A tribute to the late Barca and Dutch icon
Not only is Saturday another edition of the most famous rivalry in the world 'El Clasico' between Barcelona and Real Madrid, but it's also the first time the Blaugrana will take the pitch since the death of a former club legend. Johan Cruyff donned the famous Barca kit from 1973-78 and scored 48 goals for the Catalan giants. At 68 years of age the Dutchman succumbed to lung cancer on March 24th during an international break.
To honor their fallen icon, Barcelona will wear a special shirt in honor of Cruff:
