In addition to the first Spanish classic without Messi and Ramos, this weekend there will be other vibrant clashes in the ‘Old Continent’. Leo will have a tough test in France, while Cristiano against the 'Reds'.

Although it is not thus established, Sunday October 24 could be instituted as the 'Day of the European Classic' for this 2021, since destiny and calendar wanted that matches of the maximum rivalry of England, Spain, Italy, France and the Netherlands will be played on the same day. Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, far from Barcelona or Real Madrid, will experience their own special matches.

It will be a celebration in which the games Manchester United - Liverpool, Barcelona - Real Madrid, Inter Milan - Juventus and Olympique de Marseille - Paris Saint-Germain will have thousands of fans who will once again witness matches from the seats of Old Trafford, Camp Nou, Giuseppe Meazza and Velodrome.

Ajax - PSV Eindhoven, one of the two most important football rivalries in the Netherlands, will have its fifth chapter of this 2021 and the second with fans in the stands after the one held last August in Amsterdam. 

It should be noted that many of these games have not been played with the public for at least two years, due to the pandemic caused to Covid 19, and today the stadiums have 100% capacity, so a large volume of public in the stadiums.
