Raul you own Santiago Bernabeu

The reception that Raul got tonight at the Bernabeu was something beautiful, emotional and moving.
Even the Spanish King Juan Carlos was there to felicitate, hug and present Raul with a momento.
It was truly a moment to cherish.
A moment where a Football Club opens its heart and soul for a player who has dedicated his entire footbalistic career to his beloved Club.
This should be an example to all the young players of the Team and the future players who are yet to join the Club of what can be and what is possible with Real Madrid.
It was therefore appropriate and fitting that Raul scored the first goal. It was a brilliantly finished goal. A goal which marks a great striker of the ball. A first touch and knew exactly what he was there to do.
The rest of the first half was poor. Madrid had the lion's share of the possession but could not score. In fact it seemed that they did not have any clear ideas of how to score. It was disappointing and dreary.
The second half saw 4 more goals and therefore was much better.
But there is no room for complacency. The players have to perform and there were many today who didn't.
Isco stood out again from the rest.
It seems that this season, Isco has to do a great deal for the team, if Real Madrid is going to win any silverware.
Finally the night was for Raul Gonzalez Blanco.
And he showed us glimpses of what he was during his glory days.
Thank you Raul.
