Real Madrid - Barcelona, a Classic in the Cup: Times They Have Faced Each Other and Results

Barcelona and Real Madrid Will Compete in La Cartuja for the Eighth Copa del Rey Final. The balance is favorable for Madridists by four to three, and tonight Ancelotti's team will try to secure the fifth victory. To do so, they will have to overcome a team they haven't been able to beat this season.

The First Final Was in the 1935/1936 Season and Ended with a Merengue Victory by Two Goals to One. To see another final between both teams, it took more than 30 years. Specifically, it was in the 1967/1968 campaign, and on that occasion, the triumph was for the Culers by one goal to zero.

The Biggest Win in a Copa Final Between These Two Teams Was Achieved by Real Madrid. In the 73/74 season, the Whites won 4-0 against their rival. Several Seasons Later, Specifically in 82/83, It Was the blaugranas Who Managed to Take the Win with a 2-1 Result.

The Last Final of the 20th Century Between Madridists and Culers Came in 1990 and Repeated the Same Result, Once Again with a Barcelona Victory. However, The Last Two Have Been for Real Madrid. Both in 2011 and 2014, the Merengue team emerged victorious.

More Than a Copa del Rey

High-Ranking Officials of Real Madrid Consider That What's at Stake Is More Than a Copa Final. Ancelotti has managed to lift his squad's spirits after the defeat in the Champions League against Arsenal.

At this moment, the locker room believes they can have a great year. There are reasons to think the season is still on track to be good. La Liga is open, and the Copa is decided tonight, so both titles depend on defeating Barça.

Ending with a double would be fabulous and would close a campaign, which has been difficult, in a remarkable way. Despite the poor results against Barça this season, The Players Believe They Can Bring Joy to Their Fans. Hopefully, It Will Be So.
