Transcript

Well, they're playing that Barcelona favorite song again as the players come out for Eláico. And that's quite a brilliant display, isn't it? Wow. Fora Basa. Marcus Rashford getting a start today. He's been on the pitch most of the time just recently. [cheering] Joan Laorto, the president who's weaved his way through all the financial problems that the club have had. Commiterations to Hansy Flick who lost his father yesterday but has decided to be with the team today. Our thoughts go to him and his family. [cheering] Fever pitch here at the camp. No, >> here's the Barcelona lineup. Two changes with Robert Leandowski left out and 20 goal. Farane Torres getting the n up front and Marcus Rashford getting his first half of five weeks in place of Rooney Bari. Three players, Rashford, the keeper, Jawan Garcia, and Jo Carel aiming to win their first La Liga titles today. Rafinia, by the way, is back fit again and on the bench. [cheering] >> Referee is Spain's World Cup representative, Hernandez Hernandez, >> who gets his sixth classicalico here. The V team waiting to play their part. We hope it's not too big a part. >> Hopefully not. Tibbo Corttois is back for Real Madrid. [music] Well, that was a moment of silence for Hans Flick, the father of the Barcelona coach, Hansy Flick. A very difficult day for him, but he's decided the right place to be is with his team. Black armbands for the Barcelona players and the Real Madrid players as well. [cheering] >> [cheering] >> No Fede Valde that much publicized head injury keeps him out. Shueraini the other player involved in the bust up is selected. Mbappé still not fit for a recall. Gonzalo Garcia up front for Real Madrid today. Fan Garcia at left back in place of the injured Mendy. Not many options for Aello in that kind of situation when we are going to start the game but definitely he managed to to bring a list so many on the midfield. The younger just have to wait for the second half. Kamovinga also selected today for Real Madrid. He had a good game in the first classical of the season at the banjo when Real Madrid produced a really good performance to beat Barcelona 2-1. But that's their only win in the last six classical. [cheering] Rashford as we thought starting on the right hand side. Not somewhere he's often played in truth. >> No, not really. But he done it in the in the last couple of games in second half getting minutes good crosses and let's not forget is so quick so far. So in counter attack is is a big threat. >> Here's Gabby. It's good to see him back fit again and getting a run of starts. He hopes maybe he can squeeze into Spain's World Cup selection. We'll see about that. Torres getting the nod ahead of Leandowski today. [cheering] >> And probably because of that expect Real Madrid to bring the line out a bit higher. So the the players into the midfield, the ones are getting the the guts in between and the lines of defense. Danny Almo, Pedri, they're going to receive turn and try to find Ferraran Torres in those runs behind the back of of the defense. >> Courto back in goal is big news for Real Madrid. He's missed the last eight games with a hamstring injury. is Eric Garcia feeding the ball inside now. Then Brahim Diaz looking to end a long La La Liga goal drought today. Fedicious involved for the first time. He's really in form and gets a shot away. Didn't catch it though. >> That's what Real Madrid is going to look for. Uh mean ball in the middle of the park. Great transition uh with Ibrahim that drive the ball and and try to bring the ball as quick as possible to of course one of the biggest threat for for Barcelona tonight. There is going to be Venicious Jr. that he was wide open. We saw that they started with two up front. Venicious next to Gonzalo but as soon as he can. Venicio is going to be in that left side to try to face Eric Garcia and Paul Garcia as soon as possible. >> Good work Canelo linking up with Fermine over on that far side. Barcelona with a 100% home record won all 17 league games this season. Rashford wearing that number 14 shirt made famous at Barcelona by the great Johan K. There's Alaro Armaloa who tried very hard to put up a kind of siege mentality yesterday said we want to put a line under everything that's happened. It was a stout defense but it's going to take what more than one press conference I think for people to forget everything that's gone on rail this week. >> Is Brahim Diaz again. It's a bright enough start by Real Madrid. Good defending there by the defense of Barcelona. No giving. No, the movements of Ibrahim there is very quick. He's inside the box so you cannot get involved. One stop. Latest challenge by Kabinga. Referee waved play on. No advantage really seemed to acrewue. >> Jared Martin has had a big run in central defense. Almost made the place his own. Fine has got him behind here and can go straight for goal. That's exactly what he means to do. Rashford. Can he get there? No, he can't. Fran Garcia did just enough. Fantastic run. The movement of Filo Havaluka can pass is great. He knows that they are coming from it. But the the cross I think that didn't buy it totally Rashford from the second half. He should have make the run faster and and diagonal to try to get that ball for me was maybe should have been a little bit more selfish but great run, great attacking play by Barcelona. Canelo who's won titles everywhere he's gone in his career it seems and now he's looking to pick up one in Spain as well. Kubasi Carrick Garcia who seems to get picked week in week out. He's a favorite of Hansy Flick. >> Doesn't matter where he's always got a place. We've saw him play as a holding midfielder, right back, center back sometimes arriving to the position number nine. So yeah, Hans Fleeks loved him. [cheering] It's Brain Diaz who's been lively early on here. Bellingham taken out of it. That'll be a free kick. Of course, Jude Bellingham has a history of doing very, very well in this fixture. Remember his debut season in Spain when he got winners in both the game. Rashford using the afterburners there. covering good by Ra Asencio who's coming in at the last minute into the team and how picked up a knock I think in the warm up. >> Yeah, fantastic run once again. Asen is a very quick and and strong defender. He managed to to arrive on time. Great diagonal once again. He was as well putting pressure on on the play before by Fem Lopez. Joel Talon he started very well at Real Madrid but suddenly couple of mistakes Champs League in La Liga he was sent to to the bench and he has had a lot of problems to recover the position there in the center of the defense Eric Garcia to Danny Almo who's caught by Shuani 10 wins on the bounce in La Liga for Barcelona and counting. Here's Almo. Good turn by Torres who skips through, goes down on the edge of the box. Referee decides it was just outside. >> Very close. I think it's a it's a good call. He was very close to to the play. Hernandez Hernandez. Fantastic move for Peran Torres that was getting into the box, but as you can see, he's just right outside. It's a good ball, but so easy. He has turned around. I think the real Mad putting too much pressure on the players in those positions. You allow them to turn around, of course, you're going to be in trouble. Rashford hovering over the ball with Danny Almo. Some reports say Barcelona have cooled on signing Marcus Rashford during the summer. We shall see whether that makes financial sense for them. The fee would be $ 35 million. He can advance his case in games like this, can't he? RASHFORD FOR BARCELONA. OH, [screaming] THAT IS SENSATIONAL. WELL, [cheering] just brilliant. And Barcelona are on their way. He took his time. He wait. He took a breath. And again, he wait for the referee. He give time and he took a fantastic free kick. Beautiful. We thought that he was going to try his luck over the wall to the near post and I think that could think did so think he made that a small step to the left as you can see smaller step to the left and then it's a great great shot fantastic power top corner no chance for any keeper and less with that small step is a great jump for that doesn't arrive to that one n for Barcelona Even a goalkeeper as good as Corttois couldn't smell that one. It's a 14th goal of the season for Marcus Rashford. He's getting his first start in five weeks here today. That's what I can do. I think that's what he's saying to the executive of Barcelona as they mull over whether to make his deal permanent. scoring these kind of goals. I think the Barcelona fans, we want them here. Not easy. They haven't scored that many goals from those kind of positions. Let's don't forget Lun Messi was in charge of that. That was long time ago and Rafos has brought this this kind of situation a few times for Barcelona. So important also set pieces. >> Barcelona scoring for the 55th game running that goes all the way back to December of 2024. It's the second longest run in La Liga history. Only Barcelona themselves in 201213 can top that. Could be more to come. Can Real Madrid come up with an answer? Ibrahim Diaz again leading the charge. Here's Venicius. [cheering] They'll have to watch Venicious. You know, two goals last week. He's got eight in his last eight starts. >> Always with an eye on him. That's why I think it's Eric Garcia right there. Jules Kundai normally goes forward forward a bit more. Eric just trying to be on him or at least not allow him to to get too much space. But as you can see that every single time that Real Madrid got the ball on contact, they're going to look for that left side. Trent Alexander Arnold in charge of all the set pieces [cheering] with his beautiful deliveries with that right foot and that's flicked on pretty dangerously like Kubasi got the last hit on that be another corner to he doesn't have too much speed but definitely he's able to play as I suppose I complaining because he took off the Referee say good old [cheering] referee just reminding everyone he's keeping a look on all the pushing and shoving. That'll be another corner. Cubasi got his head to that too. >> What an exciting young player he is. Only 19. He he already seems to have been around for an eternity, doesn't he? >> Yeah, we don't talk enough about him. And of course, Amy got a lot of light, but um Kasi should be right there. John Talon at the back who does everything. Third corner in a row for Trent Alexander Arnold to swing in there. Shuani. It would be a score story, wouldn't it? If he scored today right there, you have to have a a look at it. This is the beautiful free kick from Rashford. Fantastic pace top corner and celebration of course they can they can feel that they are closer. That's what you call a glorious goal, I think, Luis. >> Out of perfection. >> Of course, he'd have grown up watching David Beckham hitting free kicks like that at Manchester United. Yeah, it's Cancel. Torres is on the charge, but Corttois quickly out and once again Ferraran Torres trying to get on the back of Asenio, back of Brodiga. There's plenty of space there if they can manage to put a good pass with good pace. Fan is going to be one-on-one with at least one or twice during the game. Rashford tries to thread that one through Kamovinga to help it on. Diaz keeping on picking up that ball in front of the defense. Tren Alexander towards Gonzalo Garcia. coming to the team with no Mbappe that's gone out of play. Gives me a chance to remind you about the FA Cup final next Saturday. Chelsea against Manchester City. Join us Saturday 9:55 a.m. Eastern on ESPN 2 and ESPN Plus. John Champion and Craig Burley will be on the call for you. Real Madrid is trying to keep the ball in the possession but they are too wide a little bit too much space between the players on the buildup difficult to bring the ball to the important players but Diaz to Pellean that hasn't been involved much rail have just slipped up too often this season after they'd won their first classic of the season. They were five points clear at the top. They're now 11 points behind. >> Talking about your Bellingham receiver that as soon as he gets two players of Barcelona when on him that's the pressure the Hansifi been implemented for these two years. That's how you don't allow Dubelling to put a good pass and you can make the high line. The problem with that high line is that if the ball is not under pressure, you're going to be in trouble. But today Barcelona is doing a good job there. Here's J Stude Bellingham. Now Rudiga is reportedly in another little confrontation with Alvaro Careras who's been left out of the side recently and is again today. Bellingham gave that away to Rashford who we know is in the mood here. Trent Alexander Arnold to Gonzalo Garcia but Kubasi dread that pressure on the ball from Venicious. Free kicks as the referee though was a good pressure saw the opportunity. Canelo was looking to the other side and I have to say I don't know if he is too much there for a for a foul but there is Kubasi once again you were talking about him it's the third time that he was clearing the ball that one head with Venus once again now in the last play not giving anything to chance >> Martin Hedri with the little cushioned layoff Rashford got there before Frank Garcia took a knock and stays down for a moment. [cheering] Play answers the referee. Pedri wanted the free kick. Pedri always seems to be gliding around the pitch to me. Such a stylish midfield player. >> I run out of adjectives for for Pedri. I don't know what to say what else to say about him. So much stalin there. >> DANIEL WITH THE LAYOFF. TORRES 2-0. WELL, BRILLIANT FROM BARCELONA. THAT'S WHY THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY TO THE SPANISH TITLE. >> Too much comp players here from the Real Madrid players. So easy for Barcelona to break through. Great combination of course for for the Flana players. They've been waiting for that opportunity. Ferraran the second time making the run. Fantastic lay off for Daniel Feran Torres that doesn't take cool finish pulling the ball really far away from Corttois and of course the body language of Real Mad players said everything from the first minute you can see that his reaction let's have a look once again about this fantastic play ball wide open as you can see fantastic runfall from Dannyo play back and look at that contact it's just fantastic no one running behind Ferrane Torres. He's got all the time in the wall to decide where to put the ball. Fantastic goal, but again so easy for the Barcelona players. No running back, no tracking back into the situation that Real Mad is is feeling at the moment. >> Quite got a fingertip to it, but not enough to keep it out. 21 for the season for Ferane Torres and five in his last six games. great form. He had a a a small low a couple months ago and doing a good job and he found himself once again and when he started scoring goal when he feels confident he's a top top striker. >> There's some worried faces on that Real Madrid bench and among the players they're just wondering where this might be leading at the end of this nightmare week. Back to Kamovinga. Of course, they're really going to miss Fede Vverde in a fixture like this as well. But he just isn't fit to play after that head injury and the altercation with Shua of which there are various reports of exactly how it happened. >> Yeah, exactly. Great pass right here. Ano and Garcia was really well aware. Yes, he's a very important player. Valber is a one of the leaders of the team. Boxto-box player. It doesn't matter if you put it as a right back, a midfielder will give you something. Fantastic strike. One of the top scorers of the team. >> By contrast, Barcelona have been well a picture of unity really. young young team, nine Spanish players. They are friends. I think he's the the team from Eláico in the 21st century has had the most Spanish player on the field. That's really remarkable for Hansen Fle to found himself in this kind of situation with this amazing generation of players that not only are teammates but also friends that's very difficult to to find. But the Barcelona fans have already started the fiesta, haven't they? >> Some of them on their feet, singing, celebrating 2-0 up early on. What can Real Madrid do about this? You see so much trouble for Real Madrid to build up, to bring the ball to the middle of the park. There's no much mobility. A lot of players just walking around trying to to wait for the ball to arrive and like this very difficult because Barcelona is very active putting pressure every single time that Real Madrid makes a move. Could be an opportunity here FOR REAL MADRID to get themselves back involved and they couldn't do it. Gonzalo Garcia. It all opened up for him. There was the moment. It wasn't taken. It >> was a great ball. Maybe just too low. It's difficult to put it down. And Gonzalo does a fantastic job going in front of Gerard Martin, but the contact, the last contact, that last bounce hasn't allowed him to to make a good impact on the ball and he goes on the side. >> Eric Garcia looking to drop that ball in behind. And it was a good ball as well. Out towards Fermine. >> I think one thing's for certain, Luis. There's going to have to be major surgery at Real Madrid in the summer. >> Yeah, something needs to to have careful here. Once again, great ball. >> Beaten the high line with Bellingham this time and Venicious was there. But what a challenge by Eric Garcia to deny him. But that's twice in a minute. Real Madrid have exposed this Barcelona high line. >> Yeah, they were complaining about an offside that that is no offides at all. Great run from J Bellinga and Eric Garcia. The last was arriving lying there for a a great save. It was Bish waiting for for that ball. Will get the first one for Real Madrid. Yes, twice that they did those runs into the back is the only way. But again, we were talking about the pressure on the ball. Barcelona is missing that again. It's another Trent corner. Well, managed to keep it alive. Camping was caught there by Daniel. Will be a free kick. It's not exactly a watch party if there's nothing to watch. Good thing Walmart Express delivery comes in as fast as an hour. >> What an hour? Who knew? >> Sorry. >> I think I got this. >> Not on my watch. Tit Alexander Arnold in charge of the free kick for Real Madrid. Just one goal could change the mood music around here for Real and these fixtures in recent times have been full of goals. Barcelona have won 4-0, 5-2, 4-3, 3-2 twice, and lost 2-1 earlier this season. Going into this one, there'd been a little matter of 31 goals over the last two seasons between these two clubs. extraordinary really >> fantastic load of goals and this Barcelona he's been fantastic in the la in the last third but also Real Madrid when they play against this Barcelona with a high line with the speed of Kilan Mbappe within his junior they did a a good job and also Jub Bellingham is been always important this kind of clashes Pedri Always options, always movement ahead. Rashford, I think he meant that as well. He spotted Cotto just drifted away from his near post there. >> Well, we'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he meant it. >> I think he was trying to cross, but he was deflected. H Let's have a look. He was trying to make a a No. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you're totally right. Yeah, but I don't know because that shot with the >> inside of Yeah, he might he might have tried but um >> you know better than me. That's >> I was think because he always put the the crosses with so much space. So I thought he was trying to do that a hard cross but yeah maybe maybe was trying. >> Trent Alex did well there. Rode through a few challenges and looked pretty furious but he didn't get the free kick he has now. He looks pumped up for this. Brahim Diaz looks pumped up for this. >> And I'll stop there for the moment. >> Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
