Past Minera and Into the R16
Los Blancos beat Deportivo Minera yesterday without getting out of second gear and secured qualification to the Round of 16. It was… how should I put this:
“A relaxing evening”
What I was glad to see is the joy in the faces of the fans and players to be playing Real Madrid. That stood out for me. Also, the youngsters performed well, even considering the tier of the opposition.
Speaking of the opposition, I like this team! They were pretty darn clean in their play and seemed to have some drilled moves down.

The Man, the Myth, the Legend. Take a bow: Luka.

Not Sure Why the Man Was on the Pitch
But hey, he performed – again. It’d be nice to see him rest a tiiiny bit more, so that we can keep his energy levels where we need them to be.
