The clasico of clasicos is in just over 1 hour from now. This clasico is even more important since both teams are tied at the first place of the Liga. Real Madrid are ahead because of a better goal difference but in case there is a tie tonight, Barça will lead because in the Spanish Liga it is the specific goal difference between the 2 teams that matters and Barça has won the first game 1-0.
So why do I want Barça to win:
- They simply have a style that I prefer. Great passing, players always in movement, willingness to play towards the goal and not laterally.
- Messi, Messi, Messi! The best player in the world without question. Just love his capacity to make a difference.
- The patience in building a team and not spending hundreds of millions of euros to mend a patchwork like Real.
- The aim of forming young players in-house and giving them their chance.
- Thierry Henri plays for Barça and he is a personal favourite (hope he plays tonight).
Maracanazos like to take sides.
The result shows your desires and forecast were achieved
The game played by Barça too, only that the “great man” was Xavi, y totally outstanding, with 3 “decisive passes” for …2 goals , the first bringing the very important frirst goal, converted by … Messi ( fantastic in this occasion )
Real did not play badly, they just are not that good …Higuain fails in the great matches and Ronaldo was rather alone and did what he could
Regretfully Titi did not play, rather non understandable ?
