The weekend marked a great match-day for some big teams like Real Madrid of Spain, or AC Milan of Italy. Both of these teams had been going down the wrong path to become champions of their countries, but they both a victory this weekend that will lift a huge weight off of their backs. Real Madrid had achieved two ties and one loss in their last three games, and the manager Manuel Pellegrini was in danger of being fired. On Saturday however, Real Madrid played their town rivals Getafe, and the Real coach made a great decision on starting Higuain, because the Argentinian had not started in a couple matches, but got the two goals that gave Real Madrid the 2-0 victory over Getafe. This victory gives new hope to the title, and a little less to worry about for Pellegrini.
Crossing over to Italy, AC Milan had also been in bad form in the league recently, and their star player Ronaldinho had not done much to help this season. They played on Saturday as well, against Parma, and also got a 2-0 victory. Ronaldinho, two-time winner of the FIFA World Player of the Year award, came out of his slump on this game, giving assists to both goals scored by the Milan team. The scorer of these goals, Marco Boriello, also was having a bad year, plagued by injuries since late last season, this was the first game he started in 09-10 season, and what a start he had by scoring two goals and leading his team to victory.

I feel like pellegrini should be putting Higuain to play as a starter every match. Higuain is a great skilled player and scores in most games. Ronaldinho is a great player tho he was been slacking in most games when he plays good you can see the difference on the field.
