'El Clasico'

Real Madrid vs Barcelona. What a huge amount of people all over the world would define as the two biggest enemies in the world of football would face yet once more to dispute another 'Clasico' this past Monday.  Millions of viewers all around the globe; over forty cameras set up all around Camp Nou to captivate what was determined to be the greatest match of the semester. Mou against Pep. Ronaldo against Messi. Real Madrid against Barcelona.  Both teams were coming from a really successful moment in both the local league and the Champions. On one side, Mourinho's Real Madrid was still undefeated in the season, winning most of their matches and only drawing a couple. They had already classified for the play-offs in the Champions League, and so far, they were in first place in the local league. However, the second place was only a point away. Guardiola's Barcelona. They were coming from having a solid start to the season; pretty much classified to the play-offs in the Champions League, and only a point away from the spot at the top of the local league. What was going to be the most even' Clasico' in the past years turned out to be the exact opposite. Barcelona beat Madrid 5-0. It seemed like 'Los Merengues' never even showed up to the game. There was only one team on the field. This Saturday, almost a week after the catastrophe, Madrid will to show that they are strong enough mentally to have overcome what happened in the 'Clasico'. They’ll have to lift up their spirits and make it up to its people, now at home. They’ll be playing another big one of Spain, Valencia; with a lot of suspensions and injuries, Madrid will still hopefully win.
