Zapping World Eleven TOP 10: The most beautiful Ligue 1 2021/2022 jerseys
It was completely crazy. In an evening that will remain etched in our memories, Real Madrid managed to qualify for the semi-finals of the Champions League thanks to their 3-2 defeat at home against Chelsea (they had won 3-1 at going to England). A qualification obtained in pain and without really mastering the game, enough to make Xavi Hernandez, the Barça coach, react. Asked at a press conference about the performance of his eternal rival before the Blaugrana’s C3 quarter-final return, the Blaugrana coach sent a very subtle little spade to the people of Madrid, under a background of rivalry.
“I don’t know about Madrid”
“Barca’s history requires us (to play good football), not Madrid, and our history over the last 40 years has set a standard, which is to win by playing well. I don’t know what it’s about Madrid, I haven’t lived there and I don’t know their history I saw the game, our mission is to be in the Champions League next season, it’s Barça, we have the obligation to win and play well. For those who know the club, this means being excellent in everything, which is why Barça is the most difficult club in the world, the most demanding, there is no ‘exception”. A message that the Catalan supporters will appreciate, and which should make the people of Madrid react!
