Maybe they should buy a decent ballwinner to play in midfield and stop poncing about?
MADRID
Reuters - Real Madrid ended a miserable year on a low note when they lost 1-0 at home to high-flying Sevilla in the Primera Liga.
Brazilian striker Julio Baptista produced a cool finish after 19 minutes, clipping the ball over the head of keeper Iker Casillas to inflict a second home defeat of the season on Real.
It was
FC Sevilla's first league victory at the
Bernabeu in 20 years and had it not been for some superb last-ditch saves from Casillas and some wasteful finishing by Sevilla's forwards the margin would have been much greater.
The result left
Real Madrid who substituted David Beckham at halftime and withdrew his England team mate Michael Owen late on, in fifth place, a distant 13 points behind leaders
Barcelona who claimed a late 2-1 win over
Levante on Tuesday.
