#el-clasico

Here, the atmosphere and the expectations that arise when a player of Mbappe's calibre arrives have an influence. But I believe that football today is, above all, about being a team. In that sense, Barcelona are superior: they play as a team, everyone defends, everyone attacks. And, what's more, they enjoy playing together.

We're staying calm in the run-up to the game. It's a big derby; if we win, we're champions. Even though a draw would be enough, our goal is to reach 100 points. With the team we have, we can do it, and it would be historic.

No. This depends on each individual, on each player's situation, but for me, being at Barça is the ultimate goal. It's my dream.

"Well, we have to turn the page as soon as possible, it's a game, it's a competition,"

One of those goals, however, stands above the rest. The moment came in October 2013 at Camp Nou. Barcelona were locked in a tense battle with Madrid when Sanchez spotted goalkeeper Diego Lopez slightly off his line. What followed was a perfectly weighted chip that floated into the net, sealing a vital Barça victory. The goal was not just decisive, but unforgettable for its quality and audacity.

"For me, Lamine is a great player and will be a player who will mark an era at Barça, I think, but well, in the end he spoke in a certain way, he heated up the game a bit and obviously the press jumped on him," Courtois noted. "Carva or Huijsen are in the national team and I think there's zero problem with Lamine. It's something that stays on the field and there's nothing going on off it," he further added.
