But how far will the conflict between the two Iberian football giants go? Or when the Negreira affair (the former Spanish referee whom FC Barcelona paid for advice) takes a politico-historical turn against a backdrop of support for Franco. Monday, in a long speech to defend himself, Joan Laporta, the president of FC Barcelona had assured that “this club, which feels aggrieved sportingly, Real Madrid, is a club which has historically been favored by arbitration decisions, and c is still the case today. A club considered as that of the regime. »
The word is out. The allusion to a club “of the regime” provoked the fury of the Madrid leaders, who to answer the accusations, posted a video of more than four minutes to answer the accusations of Laporta.
On a document of September 24, 1957, the merengue club writes: “The Camp Nou was inaugurated by the general minister of Franco, José Solis Ruiz”. The video continues with snaps showing Barça players giving fascist salutes and drives home the point: “Barça presented Franco with their badge, made him an honorary member in 1965, decorated him three times, and was saved from bankruptcy three times by his decisions. »
“Barça have won eight La Liga under Franco”
On the sporting level, Real Madrid indicates that “Barça has won La Liga eight times and the Cup nine times under Franco”. For its part, the White House club “took fifteen years to win a Championship. Real was dismantled during the civil war, players were murdered, detained or forced into exile, as the Santiago Bernabeu documentary recounts. »
The document also states that “in 1939, Real Madrid was in a critical situation. The head office disappears in a bombardment, the trophies are stolen. We only have five players left. The rest are exiled, or detained. »
The fall of the video is dedicated to a strike by the mythical Madrid president, Santiago Bernabeu, who says: “When I hear that Real Madrid was the club of the regime, it makes me want to defecate on the father of the one who declares that. The video ends with this question: “What is the diet club?” »
