Barça Legends dominated the Clásico against Real Madrid in El Salvador (2-0)

The Jorge 'El Mágico' González National Stadium in San Salvador hosted a new edition of the Clásico de leyendas between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. On this occasion, the Barça Legends took the win (2-0) in a match that saw Jorge 'El Mágico' González as the main star.

The legendary Salvadoran player, an emblem of Cádiz, wore the Blaugrana jersey for the first 8 minutes of the match, recalling his participation with Barça in a friendly tour during the 80s.

'Mágico' González indulged himself by completing a dribble against Pepe in his brief appearance on the field, showcasing his inexhaustible quality at 67 years old. In the end, the Catalans celebrated in El Salvador thanks to a brace from the Argentine Javier 'Conejo' Saviola

Saviola led Barça Legends to victory in El Salvador

The blaugrana team, managed by Albert Ferrer, opened the scoring in the 19th minute of a match that the Catalans dominated from the start. Marc Crosas set up the 'Rabbit' with a through ball and the Argentine masterfully finished one-on-one against Iker Casillas.

Madrid reacted after the 1-0 with a couple of attempts by Brazilian Julio Baptista, but Barça maintained possession control without suffering too much in defense. In the second half, Saviola extended the Barça lead in the 72nd minute, this time assisted by Nolito after a good run down the left.

Kiko Casilla had entered the 'Merengue' goal, but he could do nothing to prevent the second goal from the Argentine forward, who has played for both teams. Previously, Montoya, Giuly, Roger García, and Nolito himself had come close to increasing the Catalan lead.

Towards the end, Nuñez hit the post for Madrid, but Barça's victory was clear in El Salvador. The legends will face each other again on November 22 in Tokyo. The 2025 calendar will close with another Clásico in Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic) on December 13
