Champions League Match Day 3 sees us take on Juventus at home. I will be so torn as my beloved Gigi Buffon and Andrea Pirlo take on our boys (not to mention Claudio Marchisio and Fernando Llorente). But it should be a really good match. Feel free to comment here pre, during and post match.
Starting line ups
Real Madrid: Iker, Pepe, Sergio, Marcelo, Arbeloa, Sami, Lady Edith, Di Maria, Illara, Cristiano and Benz.
Juventus: Buffon, Chiellini, Caceres, Ogbonna, Barzagli, Pogba, Marchisio, Pirlo, Vidal, Tevez, Llorente.
– Lozil

Of Headbands and Heartbreak... 
Ugh. So nervous! Sitting at work wearing my RM scarf and sneaking peeks at the match.
Likewise. Minus the scarf, of course.
the post-match lovefest between gigi and iker was even more than i could have hoped for. i love those two little whispering lovebugs.
i wish the sweet bambi birthday boy could have gotten a goal, but hey. a win is a win.
Gigi and Iker are always fun to watch, but that post-match moment was ADORABLE! They way they had their gloves up to hide the whispers, the hugging… I love them.
Agreed. I was almost sorry I didn’t take my camera with me to capture that moment.
The way we score and then just sit back… It causes me to age prematurely
Cristiano, who was my man of the match, did not wear his new galaxy boots.
I was there! While it’s obvious which team’s colors me and my new baby bump wore, I’ve got to admit that I disagree with the red card to Chiellini. There was contact, but it didn’t look like it deserved a direct dismissal. I totally guessed right that Cris was going to send the penalty to Buffon’s right.
First off, congratulations on your impending bundle of joy! What exciting news! When are you due? Might I suggest Sergio or Iker for boys names and Lozil or Maisougio if it’s a girl? 🙂
Gotta agree with you on that red card.
Aww, thank you! I’m due mid-April, and I’m only just starting to show a little, it still takes the right clothes (meaning, a tight enough shirt, lol) to look pregnant and not fat. I’m so excited!
How exciting! It must have been an amazing experience for you. Congratulations on your baby on the way! 🙂 for you!
Thank you!
