Sergio Busquets surpasses Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos’ record in El Clasico

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Barcelona and Real Madrid faced off for the third time this season in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final. The 34-year-old player once again started in Xavi’s midfield and it was the 46th El Clasico appearance of his career. So what took Busquets past the records of Messi and Ramos, who ended their LaLiga careers after playing in 45 derbies apiece.

With the second leg of the Copa del Rey still to be played in a month’s time, as well as a league game at Camp Nou between the two meetings, Busquets will have the chance to take his caps total to 48 before making a decision about his future in the summer.

Ahead of their next match against arch-rivals, the Spanish veteran will be hoping to feature in some capacity at home to Valencia on Sunday.
