Real Madrid have been waiting a long time for a win like this. It’s been a long time since they inflicted a real debacle on their rivals. Until last year, it had a streak of 5 El Clásico wins in a row, but it had never managed to score that many goals. Until yesterday.
And logically, it was live on social media. When Barcelona, after winning the Spanish Super Cup, won the trophy after three years and headed back to the booth, Ronald Araújo kissed the medal towards the camera and exclaimed.
Those words came back to him like a boomerang yesterday. After the 4-0 win, Dani Ceballos teased his counterpart on the way to the bus, exclaiming, “A new era! New era!”
Karim Benzema has once again shown why he is the last Ballon d’Or winner. He scored two hat-tricks in three days, plus one to destroy Barcelona at Camp Nou.
“If Deschamps hadn’t been an idiot and taken Benzema to the World Cup, France might not have lost the final,” fans wrote.
Frankfurt added more salt to Barcelona’s wound. The German side occupied the Camp Nou in the Europa League quarter-finals last year, with 30,000 fans in white. Frankfurt eventually advanced after winning 3-2.
“We’ve seen this white party before,” Frankfurt wrote on its official Twitter account, adding a photo from last year’s match.
Robert Lewandowski was completely obliterated in El Clásico. Eder Militao didn’t let him do anything and after the game, jokes rained down on the Polish goal scorer.
The scandal surrounding former Barcelona footballer Gerard Piqué and his now ex-partner Shakira is still very active.
She “dedicated” 3 break-up songs to him and admitted that the way he treated her affected her a lot. So after the match, Real Madrid fans took out a photo of the Colombian singer showing 0:4.
