FC Barcelona's 10 Best Wins Against Real Madrid
There's nothing like winning! It's even better when you win while defeating your biggest rival at the same time.
FC Barcelona and Real Madrid have been fighting it out for over a century now—and it's even.
How even is it? In 217 official matches, both teams are tied at 86 wins apiece!
A win in the second leg of the Copa Del Rey quarterfinal will give the edge to either team and it's fitting that it happens in a Copa Del Rey match. Why? Because it was a Copa Del Rey match where these two giants of football first faced off.
Barcelona has had all sorts of victories against Real—some by the narrowest of margins and some by blowout proportions.
I decided to look at Barcelona's best wins versus Real Madrid. These wins are based on several criteria including margin of victory, individual performances in the game, importance of the game for Liga title, UEFA Champions League, Copa Del Rey, etc., and importance of the game in FC Barcelona's history.
Many of the players who played in these games you'll be familiar with like Xavi, Lionel Messi, and Andres Iniesta. Some of the names are legends of the club and legends from a distant past.
El Clásico is the biggest league game in the world. And Barcelona has had great victories in it!
With that being said, here are the 10 best wins against Real Madrid ever.

FC Barcelona: Leo Messi, 3 Time Ballon D' or Winner Graces 'Time' Cover
Lionel Messi has been selected to grace the front cover of Time magazine. The event is the first time that Time magazine (from the US) has elected a world football player to grace its cover.
The news was published on the FC Barcelona web page. The Time magazine issue is expected to be on sale to the public on January 29, 2012.
The magazine cover is expected to have the caption "King Leo" with the sobriquet "The Greatest Player In The World". The appearance of a world football player on the cover of Time magazine or other US magazines (with the exception of those dedicated to sports and world football) is long overdue.
The mainstream media in the USA is beginning to take world football seriously with the presence of personalities such as Lionel Messi and Hope Solo. The match between FC Barcelona and Chivas of Guadalajara at Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Florida last summer was attended by more than 70,000 people. The attendance is considered the highest rate of a world football match in Florida.
I would like to extend my congratulations to Lionel Messi and FC Barcelona for gracing the front cover of Time.
