Barcelona FC Vs Real Madrid

Spain is currently the world capital of soccer. Not only did they lift the World Cup last year, but, in Barcelona and Real Madrid, they have two of the best soccer clubs in the world.

Naturally, the rivalry between these two soccer giants is intense, and each time they meet, the reputations of both teams are subject to immense pressure, not only from their respective loyal fan bases, but also from the media of the country. world.

Both teams play in La Liga, the first Spanish division. When these two great football giants meet, (at least twice a year in league competition, and more if they face each other in one of the European trophy matches), the name given to the games, (yes , they actually have a special name for this particular soccer game), it’s “El Clásico” – El Clásico.

Since these two clubs began playing against each other in 1902, Real Madrid have a slight advantage, with a total of 74 victories over their former rivals, compared to 73 for Barcelona.

In reality, the origin of their great rivalry is politically charged. Barcelona FC, more affectionately known as Barça, (correct pronunciation “Barsa”), is the champion of the Catalan region and its peoples, while Real Madrid many years ago were associated with the fascist Franco regime. This clash between the people and the establishment was the basis of what is one of the fiercest sporting rivalries in the world today.

There is an astonishing story that tells of the fate of one Alfredo di Stefano, now a figure of legend for both clubs. His arrival in Spain from Deportivo Los Millonarios of Argentina came amid fierce competition between Real and Barça, who were desperate to sign the player. In the ensuing confusion over the bitter discussion of who he would play for, it was decided that he would play for Real Madrid one year and Barça the next.

The intense confrontation between the two clubs resembles a reenactment of the Spanish Civil War, a situation that was recently accentuated when only last Wednesday the Real Madrid coach, José Mourinho, put his finger in the eye of the assistant of the Barça coach Tito Vianova after previous incidents on the field of play. . Many fear that the unrest between the two clubs will spread to the national team, which currently has nine Barça players on its squad.

But rivalries aside, these two great clubs have provided wonderful spectacles of scintillating football in recent years, although it is an undeniable fact that Barcelona FC are on the rise right now. Their explosive football style is hard for any other club to follow, and they have humiliated many other great football clubs in the world as they did Manchester United when they defeated them in the final of the European Cup last season.

FC Barcelona is currently THE club to consider. In recent head-to-head matches with Real Madrid, Barça have won 6 of the last 10 games absolutely, and Real have only achieved 2 victories; the other games are drawn. Barcelona racked up their longest unbeaten streak in La Liga last season with 28 unbeaten matches, and with nine from their current squad on the international squad, they are truly a force to be reckoned with. Real Madrid eat their hearts!
