Barça and Real Madrid Legends to Play El Clasico in November

FC Barcelona has announced a special El Clasico match between its Legends team and Real Madrid Legends on 28 November, a day before the club celebrates its 125th anniversary. The highly anticipated encounter will take place at the Khalifa Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar.

According to a statement from the club, “One day before FC Barcelona celebrates its 125th anniversary, the Barça Legends will play the Real Madrid Leyendas at the Khalifa Stadium in Qatar.”

This will be the third meeting between the two legendary sides. Their inaugural clash in 2017 saw Barcelona emerge victorious with a 3-2 scoreline, courtesy of Ludovic Giuly’s two goals and Simao’s decisive strike. However, Real Madrid claimed a narrow 3-2 win in their 2021 rematch.

The Barça Legends team, coached by Albert Ferrer, is expected to feature an array of football icons, including Rivaldo, Saviola, Luis Garcia, Julio Salinas, and Henrik Larsson. Other notable former players, such as Giuly, Simao, Bojan Krkic, and Jofre, may also participate.

This thrilling event promises to be a nostalgic treat for football enthusiasts, celebrating the rich histories of both clubs and providing a unique opportunity to witness some of the greatest players from the past compete once more.

With excitement building, supporters eagerly anticipate what will undoubtedly be a memorable occasion.
