Guardiola: four "El Clasico" - a gift for football fans © EuroFootball.com

Strategist Pep Guardiola assures that four "El Clasico" matches in less than a month will be a true gift for football fans.

The clubs will not only compete in the Spanish championship match and the King's Cup final, but will also face each other twice in the Champions League semi-finals.

"This is a real gift for people who love sports," the specialist said. "In this situation, we can thank the football players and consider all of this a gift. It's an opportunity to compete against the strongest opponent."

"No matter how many times we compete, 'Real' is still the strongest team, with an amazing lineup. We have to accept the challenge and enter the fight."

Asked to comment on rumors that Barcelona players seem tired, Guardiola said: "It doesn't matter what condition we are in. The most important thing is mentality and attitude."
