PEAK NEGREIRA! Di Maria on Pep’s Barça during Mourinho’s era: “The only way to beat that Barça was by kicking them, getting stuck in, and running more than them. And eventually, that started leading to players basically beating the hell out of each other on the pitch. There were moments when I was scared they were going to injure Leo. I was more worried about making sure nothing happened to him than anything else, you know? The match at Mestalla too, that final, it was kick after kick. I kicked Leo when he was breaking away on the counter. Afterward, I went to help him up and said: ‘Sorry, man, but if I didn’t bring you down, you would’ve scored. I had no other choice.’ There was no other way. You had to play like that. They were impossible to stop.”

A Spanish referee said it openly in 1976: “As long as Plaza is president, Barcelona will not be champions again.” This clip goes into the José Plaza era, when he led Spanish refereeing for years. José María García says Real Madrid enjoyed all possible favors during that period and describes the refereeing establishment as clearly pro-Madrid. Former Barcelona president Agustí Montal also recalled asking Plaza directly which team he supported after his retirement. Plaza’s answer: “Real Madrid, period.” Then comes the most explosive part. Referee Antonio Camacho publicly stated in 1976: “As long as Plaza is president, Barcelona will not be champions again.” Camacho pointed to Barcelona’s lack of league titles during that period and said he still stood by what he had said. The documentary concludes by describing the refereeing establishment of that era as openly pro-Real Madrid. English subtitles added to the video.
