Santi is still a baller...what a player!
Messi is not normal. What a freekick.
Bottled it.
Gutted
This was filthy though:
Might as well throw the ball into the net when you concede a free kick that close to goal with him on the pitch
or let him run into the box and then foul him
He make direct freekicks look ridiculously easy.
Santi is still amazing, how can someone who suffered those injuries still come back and dominate Barca? Such levels.
Throw our kitchen sink at Samuel Chukwueze by the way.
Barcelona 2-0 Atletico Madrid Barcelona scorers: Luis Suárez (85'), Lionel Messi (86')
Calculating Suárez removed his shirt after scoring as he wanted to get suspended for the game before El Classico. Last year he ran around blatantly fouling opponents in the last few minutes but the referee knew what he was up to and didn't give him a card.
Probably the ref being incompetent. If Suarez or anyone for that matter wanted a yellow all they would need to do is pretend to track back and pull someone's shirt. Simple and no risk of a red.
Barca need to wrap Messi in cotton wool for the rest of the La Liga season. Cameo's off the bench and keep him fresh for the CL.
I just read they held out with 10 men from the 28th minute due to Diego being Costa to the ref. It's reported that he said "Me cago en la puta que te pario" (I shit on the whore who birthed you). Makes Juve spanking them 3-zip all the more impressive. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/what-gerard-pique-said-diego-14248309
That translation 😆 deserved red but it looks way worse in English than it is
The Juventus game has nothing to do with this. Juve were as strong as Atletico were pathetic that day. Yesterday they fought very well and Oblak especially was incredible. There was one shot from Coutinho in particular which resulted in an incredible save, he jumped to his near post before Coutinho even got to the ball.
I just read a few translations of insults from other languages in the comments section. They go deep and are far more creative than any English ones i know.

What is the correct meaning?
Watched the Barca game this morning. Costa ruined it with that moment of madness in the first half. His team was able to hold out so long. But such quality finishes from both Suarez and Messi. Coutinho showed some flashes but that move still leaves me seething. He’s a £50m player. On the refereeing. I would’ve lost it in the moment, but with the benefit of news reports, I understand Costa had to go. And I feel for the referee on Suarez’s yellow. The law requires he book him yellow, but the ref must’ve felt used.

There's no literal equivalent in English (there are some in Arabic but that doesn't help does it). Its not really meant as an insult to anyones mother and means basically 'for fucks sake', if you translate it word by word it obviously sounds a lot worse. Costa shouting it into the refs face made it worse since unlike 'ffs' you can also address someone directly with it.
Tone's translation is the literal meaning in English. It is perfectly translatable.
I think you misread my post.
"Son of a bitch" could be translated to "Your mother is a female dog" which is nonsense.
