Marca's beautiful 'In Your House or Mine' front page

Madrid is a city divided.

Separated by two very different ideas of what it means to be Madrileno. In the north is Real Madrid, a rich club representative of royalty in football. In the south is Atletico Madrid, a poor club synonymous with mattress makers.

On Saturday, Marca captured the division wonderfully.

Ahead of the 2015-16 Champions League final, Marca published a front page in which the names of those who comprise Real Madrid's and Atleti's starting XIs are seen hanging from the balconies of an apartment building. Attached is a caption that translates as "In Your House or Mine."

Somehow, those who organised the mosaic accurately predicted all 22 of the match's starters.

For the 11th time in the club's illustrious history, Real Madrid has been crowned king of Europe, with Zinedine Zidane's side capturing a second Champions League title in three years with a 5-3 shootout victory over Atletico Madrid in Saturday's final at the San Siro.

Atletico, beaten two years ago by Real in this same fixture, will need to wait to claim its first-ever trophy in Europe's showpiece competition, as Cristiano Ronaldo slotted home the decisive spot-kick to break Atleti hearts.
