You might not believe us, but Jason McAteer outplayed Zizou at the Bernabeu today

Will Slattery

What a day for the Mc attack.

Liverpool took on Real Madrid in a charity match at the Bernabeu this afternoon and both sides were packed full of legends like Zinedine Zidane, Michael Owen, Roberto Carlos and… Abel Xavier.

Real Madrid: Buyo, Roberto Carlos, Pavon, Sanchis, Salgado, Zidane, Solari, Makelele, Karembeu, Butragueno, Morientes.

Liverpool: Dudek, Xavier, Henchoz, Carragher, McAteer, McManaman, Berger, Luis Garcia, Owen, Fowler, Bellamy.

Real won 4-2 but somewhat surprisingly, Jason McAteer was the star of the opening exchanges, laying on assists for Harry Kewell and Michael Owen to score.

Hearing the phrase ‘Jason McAteer assisted a Harry Kewell header at the Bernabeu’ makes you feel like you’re living in a Fringe-esque parallel universe.
