Saturday’s ‘Clásico’ is the “safest game in the history of Spanish football”

Perdiguero insists it is a high-risk match “simply because of the Madrid and Barça fanatics.” On a police level it has been qualified as the “safest game in the history of Spanish football” because both teams have incremented their private security staff as well as the police work in progress. The spokesman of the syndicate urges fans to enjoy the ‘Clásico’: “what I mean is for people to be calm and cautious, and enjoy the sports event.”
