Nou

Madrid Beat Barcelona 3-1

EFT Report, Barcelona: Cristiano Ronaldo reminded the whole world that there is another ‘best footballer on this planet’ with a scintillating performance by scoring a brace, he is now the first player ever to score in 6 consecutive away El Clasicos, to inspire Los Blancos to thrashed Messi’s FC Barcelona 3-1 (4-2 in aggregate) at their own backyard Camp Nou in the second leg of the Copa del Rey (the King’s Cup) semis on Feb 27.

Going into this match with an aggregate of 1-1, it was ‘Special One’ Mourinho’s night from the word ‘GO’ much to the dismay of the Camp Nou fans, Jose’s tactics, player marking was right on the spot while Barcelona started with 10 players that played against AC Milan and put up a very very poor and lackluster performance. Ronaldo scored the opener from the spot in the 12 minute after being brought down by Shakira’s better half Gerard Pique and doubled the score for Madrid in the 57th minute with a very easy rebound. Los Blancos buried the match in the 68th minute when young and upcoming French defender Raphael Varane rose the highest to head home from a corner and go 3-0 up. Jordi Alba pulled one back for FC Barcelona but they were out-played, out-maneuver, out-thought and in simple word ‘the second best’ on the night.

Real Madrid now meet either Sevilla or neighbor Atletico Madrid in the final on May 18.
