Real Madrid inspiration, Robinho is looking forward to clashing with Brazilian teammate Ronaldinho at Camp Nou.


Robinho and goalkeeper Iker Casillas have been the two players who have been the saving grace of Real Madrid this season. With the Los Merengues playing as miserable as ever and constantly leaving keeper Casillas at the permanent mercy of opponents' strikers and in some cases, even defenders, Robinho has been producing extra-ordinary performance in a bid to keep his team afloat. Occassional support comes from Dutchman, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, after another Dutchman, Sneijder has fizzled out after starting the season brilliantly.


Now, the limping Real Madrid have vowed to recharge themselves with a victory at the Camp Nou when both teams clash in the first part of the El Classico on December 23. Robinho has said that Real Madrid can and will win FC Barcelona at the revered home ground of the Catalan Army. The Brazilian said:

We can beat Barcelona at Camp Nou next weekend. I am quite sure of that. Although we're focusing on the match before that, we are not at all in doubt of producing a great performance on that day.

The Blaugrana have already made up their minds to pick up the maximum three points against Real Madrid, and with the return of Samuel Eto'o, Deco and possibly Thierry Henry before that day, all seems set for a great and thrilling night at the Camp Nou, which all things being equal, Barca should thrash the noisy visitors from Madrid.
