India’s passion for La Liga rivals Spain's: PM Modi on Barca’s win over Madrid
The buzz surrounding Barcelona’s recent 4-0 routing of Real Madrid was at an all-time high as the Catalonians secured a historic victory on Saturday.
Vadodara: The buzz surrounding Barcelona’s recent 4-0 routing of Real Madrid was at an all-time high as the Catalonians secured a historic victory on Saturday. In a speech after the roadshow, where Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez was present, PM Narendra Modi went on to claim the intensity of the rivalry between the fan bases of both teams in India is equivalent to how it is in Spain.
"Spanish football is liked a lot in India. Yesterday, the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona, and the discussions were held in India, too. Barcelona's brilliant win was a subject of discussion here as well. I can also tell you that there was as much banter between the fans of the two clubs in India, as it would've been in Spain," PM Modi said during his speech at the event.
PM Modi alongside Spanish PM Pedro Sanchez inaugurated the TATA Aircraft Complex in Vadodara, marking a major milestone for the "Make in India" initiative in the aviation sector.
The two leaders unveiled the Final Assembly Line (FAL) Plant for the C295 military aircraft, developed by Tata Advanced Systems in collaboration with Airbus Spain.
The recent El Clasico victory for Barcelona was a significant one. The club has been flying under the regime of Hansi Flick and is quickly establishing themselves as the team to beat in Europe.
After a highly intense first half in which the deadlock had remained intact, the floodgates opened fast through a quickfire brace by Robert Lewandowski which was followed by goals by Lamine Yamal, who became the youngest goal scorer in Clasico history, and Raphinha to impose the heavy defeat at Real Madrid’s fortress, the Santiago Bernabeu
Before the game against Real Madrid, Barca had also defeated their German rivals, FC Bayern Munich 4-1 in yet another emphatic victory.
The win was of great significance for another reason. Poetically, Barcelona’s win not only ended Real Madrid’s historic 42-game unbeaten run but also in the process preserved their record of the longest unbeaten streak in La Liga history which is a 43-match streak by Ernesto Valverde's Barcelona between 2017 and 2018.
