TRAINING UNDER WAY STORY: Barcelona assistant coach Marcus Sorg is confident the team is ready for the unexpected that so often is part of El Clasico, as they prepare to face LaLiga leaders Real Madrid on Sunday (October 25) at the Santiago Bernabeu. Sorg will take charge on Sunday (October 27) with Barca manager Hansi Flick suspended after being shown a red card during the 2-1 win over Girona in LaLiga on October 18 for allegedly protesting against refereeing decisions in the dying minutes of the match. “Hansi [Flick] is missing always if he is not there, because he is the most important part of the team,” Sorg said. Barcelona enjoyed four consecutive wins over Real in three competitions last season, putting 16 goals past them including a 4-0 rout at the Bernabeu and a 5-2 Super Cup final win.
