It`s Messi vs Ronaldo, it`s Catalonia vs Castilla. It`s the nation against the state, freedom fighters vs Franco`s fascists. It`s majestic goals & mesmerising skills, red cards & bench brawls. It`s the best two teams on the planet going face to face & toe to toe. It`s more than a game. It`s a war. It`s Barcelona vs Real Madrid... Only, it`s not that simple. From the wounds left by the civil war to the teams` recent global domination, historian & expert on Spanish football, Sid Lowe lifts the lid on sport`s greatest rivalry. Lowe has spoken to the biggest names & the forgotten heroes who defined their clubs.
