Real Madrid vs Barcelona: Sergio Ramos' curious statement for Lionel Messi

They're rivals, they play very hard every time they face each other. They claim, they fight, they insult each other. But at the end of the day, they know and recognize the potential of the other. The Real Madrid player, Sergio Ramos, will premiere his series in the next few days that will be called "The Legend of Sergio Ramos" and the captain of Merengue refers, in one of the chapters, to the crosses with Barcelona and the preponderance of Lionel Messi on the team.

The defender, winner of four Champions League with the Madrid club, reflected on the importance of the best player in the world in the titles achieved by the Blaugrana: “We have suffered it during this time that, perhaps, if Barcelona had not had it and not We would have had it in front of us, I think we would have won more titles”.

In correlation, the Spaniard declared that “there was a time when we measured ourselves against the best Barcelona in history. We had a great coach like Mourinho but it was hard for us to face them” and he highlighted the tensions created between the Spanish players themselves in each classic.

“We didn't win much and also because there was a tension generated by them or by us. I think we all made mistakes there, and thank goodness it took us at a more mature age. We solve it and fight for a single team”, sentenced the experienced defender.
