Barca and Real at war

Last days have been very interesting for the new “pearl” of Brazil, Neymar, after he set the fuse and started a new war between Spain’s biggest teams, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

It was rumored a few days ago that Real Madrid would have an understanding with Carioca’s striker, a deal after which Santos will receive 45 million euros plus a loan of Neymar in 2012 season.

Catalans have remained impassive in Real offers and decided it is time to act: they made the same offer plus 5 million.

The interesting thing is that the supply of 50 million euros will be honored as soon as accepted by the leadership of Santos, Barcelona wanting only that the public to know that any offer of Real for Neymar could always be beaten.

Club which owns Neymar at the moment won’t stay relaxed about the situation, and after coming back from Copa America, the leaders will offer a new contract, thus trying to force up the price of striker and force the two clubs from Spain to open their pockets even more.

Is he that a good of a player or Barcelona wants to strike in Jose Murinho’s ego?

Cristiano Ronaldo

Let’s talk about a player, one of the wonder players in the world.

Cristiano Ronaldo‘s treble against Getafe was his fourth hat-trick of the season and his fifth since joining Real Madrid. The forward, who also has seven braces to his name this year, has 13 multi-goal performances in the 26 matches he has scored in. What’s more, he is the first player in the history of La Liga to score three or more goals six times in one season. Romario and Langara shared the record of five.

Ronaldo has played in 52 matches this year (32 in La Liga, 12 in UCL and 8 in Copa) and scored in 26 of them, for an average of one goal every two matches. But CR7 doesn’t settle once he has found the back of the net. Quite the opposite in fact. Thirteen of the 26 matches he has scored in have been multi-goal performances.

Real Madrid’s forward is sitting on 49 goals this season and 82 since arriving in the Spanish capital in the summer of 2009. Twenty-two times over the last two seasons, Cristiano Ronaldo has scored more than one goal in a match (15 braces, 5 hat-tricks and two four-plus goal performances). He has scored in an astounding 49 of the 87 matches (56.3%) played for Real Madrid.

With 235 total goals as a professional footballer, Ronaldo is on the verge of earning his second Golden Boot, his first Pichichi trophy (top scorer in La Liga) and equalling or breaking the 38-goal record for goals in a season set by Zarra and Hugo Sanchez..
