If you’re a Roma fan, kudos for the win today. If you’re a Real Madrid fan, your voice is probably raspier than gypsy woman’s armpit from all the yelling at Guti’s horrific passes and Julio Baptista’s less than gentle touches. Real Madrid didn’t deserve to win. Roma played an outstanding game and if it weren’t for a blind line referee, the score would have read 2-0 instead of 2-1. Raul was offsides by a mile.
Anyway, what had us intrigued throughout the entire game were those nifty scarves players like Totti, Mancini and Cicinho were wearing. We know it can get cold in Madrid, but the Italian teams sure know how to stay warm in style. There really isn’t another league that can pull that off. In fact, Are those available for us petty weekend ballers? Sports Chalet better get them, asap. Mancini’s turtleneck after the jump.
