Valverde’s Barça drew (0-0) against Real Madrid. Yes … but FC Barcelona, as an entity, emerged victorious from the other match that was also played off the pitch: prestige, recognition, professionalism and a job well done in all its areas.

The club’s responsiveness to the circumstances surrounding the classic was extraordinary. In preventive, logistical and human terms … which required a huge financial effort. FC Barcelona invested a lot of money to strengthen its social area (attention to members), mobility and extra security measures, paying out of pocket for the additional and special deployment of more Mossos d’Esquadra … which was substantial.
Backfire
The exemplary behavior of the partners and fans of FC Barcelona was proportional to the apocalyptic alarm launched mainly from Madrid. Depending on which television, station or newspaper you paid attention to, it could be said that the classic was going to be played in a war scene. There was such media noise that the intimidating effect seemed inevitable.
Yes, because, who would dare to go to the Camp Nou with the continuous rain of such alarmist information? There, both President Bartomeu and the club’s spokesman, Josep Vives, acted as a retaining wall, stating in advance that they would go to the game, that it would be played, that nothing would happen.
And nothing happened. Well, it did. The Barça partners, once again, gave a lesson in ‘seny’, civics and education. They understood that, out of prudence, they had to arrive earlier than usual at the Estadi, they naturally accepted the strict security controls … and at 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday, December 18, 2019, 93,426 souls were sitting in their respective seats.
That normality, that naturalness, has been the worst of the defeats of those who dreamed of a field invasion or a universal scandal so that Barça’s hair fell out and Catalonia would be portrayed. And just as those 93,000 entered, they also left the Camp Nou in a fluid way.
What happened outside the Estadi is not the responsibility of FC Barcelona. Neither pricks nor cuts. The classic ended in a draw on the field. Outside, it was won by Barça.

Unwanted Barca star Arda Turan, to Arsenal in January?

Negotiations are on the table.

Nelson Semedo house robbed ahead of Clasico
Semedo is concentrated with the rest of the Barcelona squad at the Hotel Sofía, from 12 noon, as F.C. Barcelona had to modify its usual routine, for security reasons for the Classic.
In this way, the defender joins the list of footballers who have suffered a robbery at home during the match or before the match, as in the present case of Semedo.
In mid-October, the Civil Guard dismantled part of a gang that operated in Madrid and robbed the homes of footballers such as Thomas, Casemiro, Álvaro Morata or Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane. The operation, with three searches in the Community of Madrid, and one in Toledo, ended with four detainees.

Thibaut Courtois Leo Messi
"Do I think about Messi before this Classic? No, not anymore. Maybe it was during my first season with Atlético de Madrid, especially when you play the Camp Nou for the first time. Not now", commented the Belgian goalkeeper, who also assured that "for me Messi is a player like any other. If I have nightmares about him? No, we study their movements as you can study a Celta de Vigo or Levante player. There is no difference in this regard".
A somewhat daring statement for a goalkeeper who knows what it is that Leo Messi can beat the goal he defends on more than one occasion. This Sunday, it may be a new opportunity to see if Messi really is like any other player.
Arda Turan played for Galatasaray from 2005 to 2011 before signing for Atlético de Madrid and that could be his fate as reported by ‘RAC 1’ on Thursday.
