    No more friendly matches – it’s time to make things official, almost.

Real Madrid, the La Liga champions, and Barcelona, the Copa del Rey and league runners-up, in what is always more than just a Super Cup match with the potential to both produce fantastic football, especially considering it’s still August, and for emotions and the rivalry itself to take over and turn it into something a bit more physical, aggressive and violent than you would expect.

  • Lionel Messi Above Everyone Else (Barcelona vs Real Madrid)

    With so many stars, the little Argentinian was again the best man on the pitch. Cesc Fabregas might have finally gotten his debut for Barcelona, but it was, like so many nights tend to be at the Nou Camp, like so many Barcelona vs Real Madrid Clasicos, Lionel Messi’s show, his night.
