Read Luis Enrique’s Reaction To Barcelon’s 4-0 Win At Real Madrid
It was the second consecutive loss for Real Madrid after an unbeaten start to its season, and the seventh straight win for Barcelona.

By that point the Madrid fans were in open rebellion against their own side with plenty of white handkerchiefs – a symbol calling for the coach’s sacking in Spain – on display. “I think the result of the game is based more on our merit than Real Madrid’s lack thereof”.
Nearly exactly 10 years after it first occurred the previously unthinkable happened again on Saturday – Real Madrid fans got to their feet to applaud a Barcelona player during the “Clasico” even though their team were losing.
“Real Madrid already have a new coach in Zidane, I believe it’s time to give him the opportunity, as Barca did with Pep Guardiola and Luis Henrique [sic]”.
However, despite the damage the win did to Madrid, the Barcelona coach didn’t want to rub too much salt into the wound, although he insisted his side had been the better of the two.
This victory also helped the Catalan giants pull six points clear at the top of La Liga.
“It became known as the “Steven Gerrard final” after he scored two goals – one of which was the best I’ve ever seen during a game – produced an assist and converted a penalty in the shootout yet Rafa said Momo Sissoko, our central midfielder, had been the best player!”
Yet, history now seems to have repeated itself as Benitez went for star names against Barca rather than many of those who have performed better so far this season and paid the price.
This is a problem for Real Madrid that will not change unless the whole idea and whole philosophy changes.
Following the game, Barca boss Luis Enrique said the win was one for the ages.
Barcelona scored the fourth goal in the 74th minute when Suarez found the net a second time.
Chasing a sixth La Liga title in eight years, Barca have 30 points, with Real, who lost 3-2 at Sevilla in their previous outing, on 24.
“We played what was quite honestly a complete match in every sense”, Iniesta, who was given an ovation by the home fans when he was substituted late on, told Spanish television. By the end of a miserable first half, Real Madrid had a single shot at goal to Barcelona’s nine and only a single chance created against the visitor’s seven. “We won on a very hard ground against a team we are sure to fight for the league title”.
Neymar doubled their lead after 38 minutes following an exchange of passes with Suarez and had it not been for Marcelo’s block on the goal line Suarez would have made it 3-0 with the last kick of the half.

“Whenever we win or lose we are all part of it and obviously it hurts a lot to lose and to lose this way”.
