Carlos Puyol has somehow managed to escape two different yellow card tackles without even being called for a foul, which is rather impressive. First, he tripped Cristiano Ronaldo in the early going and now he's bundled over Marcelo about twenty yards out and got away with it completely. It's nice if you don't get the calls, but he looks a little bit off the pace here at the Santiago Bernabeu and if he keeps trying to make those tackles he's going to get punished for it.

He's not the only one getting away with things though - Pepe managed to turn a stumble from Lionel Messi into a prime chance to body check the forward without being called for a foul, and he made the most of hit by clattering his head as he was going to ground. It was a little bit rude, that, and Messi was down for some time. He's back up and going now though.
