11 vs 15, and still not enough to win (5-3)

11 vs 15, and still NOT ENOUGH to win. Tonight, Granada CF didn't deserve the three goals they got, as they were from a foul and two penalties (which, in turn, costed a red card to Dani Alves) COMPLETELY NON EX-IS-TENT. So? The referee clearly portraited himself.
The match begun in the best way, with Xavi scoring an early can opnener, after a center from Isaac Cuenca (recently, irregular, the boy) which Messi lowered with a header and Xavi volleyed in (min. 4).
Later, Messi would equal César after a a center again from Isaac Cuenca, which Mainz, Granada CF's captain, barely reached to head it off, Messi then reaches it, made a diagonal volley which crashed against the right post and ended up netted in (min. 16).
Aside from many more chances, there wasn't anything more to remark in the first half.
Because all the action was about to come in the second half. Action and CONTROVERSY. Looooots of controversy.
The first controversial action was an non existent fault by Piqué on Dani Benítez. Carlos Martins then kicked it as a high pass, and Diego Mainz (the captain) won the jump over Piqué and headed it in. 2-1 with a non existent fault. Nice one, mr. Teixeira Vitienes, nice one...
Then, AGAIN Fernando Teixeira Vitienes (the referee) would portrait himself again, by whistling a penalty where there was nothing, a penalty commited by Alves after a supposed arm strike on Dani Benítez. The replay shows that mr. Benítez was theatring aorund. So, Granada CF's left back, Guilherme Siqueira, kicked and transformed the penalty.
Granada CF was happy with that controversial 2-2, so they proceded to lock their area with a thousand padlocks, that would be broken just five minutes later (min. 66), after a great through pass by Alves to Messi, who spooned the ball over Júlio César, the andalusian side's goalkeeper. History. Messi becomes Barça's top goalscorer in the whole club's history.
Barça then proceeded to take things more calmly, and it's this way how the fourth goal arrived, in minute 81, after a mess in fornt of the andalusian goal, the ball was left dead in the area, to which Tello (a brute diamond, believe me) saw it and kicked it in in order to net the fourth.
Four minutes later, Messi ensured that he would take another ball home, by netting the fifth, after a tremendous through pass, AGAIN by Alves, then dribbling Júlio César and breaking the ball in beacuse two defenders were disposed to stop him at any cost.
Also four minutes later, another controversial penalty costed Dani Alves his second yellow card, to which he was sent off, after an appeal for a non existent handball inside the area. Again, Siqueira kicked and transformed.
And that's how the match ended.
You see, referees are always moved by interests, and maybe they thought they were doing wrong last season after drinking some of Mourinho's poison, so now the interest is to whistle against Barça. But not even that works already.
Our next opponent is RCD Mallorca, next Saturday, 18:00, PPV (TV3's time is 22:00), at the Iberostar Stadium, or Ono Estadi, if you want.
That's all for now, folks, see ya after the Mallorca-Barça!!
