In this post, instead of talking about soccer in another
country, I will be writing about the games, that the two teams I support,
Liverpool and Real Madrid, played on Sunday. Liverpool played Stoke City, and
Real Madrid played Barcelona, and both the games ended in a draw.
First, I watched the Liverpool game. Stoke City traveled to
Merseyside to play the Liverpool team at Anfield. The game resulted in a 0-0
draw, but I do not think that it was a fair result. I believe Liverpool should
have won the game as they dominated possession and had 12 shots to
Stoke’s 4.

Both the teams started well and created plenty of chances in
the first half. However, no team could take the lead. In the second half,
Liverpool was much brighter than Stoke. They outplayed Stoke and controlled
possession. Martin Skrtel and Raheem Sterling both struck the post. Despite
their domination, Liverpool could not find a way past Begovic, the Bosnian
goalkeeper.
This means that Liverpool are still waiting for their first
home win of the season.

The second game I watched is one of the most highly
anticipated matches in the world. Real Madrid played their rivals, Barcelona,
at Camp Nou.
I think that the 2-2 draw was a fair result as both the
teams played really well. Even though Barcelona played with a make-shift
defensive line, due to injuries to Puyol and Pique, their defenders did not
make too many mistakes. All the goals were scored by two of the world’s best
soccer players – Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
