Nice throwing away the match in the 2nd half, Málaga. Inlcuding gift-wrapped goal and all.

SlothB77: what does that headline mean? what is a last 16 first leg?

The King's Cup is a soccer tournament in Spain. Real Madrid are among the 16 teams remaining in the competition. It would appear that, at least in this round, they are paired against Malaga and play one game at each team's home stadium before determining who advances. This was the first of those 2 games, so it's the first of two legs in this round.

It's a cup competition. The last 16 is the round in which all but the final 16 teams have been eliminated.

The round is played by having two teams play two games against each other. Each team has one game home and one away.

Each game of two is referred to as the first leg or second leg.

How is the U.S. ever going to embrace Cricket as a sport when it's terms, rules, and tournament layouts are so damn convoluted?

The thing about Arsenal is that they always try and walk it in.

/oblig.

One of the people substituted was Kaka. I think this says volumes on how pissed Jose was with his team.

/Probably would have swapped out Ronaldo too, but that's personal bias.

I don't think you're in a position to complain about convoluted rules when you can't even handle the rules governing "its" and "it's" yet.

/Must have been some serious whoopass in the halftime oranges

I can't read anything Mourinho says without picturing it being said by his Special1TV puppet.

Who cares about the Spanish cup??? What's next? The Polish championship?

Seriously, there's nothing more boring than Spanish football.
