Match Report: Barcelona 0-0 Espanyol

Last night's match was nothing more than ninety minutes of watching two teams play out one of the most boring draws in history. We're a bit upset by the general performance of our gents for this one; everyone seemed to be out of form, with no exceptions. There was barely any attack, barely any goal attempts, all in all, one of our poorest performances of the season. But fret not; there's still the second leg, with the home advantage, which we can surely win.

However, what really gets us is that Rafael Marquez started this match and then had to come off after just ten minutes because of injury! Medical reports say that its not anything new, just overburdening of scars from old injuries, but nevertheless he'll be out for one to two weeks. This is the third? fourth? time this happens to him and its very distressing; we've been missing beautiful Rafa so much this season.
