REAL MADRID VS MALLORCA PICSPAM

[jenni_blog]

The biggest thrill for me was to see Fernando Gago playing again.

Here he was the last time I saw him play. It was May 23, 2009:



He looks a lot different now...



It was snowing and cold at the Bernabeu...

It was surreal watching Real Madrid play in the snow, wasn't it? It felt special for me, like Christmas again. With a big, Gago-shaped present. I loved the fact about the pitch being heated so the snow wouldn't stick. And who says we can't have real turf and a heated pitch in Toronto? We'd attract much better players for sure.

I thought Gago did wonderfully well considering he's been out of the lineup for quite awhile. What impressed me most was how well he and Xabi Alonso hooked up and between them did not let Mallorca get the ball forward at all. They did an amazing job.

Thank you so much for the compliment. I know the photos are not mine, and everyone has to deal with a great many posts on the same thing. But I usually try to 'express myself' through the photos that I choose to post. It doesn't always come off, but sometimes it's nice to see the result. Your comment is much appreciated. XD

"And who says we can't have real turf and a heated pitch in Toronto? We'd attract much better players for sure."

With all the rumours floating around about Raul, Casillas and Del Piero wanting to go to MLS prior to retiring I'm all for Toronto's real turf and heated pitch :D

Yes, a heated pitch would be lovely in Toronto. I've been on a waiting list for season tickets for two years. I'm hoping that by the time we get a few 'stars' here I'll have them!
