La Liga, Round 3: Who's ready for Derby Time?

This weekend in La Liga was packed with plenty of derbies and oodles of morbo, or intense rivalry. The games contained all the ingredients for a proper derby as they were heated, tight, controversial, and very physical.

In the Battle Real, a team that defended and attacked as a team (Real Sociedad) were very unfortunate not to get a draw, against an individualistic, slow starting team (Real Madrid). Moments of individual brilliance (Di Maria's goal) a lucky deflection (Ronaldo's free kick), and three missed clear-cut, early opportunities by a young startlet (La Real's Griezmann) was the story of the game. That's two dropped points by the team from San Sebastian. Mourinho's brood are still a work in progress. FT 1-2 (RS: Tamudo, RM: DiMaria, Ronaldo)
