Legend Casillas: We're Still Better, Even at This (Though It's Negative)

Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to comment on a story from the newspaper "El Mundo Deportivo." The article, titled "Three Guards of Honor Between Barça and Madrid, Two from the 'Cules' and One from 'Los Blancos'," delved into the various instances where Real Madrid and FC Barcelona have had to perform a guard of honor for their eternal rivals.

The Catalan publication highlighted that "in recent decades, after securing a title in previous rounds, there have been three guards of honor between Barça and Real Madrid – two from the 'Blaugrana' for the 'Whites' and one from the Madridistas for the Catalans."

"We continue to be better, even in this (even if it's negative)," Casillas shared with his over 9 million Instagram followers.

The 44-year-old Casillas's comment came shortly after Real Madrid defeated RCD Espanyol 2-0, delaying by at least one round the league title win, which appears destined for Barcelona. With an 11-point lead over Real Madrid and only 12 points left to play for, Barça could clinch La Liga if they win or draw against Madrid in El Clásico, scheduled for May 10th at Spotify Camp Nou.
