The Classic / 25 March of 2014

The last Sunday was celebrated one of the most important events in the Soccer World: the Spanish Classic.

We call Classic the football match between the two teams that have played against each other the most times.
Years ago, the Spanish Classic was celebrated between Athletic de Bilbao and Real Madrid but the name of Classic used to be assigned to the most popular match: F.C.Barcelona - R.Madrid.
Nowadays the term of Classic is linked correctly to this match because it has been celebrated 226 times.

Last Sunday 23rd March, F.C.Barcelona won the meeting 3-4 in the Bernabeu stadium. The match was influenced by the referee who blowed the whistle awarding three penalties, one in favour of Madrid and two in favour of Barcelona. In addition, the referee showed the red card to Sergio Ramos when he barely touched Neymar who threw himself on the ground simulating a penalty.

In my opinion, the last Classic was one of the best meetings between the both teams because of they played very well and the public enjoyed a great match.
