The goodbye of Gerard Hammered of the football has occupied the covers of the skilled press and the main tendencies in the social networks, so much by his surprising retreat as by the legacy that has left the defender after finalising a successful career, the big part of her dressing the T-shirt of the FC Barcelona. In his moment, the central also lived closely the rivalry between Pep Guardiola and José Mourinho.

You brush them between both carried to the Classical to one of his moments of greater peak, to the point that each edition of the Classical seemed to begin grieve with the press conference with controversial words by part of each trainer. Around the middle of 2022, in words for 'SkyBet', Hammered remembered how this 'battle' between both finished being hurtful for the one of Santpedor, that abandoned the club to take a sabbatical year before initiating a new project with the Bayern of Munich.

For I Hammered, the crashes between both initiated with the first Classical between both, contested in the season 2010/11. In that then, the Portuguese came to win it everything with the Inter like the called to head the project merengue after the exit of Manuel Pellegrini: "I Remember that the first time that came to the Camp Nou with the Madrid, after winning the triplete with the Inter of Milan, went a crash of reality and lost 5-0".

However, and in spite of that in the majority of the clashes between both would be the Barça the one who would go out with the victory, the wear ocasionado by 'Mou' was doing effect: "it Is true that in the press conferences was each day presionando and perhaps for Guardiola was too during a true time. It did not have in seeing with the football. Then it shattered of a lot of ways as we saw the football. Even the relation with the players. At the head of the player and if it says that somebody hates you, create it to you".

Even the rivalry seemed to go further of the changing rooms and of the room of press, moving until the Spanish selection: "it Went to greet to Iker Boxes and he did not speak me. We had to do an exercise between the players of the Barcelona and the Madrid to reestablish bows, go back to be a good changing room and win the Euro of 2012. Guardiola Went by a lot of reasons, but am safe that one was Mourinho".
