The new lord of Spain against the great lord of Europe
Colosseum Barcelona and Real Madrid jump against each other in the last edition of El Classico for the current season. The Battle of Camp Nou has no weight for a decisive game, but only for honor. The Catalans are sure champions, and Los Merengues are heading for a third consecutive Trophy in the Champions League - a grand precedent in the modern history of the tournament.
The most serious argument before the fight was whether the "whites" should make a sparrow or not. Zinedine Zidane said early on that he would not have a champions meeting, pointing to the reason: the lack of a sparrow at the end of December when the Los Cules did not welcome the World Cup. Experts and fans discuss what is more important - the double in Spain or a possible Champions League cup.
On the Sunday night of Camp Nou, a figure will be above all. Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will remain in the background at the expense of the hero of Spain Andres Iniesta. This will be the last great night for the Fuentesalbai master. The fans of the blagranas squeeze Andres to be in a state of play for the last time to show his magic in classics.
The most expensive purchase in Barca's history, Philippe Coutinho, will for the first time be able to demonstrate its qualities in the hot fight that has traditionally been seen by hundreds of millions around the world. Zinedine Zidane has personnel problems before the meeting in Catalonia. Daniel Carvajal is sure to be absent, and two major players - Rafael Varan and Isco - are also under serious questions. The French mentor has openly said he will come up with an optimum line but will not risk anyone who is not 100 percent.
The big Liverpool final is only 20 days later, but the madrids want to show that their performance in the Primer is not indicative of their level. Barcelona is still angry at the shocking dropout from Roma and the Real Madrid tour will be their last season's opportunity to show their strength.
The emblematic match is this evening at 21.45 hours. The three points do not change anything in the standings, but victory is a matter of honor!
