So What will the States Now Make of El Clasico?

Real Madrid vs Barcelona

Get ready for El Clasico in Miami!

Yes, you did read that correctly.

For what in recent years has been considered the mother of all football games, the ultimate sports betting spectacle, one of the greatest rivalries in sport is, fittingly, about to arrive in what is known as the Hard Rock Stadium.

Who’d have thought you could bet online on such a clash in the International Champions Cup?

And this isn’t just about 90 minutes, tournament organisers have made this into a three-day event.

There’s everything in Miami from a martial arts duel between a Catalan challenger and a Madrid fighter; an El Clasico VIP party, an El Clasico launch party; a fan festival with a cooking demonstration and player appearances; a Flamenco showcase; a freestyle soccer (for that’s what they call it in America!) showdown and live music galore in the run-up to the big event.

Of course, most of the stars will be either busy training or resting while these events are going on.

Organisers have paid big bucks to get these two giants of the game sharing a pitch and nothing will stop that: not the Madrid circus, nor the Neymar soap opera.

Being brutally honest, the result won’t greatly matter – and that’s not been said about an El Clasico clash for many a year.

The edge won’t quite be there, either on the pitch or on the terraces.

Yet some traditions remain and Barca fans will have their colourful mosaic out encouraging the players in the arena, this time with a US theme in reference of their hosts.

All in all, the first clash between new boss Ernesto Valverde, fresh from Athletic Bilbao, and Zinedine Zidane should be a relaxing affair, a chance for the likes of Theo Hernandez, Vinicius and Gerard Deulofeu to ease into what is the one that matters for both clubs.

My advice is to make the most of the party atmosphere and enjoy the occasion.

It won’t be like that for any other El Clasico matches this season!
