El Clasico in Riyadh: So far, but so close
Barcelona and Real Madrid will face off in the Supercopa de Espana semi-finals on Wednesday night in what will be the second-ever Clasico played outside of Spain.
The new format of the Supercopa sees the game played in Saudi Arabia, and this fixture is the first time that a Clasico will be played overseas as a recognized match.
In the first Clasico of the season, Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-1 at the Camp Nou in October 2021.
