Zinedine Zidane's Real Madrid has only just begun, but the numbers are excellent (two Champions Leagues and one La Liga title in 18 months). However, few teams have managed to reach the aesthetic level accomplished by Barca back when Guardiola was in charge.
The Manchester City coach managed a team between 2009 and 2012 that not only dominated Spain and Europe (three league titles, two Champions Leagues and three Copa del Rey trophies, among others), but also played like no other team.
Nobody can deny Real Madrid's resourcefulness, determination and efficiency, but that Barca side will go down in history most of all because of how they did it.
When Real Madrid won the Champions League and La Liga, many began to compare both teams. The following video was made viral to illustrate that, for now, there is a considerable difference in quality.
Que no me comparen el juego de este Madrid de Zidane con el del Barça de Guardiola. Lo pido por favor. pic.twitter.com/bR6SWc68D5
