Name for FC Barcelona Femení and Real Madrid CF Femenino rivalry
The Women's Clásico , or women's El Clásico (also in all lowercase letters ),[ 1] natively Spanish : El Clásico femenino [ 2] [ 3] and Catalan : El Clàssic femení ,[ 4] [ 5] is the women's association football rivalry between Liga F teams Barcelona and Real Madrid . It originates in the equivalent men's football rivalry , though does not share the same history. As of 2024, Barcelona has won every women's Clásico matches.[ 6] [ 7]
The men's El Clásico is a passionate rivalry, and this has also extended to women's football, although Real Madrid Femenino was only founded in 2020[ 8] whereas FC Barcelona Femení is more than 30 years older and has been one of Spain's leading clubs since the 2010s. The second leg of the UEFA Women's Champions League quarter-finals between the clubs at Camp Nou on 30 March 2022 was attended by 91,553 spectators; at the time, this was the largest known confirmed attendance for any women's football match (the 1971 Mexico –Denmark game with unconfirmed 110,000 would otherwise be a record).[ 9] [ 10] [ 11] [ 12] Reigning continental champions Barcelona won 5–2 on the day and 8–3 on aggregate.[ 12] The attendance was later surpassed in Barcelona's next Champions League match, the semi-finals first leg against VfL Wolfsburg , held at Camp Nou.[ 9]
Due to Real Madrid being such a new club, for the first few years of its existence, the Clásico between the women's sides was questionable, especially as these years also marked a golden generation of Barcelona's women's team, with few other clubs able to come close. However, Real Madrid's rapid improvement saw them quickly become one of the best teams in Spain, and a more worthy opponent for Barcelona. The record attendance in March 2022 marked the moment a real sense of rivalry was felt, though both clubs indicated that they also wanted to work together to help women's football grow. Off-the-pitch affairs have further contributed to a rivalry; since mid-2022, several top Spanish women's teams, prominently Barcelona, have openly rejected the governing body (RFEF ), with Real Madrid being one of few teams to stay on side with the RFEF.[ 13]
