Barça v Madrid
If the sintliating atmosphere of 98,500 fans witnessed last night at the Nou Camp has whetted your appetite, you can have a taste yourself when Barcelona take on Real Madrid in “El Gran Classico” on the 2nd April. Tickets for this match are always at a premium but if you bring enough hard cash, you are sure to find ticket sellers outside the stadium on match day or youcan find them through some of the links below. This really is a unique season to see Barcelona in action. Runaway leaders of the Spanish League, looking odds-on to win the European Cup for this first time in almost 15 years and with arguably one of the best players ever in the form of Ronaldhino, its a chance to witness history. Madrid on the other hand are in freefall having lost their president and bickering erupting between the “galacticos” who look set to be dismantled. The link for the Barcelona stadium website is:
