El-Clasico: Head to Head Stats | sportzpoint.com

El Clasico refers to a match between two of Spain's biggest teams, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. The rivalry goes beyond the football field as Madrid, the capital of Spain and Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia's autonomous community, have shared their fair share of political tension over the years. 

Initially, the term was only used for the matches in the domestic Spanish championship, La Liga. Over the years, however, it's been globally recognised for every single meeting, such as in the UEFA Champions League or even domestic cup competitions like the Copa del Rey and Supercopa de España.

With both teams boasting big budgets and reputations that appeal to world-class performers across the planet, their respective ranks have been loaded with match-winners over the years.

Real Madrid threatened to opt out of the final

Real Madrid first released a statement that they might think of opting out of the final after the statement of the referee, Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea. Bengoetxea was brought to tears in a press conference after Real Madrid TV released a video highlighting the mistakes of the referee, which brought him insults and trolls from many sections of fans. 

Real Madrid wanted the Federation to change the referee and did not train or visit the pre-match rituals as well. 

However, the Federation stuck to their decision and did not change the officials of the match. Later, Real Madrid stated they want to go ahead with the final.

FC Barcelona had to sign Szczęsny to replace their captain, Ter Stegen. Szczęsny, who was already retired, did a wonderful job for the Catalan club as he lost only one game for them. 

But, with their main captain Ter Stegen returning to the squad, it would be interesting to see who will go under the sticks for Barcelona in a final like this. 

Robert Lewandowski, Alejandro Balde, Marc Bernal and Marc Casadó are injured and will not feature in the final.

Copa Del Rey Final: Real Madrid issues statement midst rumours of Copa del Rey boycott

The Los Blancos have issued a statement amid the rumours of boycotting the Copa del Rey final against FC Barcelona on Saturday. They are not happy with the statements of referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea.

Copa Del Rey Final: Real Madrid issues statement midst rumours of Copa del Rey boycott | sportzpoint.com

Real Madrid have issued an official statement amid the rumours of boycotting the Copa del Rey 2025 final against FC Barcelona on Saturday after the statements of referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea. 

Referee Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea was brought to tears in the press conference after Real Madrid released a video highlighting his mistakes from the past. 

Here is the statement made by Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea in the press conference. 

“When a child of yours goes to school and there are kids telling him that his father is a ‘thief’ and comes home crying, it’s totally messed up,” he told reporters.

“What I do is try to educate my son, to say that his father is honest, above all honest, who can make mistakes, like any sportsperson.

“This is really messed up... but the day I leave (the job), I want my son to be proud of what his father is, and what refereeing is, it has given us many values," this is what Bengoetxea said. 

Here is Real Madrid's video highlighting his mistakes -

After the statement of Bengoetxea, Real Madrid want the referee for the final to be changed. Although there are no signs of a change in the official stance of the Federation.

Here is the official statement from Real Madrid regarding the issue -

Real Madrid C. F. considers unacceptable the public statements made today by the referees appointed for the Copa del Rey Final to be held tomorrow 26 April 2025.

These statements, which have surprisingly placed in the spotlight videos made by a media outlet protected by freedom of expression, such as Realmadrid TV, made in a premeditated manner 24 hours ahead of the final against one of its participants, demonstrate, once again, these referees clear and manifest animosity and hostility towards Real Madrid.

Statements that are even more surprising, using a threatening tone, alluding to the unity of the referees, to announce supposed measures or actions that are far removed from the principles of fairness, objectivity and impartiality that should prevail just hours before a football event that will draw the attention of hundreds of millions of people around the world.

In view of the seriousness of events, Real Madrid hopes that those in charge of the R.F.E.F. and the refereeing profession will act accordingly, taking the corresponding measures in defence of the honour of the institutions they represent.

Real Madrid have cancelled their training and press conference as well. But, the Federation is hopeful of completing the final with no issue.
