The first Clasico has delivered its verdict
Real Madrid and FC Barcelona faced each other on the night of Saturday to Sunday in a preparation match.

There will be at least three “Clasico” this season between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. The first was played in the United States on the night of Saturday to Sunday during a preparation match. The match between the two monsters of the
spanish football was won by the Catalans (2-1) and their new German coach Hansi Flick.

On the pitch at the MetLife Stadium in New York, Barça got the better of their historic enemy, winner in May of a fifteenth C1, thanks to a double from Pau Victor (42nd and 54th). This 22-year-old centre forward, loaned last season to Girona by the FC Barcelona reserve team, has not played any official matches with the Blaugranas.

Real Madrid, still driven by Carlo Ancelotti, who reduced the score at the end of the match with a header from Nico Paz (82nd), were deprived in particular of Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham and Federico Valverde, still on vacation.
