Results:
Athletico 0-2 W - I knew this was going to be a tough game, Atletico Madrid is the only team to have beaten us in the league so far. Casillas was back in the first eleven once again too. It was a fairly even game, Casillas played very well and saving a penalty. We could have one by three goals if Ronaldo had scored the penalty. After this win we are 12 points ahead of Barca and 11 points ahead of Athletico!
Levante 4-0 W - A nice dominate win with Ronaldo scoring two penalties (seem to be getting penalties everygame!), Ramos and Pepe with the other two goals. Khedira had to go off and is out for six days and Morata will be out for about a week.
Malaga 1-3 W - With Morata being injured I had to play Benzema up front, but after looking at his stats and seeing he hasn't scored a league goal I just couldn't do it. So I played Ronaldo in strike and Jese got a chance out on the left. Pepe, Marcelo and Di Maria got the goals. Ronaldo played well getting two assists.
Ajax 4-2 W (5-4) W This was a must win game, a draw or loss would not have been good enough. Pepe was suspended, this was a massive blow. As well as that, Morata started with 81% fitness. It was just coming up to half time and we 1-0 down however, a MASSIVE QUICK DOUBLE from Ronaldo suddenly got it back to 3-3! 5 minutes of being out Ronaldo completed his hat trick! Morato added our fourth goal just ten minutes later, we had many more chances and survived a scare when they converted a penalty in extra time, but we held out for a minute!
Barcelona 0-1 L - The team was tired from the Ajax game and key player Marcelo was suspended. Dani Alves scored for them in the first half. I decided to go overload for the majority of the second half and it just didn't work out.
Sevilla 1-3 W - The team is starting to look very tired now. We conceded the goal in the first minute in the game. Marcelo got it to 1-1 with a half volley from a corner, Di Maria later scored a brace in the 73rd and 89th minute. Isco was the MOTM with all three assists.
Rayo 3-0 W - A one sided game which saw a rare goal from Nacho, while Alonso and Bale scored the other two.
Champions League Quarter Final Draw: Benfica
Opinion: Well there were certainly harder teams we could of got in the draw, only Marseille could of been easier I suppose.
Review:
Putting the Barca result aside it was a good month. The Barca result was gutting however, good news is they suffered a shock defeat. This leaves a nine point gap between us!
Player of the month: Pepe
Look at those ratings! (Yes he won it two months in a row :P)
I am playing a RM save too and I was very interested to see your results. Any chance you could share your tactics?
On the first or second post I show you my 4-2-3-1 formation and tactics, hope it might help!
