Everybody remembers a certain Clásico against Real Madrid. Whether it be Johan Cruyff in his playing days, one of Messi's many brilliant performances, Real Madrid fans applauding Ronaldinho in the Bernabéu or the 6-2 win in Madrid, the Barça players are certainly no different.
We took the opportunity to ask Marcos Alonso, Andreas Christensen, Iñigo Martínez and Fermín López about their first memory of the fixture against Real Madrid and the replies were varied. Goals from Luis Suárez, family rivalries and much more were amongst the replies from the Barça quarter.
Clásico memories are inevitably mixed in with favourite goals and there are certainly plenty to choose from. Our quartet gave various replies ranging from famous Messi goals in injury time and in the Champions League at the Bernabéu, to a more family orientated answer from Marcos Alonso, remembering a goal from his father that won the blaugranes a Copa del Rey title.
