Luis Suárez: Scoring in the Clásico is incredible | FCBarcelona.com

Luis Suarez: “Clásicos are always special, they are spectacular to play in. I was lucky to see a lot of Clásicos and then have the chance to play in them. What I remember most about the first goal that I scored in a Clásico in the 2014/15 season. It was a very important goal, it gave us the win and it brought the title closer. The goals in the Bernabéu in the 4-0 win were also really important. They are unique moments, to score against your biggest rivals away from home is incredible.”

“For the fans it’s really important to win these games. People are really involved and that motivates the players a lot. The fans have a really important role. You come out and see the mosaic [in the stands before kick-off] and the atmosphere is spectacular. It’s a privilege to pla in these match, more so here at Camp Nou.”

The 44-year-old recently announced his departure from Maccabi Tel Aviv at the end of the season, but has insisted that there is no talks with the Blaugrana.

"I think in the last 12-18 months there has always been that rumour coming up. Previously, in other years, there has been talks, maybe not in that role specifically. We'll see what's going to happen because it's a club near my heart, but sometimes that's not enough reason to make a decision like this. Timing has to be right, and we're not really in a situation to give a clear answer on that. We'll see, so far it's only rumours."

Jordi Alba responds to Real Madrid’s excuse for Barcelona Guard of Honour snub | Squawka

Real Madrid are refusing to give Barcelona the same honour next week because their rivals refused to present Los Blancos with the customary honour after they returned to Spain with the Club World Cup in December.

“It’s not a decision we take, everyone has respect for those who want to,” Spain international Jordi Alba told reporters. "The Club World Cup was a competition we didn’t play in. At the [Santiago] Bernabeu, in the league, we have previously performed a guard of honour. If they don’t want to give us a guard of honour it will be because it comes from upstairs."
