The champions of Spains La Liga for the year 2007- 2008 was Real Madrid, and their former player , the blond German midfielder was their manager and they won the title. But unfortunately the 2008-2009 season did not go well for the Spanish giants, and to make things verse their Dutch striker and faamous goal poacher Ruud Van Nistelrooy was outfor the entire season , and there were injuries to their defenceand midfieldersas well. They even had to spend extra to get Rafael Vander Vart f rom from the German club Hamburg.
But unforunately their arch rival Barcelona got a good start and kept on winning their matches, and Real lost tttheir match in the Copa Del Rey match to a team from the second division, this was the first real sign that Real Madrid were not going to win the La Liga title this year , their loss to Seville increased the preasure on Schuster.
Then the EL CLASSICO came near and Schuster made a statement that Barcelona would be hard to beat when they clash at the Caamp Nou, As Barcelona are marching away with a total of 13, thirteen straight wins. This angered both the Royal Real Madrid fans as well as the Real board .
For a Real Madrid manager to suport Barcelona , and to say before the El Classico that Barcelona would definaterly win the title was to much . And this was the main reason why Bernd Schuster was sacked.as Real Madrids manager, it was more done in anger and disgust at his words.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are sworn enemies on the pitch as well as out. It is so bad that if you are Real Madrid fan and want to watch Real play at The Nou Camp in Barcelona , and the cabbie finds you are a real fan he will refuse to take you there, and , the Real cabbie will do the same.
So you can imagine what goes on in the pitch.Let us go back over the years shall we.
The great footballer Alberto Stefano who won Eeight La Liga titles, five champion league cups and also two time winner of tthe Ballon Odr.. First agreed to sign and play for Barcelona but he then changed his mind. Barcelona have always claimed that the late dictator genral Franco had a big hand in the change of mind.

5) The Portugese winger Luis Figo, promised Barcelona that he would not move to Real Madrid , but the Real Madrid president Mr Peres did an under the table deel with Figo, and Figo went to Real Madrid for 37.5 million pounds. He had broken the Barcelonas hearts as well as a new record.
But Luis Figo got a terrible welcome at the Nou camp, when Figo took a corner kick, whisky, bottles, mobiles and even a pigshead were thrown by the angry fans. Never ever was Figo allowed to take a corner kick or a throw in at the Nou Camp, by the advice of the Real coach.
6 ) In the 2002 champion semifinal the two Spanish giants clashed Barcelona and Real Madrid , over 600 million people watched this game in which Real Madrid knocked out Barcelona with a 2-0 score . With goals from Zinedine Zidane a beatiful chip and the second goal by Steve McManaman..
In the year 2003 David Becham joined Real Madrid for a fee of25 million pounds. This was after Alex Fergusons tantarum, because Arsenal beat Manchester United, Ferguson kicked the boot on Beckham face, and David had to have a few stitches.
And Barcelona got the Brazilian Ronoldhino . On19/11/2005 thumped and soundly beat Real Madrid with a score of 3-0.. The first goal was scored by Samuel Etoo, and the second two goals were solo goals scored by Ronoldhino. At the end of the gameBarcelona fans saw something unthinkable Real Madrid fans gave Ronoldhino a standing ovation to the worlds best footballer.
In 2007 Frank Rijkaard was sacked , Ronoldhino joined A.C.Milan.
