Zinedine Zidane has reiterated that Real Madrid will not form a guard of honour for Barcelona in the next Clasico clash between two old adversaries.
Tradition has dictated that La Liga’s fiercest rivals will acknowledge the achievements of one another once top honours are secured.
It could be that Barca will have secured another Spanish top-flight title by the time they welcome the Blancos to Camp Nou on May 6.
They will, however, be offered no ‘pasillo’ by Real, with Zidane considering that custom to have been broken.
His side received no recognition at Santiago Bernabeu on December 23 following their Club World Cup win and none will be offered in return to the champions-elect.
