Former Real Madrid player Mesut Ezil recalled the fierce confrontations with Catalan side Barcelona.
Mesut Ezil, Getty Images- "I think I saw the best era of El Clasico, Real Madrid vs Barcelona in all its glory, the Champions League semifinals. Those were the matches that had everything - Mourinho vs. Guardiola, Ronaldo vs. Messi.
Nowadays, the El Clasico has lost its intensity and excitement, but back then, a victory over Barcelona was like an orgasm. The 0-5 defeat in 2010 is one of my biggest nightmares on the football field. I have played many matches, participated in many derbies, but I think there will never be anything like the El Clasico," said Mesut Ezil.
