Barcelona ripped apart Spanish title rivals Real Madrid to take top spot in La Liga with an emphatic 5-0 home victory in the first "Clasico" of the season on Monday night.
The visitors were rocked from the outset as Xavi and Pedro put Pep Guardiola's team 2-0 up inside 20 minutes, then David Villa scored twice as slick Barcelona thrash Real Madrid in four second-half minutes to effectively end the game before Jeffren's late goal just rubbed salt in Real's wounds.
The 5-0 thrashing was Jose Mourinho's first defeat science taking over in Real Madrid, and the worst of his career as coach. ''The championship isn't over today. There are lots of games left to play. We have to show character, train hard and get back to winning'' said Mourinho.
The best player of the match was Xavi Hernandez. Xavi was the architect this time, switching the ball from right to left with a raking, diagonal pass to Villa.
Ronaldo pushed Guardiola when the coach refused to give him the ball when it went out, resulting in Barca keeper Victor Valdes charging out of his area as players from both teams clashed.
This are the fantastic goals! They are amazing
VISCA EL BARÇA I VISCA CATALUNYA !
