For the first time in eleven years, neither Leo Messi neither Cristiano Ronaldo will be in the Classical. They began to coincide in the Classical in 2009, and since have achieved to turn into the two better players of the history of his teams

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Leo Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will not be able to participate this Sunday in the FC Barcelona-Real Madrid of LaLiga Santander 2018-19 in the Camp Nou, the first by injury and the second when being playing from this past summer for the Juventus of Turín. FC Barcelona and Real Madrid will lose of this way to his two big offensive references of the last seasons, when having been at least one of the two players on the lawn of the Classical in the last 11 years, that says prompt.

The Argentinian star of the FC Barcelona is the footballer that more goals has marked in the history of the Classical (26), whereas Cristiano Ronaldo equalised to Alfredo Gave Stéfano at most goleador merengue of the Classical with 18 so many, in the Classical contested in the Camp Nou during the past month of May (2-2), the last in that the '10' and the '7' coincided.

38 they are the Classical that has played Leo Messi by 30 of Cristiano Ronaldo. The balance of the Barcelona is ostensiblemente better, with 17 victories, 9 ties and 12 defeats, whereas Cristiano Ronaldo has lived 8 triumphs, 7 ties and 14 defeats during the Classical that has contested in front of the Barça.

The proof that the game of the FC Barcelona is used to to turn around Leo Messi see it in the chapter of assistances, since the '10' has been able to deliver 13 passes of goal to his mates, in addition to the 26 goals annotated in these 38 Classical, whereas Cristiano Ronaldo so only has been able to give an assistance of goal, what says a lot on his limitations futbolísticas.

One is an absolute playmaker, and the another a goleador. His drops, in any case, affect practically by the same to FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, although to day of today the Barça has better staff of centre of the field upwards to relieve to the Argentinian, in contrast with the difficulties with which is finding the Real Madrid to the hour to see goal this season 2018-19.

Messi and Cristiano, the antagonists of Barça and Madrid

The Real Madrid is the third team to the that Lionel Messi has marked more goals in all the competitions (26), after the Seville (31) and the Athletic of Madrid (27). On the other hand, the Barcelona is the fifth team to the that more goals has annotated Cristiano Ronaldo in all the competitions (18), after the Seville (27), Athletic of Madrid (21), Getafe (21) and Celtic (20).

His respective absences, therefore, could leave a lower marker of the usual in the Classical Barça-Madrid. Although, when the balloon throw to film, the film probably was totally distinct to the one of the predictions. Others 'cracks' will take the relief to boost the show in the Camp Nou, that will go back to be served this Sunday. Messi and Cristiano form part of the history of the Classical. But also there is life without them.
