The El Clásico of the Ronaldo and Messi era was exciting on another level. Every El Clasico match was very competitive. And I remember we were eagerly waiting to see the El Clasico match. And all of us friends used to enjoy El Clasico matches together. So many times we have seen Ronaldo score a last-minute goal to save Madrid from a certain defeat or give victory. Messi has done this several times.
Yep. At that time, Ronaldo and Messi is competing to be the best player in the world. Both of them are the mainstay player of their clubs. Also, they are proven as the best players in the world. So, it makes the El Clasico was very interesting to watch because we want to see the two best players in the world against each another.
Two of the best players in the world played against each other. And that's why the Madrid vs Barcelona match reached another level. Both tried their best to win the team. Every El Clasico match was tense until the last minute. We had a wonderful time. Such exciting matches are rare these days.
But after Messi and Ronaldo left the club, El Clasico is not as exciting as it used to be. The matches seem quite slow to me now. Real Madrid also lost dominance in El Clasico. Barcelona have won 4 of their last 5 matches against Madrid. Ancelotti should try to get 3 points in the next match.
It is no longer interesting since Ronaldo left Real Madrid. With no longer rival between Ronaldo and Messi, El Clasico isn't interesting anymore.
It is true, Real Madrid lost the dominance in the El Clasico since Zidane left the club. In my opinion, Ancelotti still can't pass the level of Zidane in maintaining the mentality of the players. Real Madrid was a very though team because they have winning mentality when they were under Zidane's management.
Sure, Ancelotti needs to win the next El Clasico to maintain the position of Real Madrid in the top of La Liga standings.
You are right. Madrid's dominance against Barcelona has waned since Ronaldo left the team. And we saw Barcelona's dominance after Zidane left. I consider Barcelona as the favorite in the next El Clasico. Because it is their home match. In the last few years we have seen Barcelona play very well in home matches against Madrid. But without Lelandowski in the squad, it will be a bit difficult for Barcelona to win. This match is likely to be competitive.
