Today, the majority of the world eagerly awaits the clash of two giants from Spain. The second "El Clasico" match of the season will take place at the "Camp Nou" stadium.
The first match at the "Santiago Bernabeu" fortress ended with a humiliation for Madrid's "Real" footballers. Although the battle for the championship title in the Spanish "Primera" league is almost over, this "El Clasico" is exceptional in that for the first time as coaches, Zinedine Zidane will face Luis Enrique.
Barcelona's conqueror, L. Enrique, has been leading the Catalan team for a second consecutive season, while Z. Zidane has been directing the main "Real" team since January 4th of this year.
The last time the winners of the UEFA Champions League experienced a defeat in the Spanish championship was on October 3, 2015. Meanwhile, "Real", under the guidance of the French football legend, played 12 matches in Spain and so far has one defeat against Madrid's "Atletico".
Before this clash, many remembered the "El Clasico" match that took place almost 13 years ago in April. Barcelona played away and drew 1-1 with Real, but this match is remembered not for the draw, but for the clash between the current team strategists.
Z. Zidane fouled Carles Puyol in the middle of the second half, and L. Enrique tried to defend his teammate with harsh words, soon infuriating the Frenchman and leading to both teams and the referee intervening.
"El Clasico" matches always involve emotions, but it seems that this time Z. Zidane and L. Enrique won't need to be separated, as the strategists shook hands before and after the game.
