All the curiosities left by the Bernabéu Classic

A Classic is always much more than 90 minutes in which 22 players touch and touch the ball. It is wrapped in the mystique of the great nights, with unexpected heroes, hobbies overturned and a compendium of statistical data that pass to the history books as they do not make records of any other party. Last night at Santiago Bernabéu was not going to be less. Vinicius and Mariano turned the initial tables into three points for Real Madrid and, in addition, they turned around a historical fact. With both goals scored and without receiving, the whites add 6,152 points in the championship, just one more than those accumulated in the historic Barcelona.

In addition, they also chose the scale of the Classics. Before the dispute of the duel, Real Madrid and Barcelona added 72 victories per head in their direct confrontations in LaLiga Santander. Yesterday, Zidane's were ahead (73-72 with 35 draws) and tied for goals (288), always according to the data exposed by Mr. Chip in his Twitter account. Although only two are insured per season, the two colossi of Spanish football have also faced countless times in Europe and in tournaments. Until the appointment of the Bernabéu, Barça dominated you to you, but now it is completely matched: 96-96 (52 draws).

Beyond the choral performance of Madrid, it was also a day of proper names. Among all of them, the two scorers stand out: Vinicius and Mariano. The Brazilian international, in fact, is already 21st century history. Mr. Chip points out that, at 19 and 233 days old, he has become the youngest scorer in a Classic, since Raúl and Roger celebrated on September 30, 1996, with 18 years! 'Vini' will not have broken precocity records, but his stellar performance, with an even goal, suggests that he will be one of the great protagonists in the great battle of Spanish football in the next five years.

He may not have that Mariano status, since his opportunity surprised seeing what he saw in the season. The Hispanic-Dominican won the game to Luka Jovic, off the list, and left in the final minutes, almost more as a sign of winning seconds to the stopwatch. Nevertheless, his power charger was overflowing and he defined in a hand in hand with Ter Stegen 52 seconds after stepping on the grass. A fact that will not be forgotten, being the fastest substitute mark in the history of the Classics beating Gonzalo Higuain. For lovers of statistics, it was also the first player born in Barcelona to mark Barça for 71 years when Macala did.

Zidane and its centennial pupils

On a round day, the figures were too. Zinedine Zidane (198) yesterday became the third coach with more games in the history of Madrid, beating Beenhakker (197). Still ahead of Forest (246) and Munoz (605). In addition, it also equaled Beenhakker as the second coach with the most league wins (89). His pupils, on the other hand, are not yet part of the story, although they reached round records: Casemiro reached one hundred wins in the league; Lucas Vázquez, 200 games; Isco, at 300; Benzema, 500 …

From Castile to Glory

30 years have passed since two Castilla players had so much prominence in a Real Madrid – Barcelona. While it is true that Mariano had to leave to be able to return and Vinicius is a signing that has passed through the subsidiary as a training method, not so long ago they dressed short in Alfredo Di Stéfano. Butragueño and Santi Aragón They marked December 12, 1990 and, until yesterday, no other had succeeded. Speaking of quarry, Ansu Fati, with 17 years in his identity card, became the youngest footballer to play an official match with the Blaugrana shirt at Santiago Bernabéu.

The goal crisis resolved

A total of 425 minutes passed between the goal of Lucas Vázquez in the Copa del Rey 2018-19 and the goal of Vinicius after rebounding in Gerard Piqué. In all that time, Madrid had failed to punch the Barça goal, nor of course win. Even more unmarked in his own stadium, where he had not achieved since August 2017 in the Spanish Super Cup. An absolute relief, which is also worth to overcome the eternal rival at the top of the classification. The problem was spread and Now it is Messi who suffers. He has played five Classics without Cristiano Ronaldo and has not achieved a single goal.

Madrid, impeccable before the colossi

They are two wins and two draws, but Real Madrid has proven to be able to close its goal when you see the faces with the biggest. As Pedro Martín points out, the 2019-20 has been the only season in the history of the white club in which he has not conceded a single goal in the four games in which he has measured Barcelona Y Atlético de Madrid in the national league league. Of course, the 0-0 of the Camp Nou and the Wanda Metropolitano were not conceived as positive results, as if they were the four wins of the 2007-08 or the three and a draw of the 2012-13.
