From 30 for 30 podcasts. Brian Pata, senior defensive lineman from Miami, gunned down. The key to this case, it's Brian. An hour before he died, he was on the phone arguing with somebody. This might be a hit. You want the truth. They just want a conviction. Being placed under arrest. We had a killer amongst us. Murder at the U. Listen now.
Hello and welcome into the latest edition of ESPN FC. Kay Murray, Craig Burley and Casey Keller here with you in the studio kicking things off tonight in La Liga where Real Madrid were looking to put back-to-back defeats behind them in all competitions with their game against Girona. However, all they could muster up was a 1-1 draw. The goals came in the second half, Fede Valverde struck first in the 51st minute, but then Thomas Lemar found the equaliser just over ten minutes later. Late on in the 87th minute, Mbappe went down under a challenge. Real Madrid wanted a penalty, Craig, but the referee wasn't having it. I think Mbappe was a little over theatrical. a little over theatrical and so it's more dropped points for Real Madrid as the game finished 1-1 it's not an easy time as it stands right now for Real Madrid Luis Garcia was watching it for us today he thought it might be a draw but let me start with you Craig more dropped points not good news for Real Madrid look it's hard to watch that and make an argument for how Real Madrid are going to win in Munich but we keep hearing about this Champions League just raises the standard which
It seems to have done, certainly in the last game. But that's the standard that we've seen most of the season. In fact, that's maybe a slightly better than we've seen most of the season. But that's a kind of mediocre standard that we've seen from Real Madrid that's left him in this position that only Barcelona losing really will give them half a chance because there's a classical coming on May 10th. a Barcelona win tomorrow, nine points, you can forget it. And that's because there's been too many of these games. Too many games where teams have defended deep and defended in an organised way, but Real Madrid haven't been able to break it down. And when you saw some of this stuff, and I don't blame Kylian Mbappé, who's having this bit of a dry spell.
The chances that he's missing are actually, I think, a lot of difficult chances. From angles, from balls coming over his head, it's not like he's missing sitters. But I look at Vinicius Junior today and there was a one point right at the end. And we have talked to all broadcasters about crosses into the box and better delivery and more delivery. He had an opportunity with a minute or two to go on the left-hand side to put an easy cross in and he tried to beat another two guys and gave it away. So that overcomplication from Real Madrid today happened quite a lot. So just not a good enough performance. But again, we've seen this type of thing at the Bernabeu a lot this season.
What happened in Real Madrid's recent match against Girona?
And I think what we've seen from them is because they have so much talent, Maybe somebody has a wonder strike from 25 or maybe there's just that moment where Mbappe is able to dribble a couple guys or one of those 10 attempts that Vinny had of trying to dribble six guys. Maybe he pulls one off and that's the odd goal that gives them the three points. but a well-organized Girona, and Girona even gifted him a goal. So, I mean, it is, it's a subpar. If Gazzaniga doesn't throw that in the back of the net, we're looking at Real Madrid. And I mean, Gazzaniga had a decent game. He makes the one mistake that gifts the goal, but yeah, that's... You lose three in a row, two of those being at home? No. I don't know about Luis, but I just don't see...
having watched how Bayern played in the first leg, and they can play even better. At home? I just don't see how this Real Madrid side can compete when I see games like this. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know. We're going to get to Bayern, but to that point, if you can't see how they're going to do it against Bayern, how can we be convinced that they do actually have a chance at the title in La Liga this season after tonight, Luis?
