34 & # 39; Real Madrid wins a free kick in swing-it-the-mixer territory, much to Valverde's dismay. Kroos pulls her back to the back post and Reguilón plays almost on Ramos' header just in front of the goal, but Barcelona understands it clearly and – thanks to Suarez's stupid claim for a handball in the box after the Madrid captain has clearly squashed the ball – Rakitic came down 25 meters from the goal. This is a great free kick opportunity for Messi … but he is balancing his efforts over the bar.
33 & # 39; Rakitic puts on a delicious diagonal ball in Messi's race in the box. If Argentina recovers it, it is probably 2-0. But he does not have it.
31 & # 39; Modric is terribly successful in winning Alba's return ball at the edge of Barcelona's penalty area, before crossing the dangerous zone while waiting for Benzema and Vinicius. The Brazilian eventually falls, but he can not be shot and the chance is lost. A minute later, Reguilón strikes from the left in goalsbut he flies one meter wide from Ter Stegen's right post.
29 & # 39; Reguilón passes in front of Alba and enters the surface, before embarking on the field under the challenge of Arthur, but Undiano Mallenco is not fooled. It's a clear dive. The young Madrid man escapes the yellow card, to the great indignation of Barça.
27 & # 39; Vinicius hits a ball directly in the arms of Ter Stegen. "Madrid does not create the same danger as Wednesday," Maldini told Spanish TV.
It's so simple, but so wonderfully executed. Sergi Roberto hits a low ball in Rakitic's run in the box, and control of the Croatians, lifts his head and scores a great goal! Barça in the lead at Bernabéu!
25 & # 39; Gooooal in Barcelona! Rakitic with a nice finish!
24 & # 39; Suárez wins a corner on the right for Barcelona, which Reguilón heads only until Uruguayan at the back of the area … but he makes a mistake of control, to the delight of the spectators.
21 & # 39; Pique puts in a vital block! Madrid brings Vinicius in the direction of the left line. He brings it back to Benzema who, in turn, hands it to Modric in the shooting space located just inside the surface. He pretends to pass, goes inside and makes an effort to the corner, but Piqué is there. The replays suggest that Ter Stegen would have arrived anyway.
18 & # 39; Messi is so close to the goal! There are flippers on the edge of the box, and suddenly Argentina is about to overshadow the area to go ahead in front of Courtois … but his lopsided efforts go adrift!
14 & # 39; It's a great rescue from Courtois! Although the flag was in place, it would not have counted. Busquets, who is finally considered to be in an offside position, gives the ball to Suárez, who tries a very tight shot in the bottom corner, but the Real Madrid goalkeeper is back in full swing! Top stop even though it was not necessary in the end.
12 & # 39; Near Madrid! The home side wins a free kick when Lenglet commits a foul on Vinicius. The delivery of Kroos ends up returning to Varane. The capture of the defender is blocked by Lenglet on the penalty spot, but the lost ball falls on Kroos and hits the goal up … but Ter Stegen is down!
ten & # 39; Barça almost found Suárez, but again, it is Varane who cut the pass – delivered on this occasion by Alba – just in time. Moments later, Rakitic found himself face to face with Reguilón in the penalty area, but Undiano Mallenco dismissed Blaurgana's call to the shot..
9 & # 39; Benzema has a goal in sight … but he drags his efforts from one goal to the other! The Frenchman is found by a beautiful diagonal Reguilón ball, passes Piqué and enters the surface, but fails to connect correctly with his shot.
8 & # 39; Vinicius receives his first real sniff of the ball and quickly commits a foul on Piqué. Shortly after, the Brazilian is more likely to advance in the Barcelona half field and run in the background of visitors, but is dispossessed with relative ease..
5 & # 39; Ufff. Messi very close puts Suárez to run in space to shoot insidebut Varane is opposite just enough quickly to clear. Just the five goals of Uruguayan against Madrid up to now this period, incidentally. Of which two last night, of course.
Busquets received early yellow card for this foul on Kroos, by the way. "It's a huge reservation," said the Julio Pundit "Maldini". Maldonado on Spanish television, and it's hard to disagree.
3 & # 39; Bale is who stands above … and he pumps it in row Z.
2 & # 39; Bale claims a free kick for what he thinks is a Piqué handball that seeks to beat the pace. Nothing to do, says Mr. Undiano Mallenco, but Moments later, Madrid gets a dead ball opportunity, when Busquets is accused of having shot Kroos on the edge of the box..
Peeeeeeep! On the way to Bernabéu!
Come teams! The referee tonight is Alberto Undiano Mallenco, who had not been originally nominated for the matchAlejandro Hernández Hernández, who had been initially hired, was recruited.
It is a game in which, in truth, the task that falls to Madrid is, if I say it, a little bit a victory.. To win at home in Barcelona for the second time in a few days is a possibility to which no one of Madrid inclination wishes to place himself; in the meantime, if the Blancos rank first, they will still have six points ahead of the leaders – and unless a sufficient win to wipe out Barça's advantage this season, either In addition to that, it would remain that they lost to Barça, or at best eliminated, in the three matches in which they are most important.
By the way, it's the first time that Barcelona is playing back to back with rivals. And, as we mentioned earlier, it is a doubly historic opportunity for them to leave Bernabéu with a second victory in four days: at the 242nd match of the two teams, Barça have the chance to beat Madrid overall victory – 96 to 95 – for the first time since all the way in 1932.
And "give it time" is also the mantra adopted by the very own Robbie Dunne of AS Englishwho wrote a few words about "Vini".
Vinicius is a young man who was part of the Brazilian team., who was summoned for the first time by the boss of Seleçao, Titus – and who, following his recent games for Real Madrid, deserves ample credit. It was great Wednesday night – except when we had to put the ball in the net, of course. The former player, coach and sports director of Madrid, Jorge Valdano, is confident. And what player will he be if and when he will.
Marcelo is missing again at the back left, where Sergio Reguilón really is established under Solari and keeps his place. This last blow for the Brazilian has just returned to the disappointment of being omitted from his national team.
Basel begins for Real Madrid in what could be his last Clásico – as was reported by AS yesterday, the Welsh would be "about to borrow" from the champions of Europeafter a six-year career at Bernabéu where he was often a man for the big occasion – tonight's opponents know that all too well …
Bank of Barcelona: Cillessen, Vidal, Malcom, Umtiti, Semedo, Coutinho and Aleñá.
Isco, who is back in the group for the first time since early February, after recovering from an injury, does the bench. He certainly seemed to be in great shape at the training this week, but is on the right track since Santiago Solari succeeded Julen Lopetegui at the end of October. Will we see him at some point tonight? Who knows. According to a survey conducted by AS.com before Clásico tonight, it would have started if it had been reserved for fans of Madrid …
Real Madrid Bench: Keylor, Marcelo, Valverde, Lucas, Asensio, Isco, Ceballos. Jesús Vallejo, Mariano Díaz and Luca Zidane are the three men in Santiago Solari's initial group of 21 players.
Only change of staff for Barcelona, with Arthur Melo coming back in the middle and Sergi Roberto, who debuted in the visitors' machine room Wednesday, joined the defense to replace Nelson Semedo at the back.
Here is the Real Madrid XI in old text format: Courtois, Carvajal, Varane, Ramos, Regular, Modric, Casemiro, Kroos, Bale, Benzema, Vinicius. In addition to the inclusion of Gareth Bale in the place of Lucas Vázquez, the only other change that made the Clásico lose midweek is the return of LaLiga goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, between the sticks, with Keylor Navas on the bench.
An important Barça man, who does not usually miss this match, will not be in the stadium tonight, although nothing to do with the selection of Valverde. The president of the club, Josep Maria Bartomeu, stays at home.
Ernersto Valverde believes Clásico will not be "decisive" in La Liga race, but we think rather that the boss of Barça protests too much. It will certainly be sure to hit Madrid from the account and boss of Atletico Madrid Diego Simeone said Bernabéu's result would not matter if his team did not win at Sociedad, something they have done only once in their last four trips to Anoeta.
No one is immune from criticism at Real Madrid these days. Former director Benrd Schuster called Toni Kroos a "diesel tractor", but Kroos reacted with a wonderfully passive-aggressive response on Twitter.
There have been a few Clásicos over the years, but you would have had to have a party at Camp Nou to enjoy the right to boast of Madrid: If Barça take it today, it will beat Real between both sides for the first time since 1932..
Here is an alternative overview of Real Madrid and Barcelona, their differences in goals and how they will align today.
All the best Clásico look-alikes.
Gareth Bale has scored only two goals in 13 games against Barcelona. He was whistled Wednesday night when he came into play and struggles in his worst spell in white. However, he could have the chance today to correct this record against Barça and to return the fans on his side.
Only two active players in the current teams have achieved a Clásico hat trick. Neither one nor the other plays for Real Madrid. You can get a rating of 70/1 on Vinicius by adding his name to the list tonight, with Karim Benzema priced at around 30/1. Messi added that his 51st career hat-trick in the Bernabéu is as low as 15/1 per place.
At the start of today 's game, Barcelona has seven points ahead of the standings and a win will almost certainly ensure that Atletico Madrid, second, will be all that the best. Ernesto Valverde's team will have to occupy in his rear-view mirror in the last 12 matches.. Real would be 12 points behind in the event of defeat and the most optimistic Madridist should concede that it is a sinkhole at this stage of the season.
If all this sounds a bit unfamiliar to you, then you probably listened to the Copa del Rey Clásico three full days ago, who was also staged at the Bernabéu and ended with a 3-0 win for the visitors. You can have a reading of how that happened here.
Clásico is back at the moment and AS English will bring all the latest newswatch the news and colors of the capital as the biggest spectacle of Spanish football unfolds on Saturday 2 March.
