Rivalry
History
The conflict between Real Madrid and Barcelona has long surpassed the sports dimension, so the club presidential election is highly politicized.
In the early 1930s, Barcelona "has developed a reputation as a symbol of Catalan identity, against Madrid's centralized tendency". In 1936, when Francisco Franco started Kud d'ÃÆ' Â © tat against the democratic Second Republic of Spain, the president of Barcelona, ​​Josep Sunyol, a member of the Left Republic of Catalonia and Vice for The Cortes, was arrested and executed without trial by Franco's forces (Sunyol is conducting his political activities, visiting Republican forces in northern Madrid).
Barcelona is at the top of the list of organizations that must be cleared by the National faction, just after communism, anarchist and independent. During Franco's dictatorship, most of Barcelona's citizens strongly opposed fascist rites like fascists. Phil Ball, author of Morbo: The Story of Spanish Football , says about the game; "They hate each other with intensity that can really surprise outsiders".
During the dictatorships of Miguel Primo de Rivera and Francisco Franco, all the languages ​​and regional identities of Spain were constricted and restrained. In this period, Barcelona gained their motto MÃÆ' Â © s que un club English: More than a club ) due to its alleged relationship with Catalan nationalists as well as progressive beliefs. During the Franco regime, however, Barcelona was given advantage because of its good relationship with dictators at the management level, even awarding two awards to him. The relationship between the senior representatives of Real Madrid and Franco's regime can not be denied; for most Catalans, Real Madrid is considered a "founding club", despite the fact that the presidents of both clubs like Josep Sunyol and Rafael SÃÆ'¡nchez Guerra, suffered in the hands of Franco supporters in the Spanish Civil War.
Images for both clubs were more influenced by the formation of the Ultras group, some of which became hooligans. In 1980, Ultras Sur was established as Real Madrid's ultra-right group, followed in 1981 by a former left-leaning foundation and then on the far-right, the Barcelona ultras group Boixos Nois. Both groups became notorious for their violent acts, and one of the most confrontational factions of Barcelona supporters, being relaxed, became a full-fledged criminal organization.
For many, Barcelona is still regarded as a "rebel club", or an alternative pole for "Real Madrid conservatism". According to a poll released by the CIS (Centro de Investigaciones SociolÃÆ'³gicas), Real Madrid is the favorite team most of the Spanish population, while Barcelona stands in the second position. In Catalonia, the power of all political spectrum strongly supports Barcelona. However, the blaugrana club support far beyond the region, to get best result among young people, maintain the federal structure of Spain and the people with left-wing ideology, in contrast with the Real Madrid supporters who are politically inclined to adopt appropriate -wing display.
1943 Copa del GeneralÃÆ'simo semi-final
On 13 June 1943, Real Madrid beat Barcelona 11-1 at home in the second leg of the Copa del GeneralÃÆ'simo semi-final, the Copa del Rey has been renamed in honor of General Franco. The first leg, played at Barcelona's Les Corts stadium in Catalonia, ended with Barcelona winning 3-0. Madrid complained about all three goals allowed by referee Fombona FernÃÆ'¡ndez for Barcelona, ​​with host fans also blowing all of Madrid, whom they accuse of using rough tactics, and Fombona for allowing them. A campaign begins in Madrid. Barcelona's Josep Valle recalled: "Press officers at DND and ABC newspapers wrote all sorts of frightening lies, really horrible things that make Madrid fans unlike before". While former Real Madrid goalkeeper Eduardo Teus, who admitted that Madrid "played very hard", wrote in the newspaper: "The land itself makes Madrid recognize two out of three goals, a totally unfair goal".
Barcelona fans are banned from traveling to Madrid. Real Madrid released a statement after a game that former club president (1985-1995) RamÃÆ'³n Mendoza explained, "The message got through that fans who want to be able to go to El Club bar in Calle de la Victoria where the social center of Madrid is located. given whistles.. Others whistle who gave them tickets. "On the day of the second leg, the Barcelona team was humiliated and the stones were thrown onto their bus as soon as they left their hotel. Barcelona striker Mariano Gonzalvo said of the incident, "Five minutes before the game starts, our penalty area is already full of coins." Barcelona goalkeeper Lluis MirÃÆ'³ rarely comes close to his line - when he does so, he is armed with rocks. When Francisco Calvet told the story, "They shouted: Reds! Separatists! ... a bottle just lost Sospedra who will kill him if it beats him.
Real Madrid climbed 2-0 in half an hour. The third goal brought it send off for Benito GarcÃÆ'A Barcelona after he made what Calvet claimed to be "completely normal tackle". Madrid Josà ©  © Llopis Corona recalled, "At that point, they are a little bit discouraged," while Mur retorted, "at which point, we thought: 'go, scoot as much as you want'." Madrid scored in 31 ', 33', 35 ', 39', 43 'and 44', as well as two goals ruled out for offside, making it 8-0. Basilo de la Morena has been caught by goal speed. In that atmosphere and with a referee who wants to avoid any complications, it is impossible for humans to play... If azulgranas play badly, very badly, the scoreboard still has not reached that astronomical figure. The bottom line is that they do not play at all. "The two clubs were fined 2,500 pesetas by the Spanish Football Federation and, although Barcelona appealed, it made no difference.The PiÃÆ'  ± eyro resigned in protest, complaining about" the campaign that the press had against Barcelona for a week and that culminated in that day embarrassing in ChamartÃÆ'n ".
The match reports in the newspaper La Prensa describe Barcelona's sole purpose as "a reminder that there are teams there who know how to play football and that if they did not do it that afternoon, it was not their fault right". Other newspapers call the scoreline "as absurd as it is not normal". According to soccer writer Sid Lowe, "There has been little mention of the game [since] and it is not a result that has been highly celebrated in Madrid.Indeed, 11-1 occupies a much more prominent place in the history of Barcelona.This is the game that first formed the identification Madrid as a dictatorship team and Barcelona as a victim. "Fernando Argila, Barcelona's reserve keeper from the game, said," There is no rivalry, not, at least, until the game. "
In the StÃÆ'Â © transfer fano
Competition intensified during the 1950s when clubs denied the signing of Alfredo Di StÃÆ' Â © fano. In StÃÆ'Â © fano has impressed Barcelona and Real Madrid while playing for Los Millionarios in BogotÃÆ'¡, Colombia, during a strike player in his native Argentina. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona are trying to sign it and, due to the confusion emerging from Di StÃÆ'Â © fano moved to Millonarios from River Plate after the strike, both clubs claimed to have their registration. After the intervention of FIFA representative MuÃÆ'Â Â ± oz Calero, it was decided that both Barcelona and Real Madrid should share players in the alternate season. Disgraced Barcelona president was forced to resign by Barcelona council, with the council temporarily canceling a contract In StÃÆ'Â © fano. It ended a long struggle for In StÃÆ'Â © fano, as he moved definitively to Real Madrid.
At StÃÆ'Â © fano became an integral part in the subsequent success achieved by Real Madrid, scoring two goals in his first game against Barcelona. With him, Real Madrid won the first five European Champions Cup competitions. The 1960s saw the competition reach the European stage when they met twice in the European Cup, Real Madrid won in 1960 and Barcelona won in 1961.
Transfer Luigo Figo
In 2000, the Real Madrid presidential candidate, Florentino PÃÆ' Ã © rez, offered Barcelona vice-captain LuÃÆ's Figo $ 2.4 million just to sign an agreement that tied him to Madrid if he wins the election. If the player breaks the deal, he/she must pay PÃÆ' Â © rez $ 30 million as compensation. When his agent confirmed the deal, Figo denied it all, insisting, "I will remain in Barcelona whether PÃÆ' Â © rez win or lose." He accused the presidential candidate of "lying" and "fantasizing". He told Barcelona team-mates Luis Enrique and Pep Guardiola he did not go and they delivered the message to the Barcelona squad.
On July 9th, Sport runs an interview where she says, "I want to send a calm message to Barcelona fans, which I always have and will always feel great affection. assured them that LuÃÆ's Figo will, with absolute certainty, be at Camp Nou on the 24th to start a new season... I have not signed a pre-contract with a presidential candidate at Real Madrid.No, I am not so angry to do such a thing. "
The only way Barcelona can prevent Figo's transfer to Real Madrid is to pay a penalty penalty, $ 30 million. That effectively means paying the fifth highest transfer fee in history to sign their own players. The new president of Barcelona, ​​Joan Gaspart, called the media and told them, "Today, Figo gives me the impression that he wants to do two things: get richer and live in BarÃÆ'§a." Only one thing happened. The next day, July 24, Figo was presented in Madrid and handed over his new shirt by Alfredo Di StÃÆ'Â © fano. The purchase clause is set at $ 180 million. Gaspart later admitted, "Figo's move is destroying us."
Upon returning to Barcelona with a Real Madrid shirt, banners with "Judas", "Scum" and "Mercenary" hung around the stadium. Thousands of counterfeit banknotes of 10,000 pesetas have been printed and embellished with their image, among the orange missiles, bottles, cigarette lighters, and even some mobile phones thrown at him. In his third season with Real Madrid, 2002 Clásico at Camp Nou produced one of the decisive images of the competition. Figo mercilessly mocked the whole; coin missiles, a knife, a bottle of whiskey, rainstorms from the stands, mostly from areas occupied by Boixos Nois where he took a turn. Among the debris was a pig's head.
Recent issues
Over the last three decades, competition has been added to the modern Spanish tradition of Pasillo, where a team is awarded honorary guard by another team, after the former won the La Liga trophy before El ClÃÆ'¡sico took place. This has happened in three occasions. First, during El ClÃÆ'¡sico which took place on 30 April 1988, in which Real Madrid won the championship in the previous round. Then, three years later, when Barcelona won the two-round championship before El ClÃÆ'¡sico on June 8, 1991. The last Pasillo, and most recently, occurred on May 7, 2008, and this time Real Madrid have won the championship.

On 26 June 1983, during the second leg of the Copa de la Liga final at the Santiago Bernabà © u in Madrid, after dribbling past Real Madrid goalkeeper, Barcelona star Diego Maradona raced towards the empty goal before it stopped just as the Madrid defender came. sliding in an effort to block a shot and hit a pole before Maradona put the ball into the net. The way Maradona's goal caused many Madrid fans inside the stadium to start applauding. In November 2005, Ronaldinho became the second Barcelona player to receive a standing ovation from Madrid fans at Santiago Bernabà © u. After guiding Madrid's defense twice to score two goals in a 3-0 win, Madrid fans paid tribute to his performance with applause. On November 21, 2015, AndrÃÆ'Ã… © s Iniesta became the third Barcelona player to receive applause from Real Madrid fans as he was replaced during a 4-0 away win, with Iniesta scoring the third from BarÃÆ'§a.
A 2007 survey by Centro de Investigaciones SociolÃÆ'³gicas showed that 32% of the Spaniards support Real Madrid, while 25% support Barcelona. In third place comes Valencia, with 5%. According to a poll conducted by Ikerfel in 2011, Barcelona is the most popular team in Spain with 44% of preference, while Real Madrid is second with 37%. Atlà © tico Madrid, Valencia, and Athletic Bilbao completed the top five. Both clubs have a global fan base and two of the world's most followed sports teams in social media - on Facebook, in March 2016, Barcelona has 91 million fans, Real Madrid has 87 million fans.
Competition is increasing in 2011 where, due to the Copa Del Rey final and the second meeting in UEFA Champions League, Barcelona and Real Madrid are scheduled to meet each other four times in 18 days. Some allegations of unsportsman behavior of both teams and war of words erupted throughout the gear including four red cards. Spain's national team coach Vicente del Bosque stated that he was "worried" that due to increased hatred between the two clubs, this could lead to friction on the Spanish team.
In recent years, the competition has been "packed" by the rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Following the signing of Neymar and Luis SuÃÆ'¡rez stars to Barcelona, ​​Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema to Madrid, the rivalry has been extended to the battle of clubs that attacked the trio, "BBC" (Bale, Benzema, Cristiano) against "MSN" (Messi, SuÃÆ'¡rez, Neymar).
