Will El Clasico prove decisive?
Zidane and Luis Enrique disagree
Posted Sunday, April 23, 2017 by Marca.com
Six LaLiga fixtures will follow but heading into the Clasico, Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane and Barcelona boss Luis Enrique face different realities, thus differing in their evaluation of the match's importance.
As Los Blancos survived in extra-time to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, Barcelona's comeback fell far short, and they'll both look to LaLiga as yet another test.
"Even if we beat Barcelona, Real Madrid won't have won LaLiga," Zidane warned in his pre-match press conference to those Madridistas getting ahead of themselves. "We still have seven matches left [one vs. Celta still in hand]."
On the other hand, it was a different story for Luis Enrique in his Clasico farewell.
"This time it will be a decisive match," he stated. "The game will either wrap LaLiga up or leave it wide open.
"It is a final for us."
