Barcelona are on the verge of being crowned La Liga champions, and today that phrase could become reality if the Catalans avoid defeat at home against Real Madrid. The same Madrid side where players are reportedly clashing with each other, and the interim coach has long lost control of the dressing room. All signs point to a comfortable Catalan victory, but what if we witness a legendary match? This is El Clasico, after all—anything can happen.

We’ll find out the result later. For now, let’s look back and choose the most epic El Clasico at Camp Nou in the 21st century. Specifically at this venue, given that the main stadium in Catalonia has undergone recent renovations. There have been thrashings in both directions, stunning goal exchanges, and even a goalless draw spiced with some non-football moments.

**Mourinho’s Absolute Collapse (5:0, November 29, 2010)**
La Liga – Matchday 13
November 29, 2010, Monday, 23:00 Moscow time
Barcelona 5 : 0 Real Madrid
1:0 – Xavi (10′)
2:0 – Pedro (18′)
3:0 – Villa (55′)
4:0 – Villa (58′)
5:0 – Jeffren (90+1′)
Red cards: None / Sergio Ramos (90+3′)
This Clasico is best captured by two quotes from commentator Vasily Utkin. First: “Do you know what the difference is between Real Madrid and a taxi? You can fit four in a taxi!” Second: “Barca won 5-0, and it’s so annoying—I can’t remember who they beat. Some invisible team came to Barcelona today—it’s even awkward for them. And I assure you, the players of that team, whose name I can’t recall right now, will do everything to forget this match. But they won’t be allowed to.”
Florentino Perez was right to call it the worst match in the club’s history. Pep Guardiola’s modern tiki-taka dismantled Jose Mourinho’s Real Madrid. In the first half, Xavi capitalized on a ricochet off Marcelo and cheekily lobbed Iker Casillas, while Pedro finished from David Villa’s cross. The second half only intensified the beating. Lionel Messi cut through three defenders with a penetrating pass, and Villa scored one-on-one. Then they repeated the trick, with Casillas even letting the ball slip between his legs. Finally, a link-up between Jeffren Suarez and Bojan Krkic sealed it: the former crossed, the latter slammed home.
Emotions ran high. Guardiola pushed the ball away and was shoved by Cristiano Ronaldo—yes, CR7 was on the pitch. Sergio Ramos, Carles Puyol, and Xavi had just won the World Cup, but that didn’t stop Ramos from pushing Puyol in the face and, after being sent off, punching Xavi in the chin. For such dominant wins in Catalonia, there’s a special term: “La Manita,” meaning “the little hand” and its five fingers. Gerard Piqué famously showed the five fingers after the final whistle.
