The Argentine international has downplayed notions claiming that Barca will look for last season’s revenge when they take on Real Madrid at the Camp Nou.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 has expressed that his side are only looking for a good result against Real Madrid in this season’s first La Liga El Clasico.
According to the attacker, vengeance is not on the minds of La Blaugrana players as they take on the current champions of the Spanish Primera Division.
Considering the fact that Barca were humbled by Madrid in the same fixture last season, critics have suggested that Tito Vilanova’s men will be looking for redemption on Sunday.
Last season Los Vikingos defeated La Azulgrana with a final score of 2-1. The victory was seen as the final blow for La Blaugrana as they surrendered the Liga BBVA title to Jose Mourinho’s men.
Nevertheless, Messi has stressed that Barcelona are not interested in playing for something which is in the past.
"The team has no desire for revenge, we just want to win," said the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841 skipper after his side were victorious over Benfica in midweek.
El Clasico is believed to be among the most exciting fixtures in the world of football, as Barcelona and Real Madrid rivalry is amongst the greatest of all time and this Sunday’s encounter is bound to be entertaining.
Jose Mouriho’s men will be desperately looking for a victory as they have already dropped 8 points in the Spanish La Liga’s league standings. Hence, they will try their best to repeat last season’s feat by beating the Catalans at home.
Barca on the other hand have maintained a perfect record in the league so far, hence Sunday’s match provides them with the perfect chance to extend their lead at the top of the table.
