As the Real Madrid-Barcelona clash approaches, journalist Albert Lesan stirs controversy with a bold prediction for the upcoming Clásico.
With the highly anticipated match at the Bernabéu set for October 26, tensions are already high. Real Madrid fans vividly remember last year’s defeat and are eager for redemption against Hansi Flick’s squad. However, Barcelona’s recent form has been less than stellar, suffering defeats against a second-string PSG and a crushing 4-1 loss to Sevilla.
Controversial Claims Heat Up the Atmosphere
Amidst this backdrop, Albert Lesan, a confessed Barcelona supporter and journalist, has made a provocative statement that could add fuel to the fiery rivalry. “May God take five years off my life if Barça doesn’t beat Madrid by more than three goals,” Lesan declared on live television. This bold claim reflects not just confidence but a dismissive attitude towards Real Madrid’s capabilities.
The reaction from the football community has been mixed, with some admiring Lesan’s bravado while others criticize it as premature arrogance. This statement might put additional pressure on Barcelona players, who are already under scrutiny after their recent performances.
