El Clasico misses Messi and Ronaldo for the first time.. Is the match not exciting?

When Barcelona and Real Madrid meet tomorrow, Sunday, the confrontation between them will be the first (El Clasico) match between the two teams in many years that does not witness the presence of any of the two great stars, Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentine Lionel Messi.

Both Ronaldo and Messi left wonderful and great imprints in the history of El Clásico matches over the past years when Ronaldo was a star for Real and Messi a star for Barcelona.

But they are now absent from the El Clasico match after both of them left their teams.

Despite this, each of them is thinking of another top match at the same time that Barcelona and Real are preparing for tomorrow's Clasico, as they will play each other with their new team tomorrow, a strong match that is no less important for the team than the El Clasico match for Real and Barcelona.

Messi will play with his new team, Paris Saint-Germain, a traditional top match against Marseille tomorrow in the French League, while Ronaldo will face a difficult challenge with his new team, Manchester United, in the English Premier League, when he meets the Liverpool team led by the Egyptian Mohamed Salah, the best striker in the world currently.

That is why tomorrow, Sunday, will be one of the highlights of European football this season.

For the first time in many years, the Spanish League Clasico will witness the absence of Messi and Ronaldo together, similar to what happened in the latest version of the US Open (Flashing Meadows), which witnessed the absence of the two great stars, Swiss Roger Federer and Spaniard Rafael Nadal together for the first time in many years.

During the nine years that Ronaldo spent with Real Madrid, the player and Messi did not miss any Clasico match in the Spanish League, as each of them participated mainly in 17 copies of El Clasico matches, in addition to participating as a reserve in one match during that period.

Messi prevailed over Ronaldo in this series of Clasico matches in the Spanish League, where he won with his team ten of them, compared to only four victories for Real, while four matches ended in a draw.


At the level of goals, Barcelona scored 39 goals in this series, compared to 23 goals conceded.

Taking into account the El Clasico matches in various tournaments in the same period that Ronaldo spent with Real Madrid, the total of Real’s victories is ten matches, compared to 14 victories for Barcelona and eight draws in 32 Clasico matches between the two teams in that period in various tournaments.
