Barcelona is having an electrifying season under Hansi Flick. The Catalans are back in the La Liga race and in form. Barcelona plays masterclass football in every game, especially when the opponents wear white. Barcelona has a different relationship with teams who wear white.
Statement Wins in El Clásico
Real Madrid players themselves admitted Barcelona was a nightmare. Barcelona crushed Real Madrid in La Liga after a promising 4-0 win in the Santiago Bernabeu. This game was a real test for Barcelona this season, and the Catalans didn’t fail to impress. The Barcelona squad went into this game with a winning mentality to make a proper statement about their comeback.
Not only in La Liga, Barcelona dismantled their arch-rivals in the Spanish Super Cup as well. Barcelona had a poor run of form in recent La Liga games, which made Real Madrid fans a little too excited and they thought they would have the upper hand in the final and will win their first silverware of the season against Barcelona. But Barcelona had other plans, Barcelona completely dominated the game and demolished Real Madrid to win the Super Cup final with the score ending 5-2. The Catalan giants made Madrid’s white shirts look more like training bibs.
Valencia’s White Woes Continue
Not much personal against Valencia, but the only problem Valencia had was their white kit. It’s not their fault, but now it’s a tradition for Barcelona to humble teams wearing white shirts. Barcelona scored seven goals past Valencia in La Liga, this was a complete demolition game in which the Catalans didn’t leave anything.
Later Valencia was looking to get a better result in the Copa Del Rey quarter-finals at their home, but again facing Barcelona in white is often a recipe for disaster. Barcelona scored 4 goals in the first half, this made the majority of Valencia fans leave the stadium. Barcelona won that game 5-0 away from home.
Poor Sevilla And Valladolid Suffer the Same Fate
Sevilla also wore a white jersey against Barcelona and suffered a similar fate. In October Barcelona played their first game against Sevilla, Barcelona completely dominated the game and won the game 5-1. Yesterday, the Catalans continued this streak and won 4-1 at their home.
Real Valladolid originally wore a white and purple striped shirt, unfortunately, they wore plain white against Barcelona earlier this season. They got the taste of wearing white against Barcelona when Barcelona scored seven past them.
Is This A Psychological Edge?
Whether this is a coincidence or a psychological advantage, here is just a gentle reminder for all the teams don’t wear white against Barcelona.
Haha this is so true. Never wear white against us
