Florentino Perez - Real Madrid president - comments about the game:

"We wanted to make a tribute to the soccer in the year of our centerary. The Real Madrid is "big" team because has "fought" against extraordinary teams and players in the last 100 years -sometimes losing and sometimes winning. And we wanted to thanks to all that people around the world that have contributed to help to make the soccer the most important sport in the world. That is the idea of the game."
