Barca Blaugranes meets former Barcelona striker David Villa

This Sunday, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid meet in the latest iteration of El Clasico. This is probably the preeminent rivalry in world soccer, at least if you go by the amount of media attention it receives.

I had the chance to sit down with Spanish legend David Villa -- who played for FC Barcelona between 2010 and 2013 -- and ask him a few questions about life, La Liga, and just what made him tick. Villa is the all-time leading scorer for the Spanish national team, with 59 goals in 98 appearances, and the country’s top scorer in the World Cup, with nine goals.
