In El Clásico, Ronald Koeman sent a very young FC Barcelona team to face a strong Real Madrid, fresh off a Champions League win over Liverpool. Barcelona lost 2:1. It was their second loss to Real Madrid this year, who they haven’t beaten in two years now. But, the league wasn’t lost, an impressive feat for a team that we predicted would be fighting for fourth place earlier this season. Lionel Messi has given his demands to Joan Laporta, a reasonable set of requirements for him to continue with the club. Barca face Athletic Club in the Copa del Rey final next Saturday.
