Barcelona defender names Real Madrid star as the player who has ‘given him the most trouble’ Real Madrid will play for prestige as they take on Barcelona in the highly anticipated El Clasico this weekend. Barcelona can seal the league title with a win, but Real Madrid will be keen on avoiding that scenario and elongating their wait. Heading into this game, Barcelona defender Jules Kounde talked about Barcelona’s mentality and facing Real Madrid, among other things.

What Kounde said ahead of El Clasico Speaking to club media (h/t AS ), Kounde wasted no time in setting the tone for what the dressing room is feeling ahead of Sunday. “The team is fired up. We’re eager to win La Liga.

A draw would be enough, but we want to beat Real Madrid ,” he said. Asked about the key to stopping Real Madrid’s attack, he made clear it is a collective responsibility rather than one that falls on the defence alone. “The key to winning the Clasico will be applying good pressure from the whole team, not just the defence.

We have to be very focused ,” he added. The question everyone wanted answered was which striker had caused him the most problems across his career. He did not shy away from naming Vinicius.
