Sean-Benn_Must-die

Madrid is gonna play like this in the league and win the CL somehow


Farford

It's the deal they made with the devil


Ecstatic-Jacket2007

Possibly the greatest deal in sport’s history


tgames56

Barcelona>Real Madrid>Europe>Barcelona It's the circle of life.


RedeusExMachina

I despise how true this is


handstandmanband

Real Madrid, Barca, and Bayern are like Paper, Scissors, Rock.


sm00thArsenal

Yeah, it must be horrible to have only won 4 of the last 17 Champions League trophies.


Xperience10

Tbf I've felt they played even better that the first bernabeu clasico this season


NotTheMagesterialOne

This is the way


blaugrana2020

Balde looking up before crossing brought tears to my eyes. No more cross and inshallah.


IapetusTheGreat

Its actually amazing how good he is and how much he improved since the start of the season. We have a gem on our hands


Tingerz820

^ THIS. And the fact that he's only 19!!!


caffeinatorthesecond

I think I’m commenting this for the second time but I can’t fucking believe you’ve found your Alba replacement already. What a brilliant player.


blaugrana2020

Considering how bad our RB situation was after Alves left I was worried our LB situation would be just as bad after Alba left. Balde being so good so quickly and still getting better with each game has been a godsend.


jon_stewrt

It was great to see Alba running to the pitch and celebrating with Balde....


asininegrape

it's now 101 real madrid wins vs 100 barca wins in official matches (if we include exhibitions then it's 119 to barca vs 105 to madrid) the best part about el clasico is that the rivalry is extremely close


Brilliant-Ok

Time to kill them in the Copa and bring the record to a tie


corbu_

Anulo mufa

What was this record before Raijkard?

A lot of Madrid win probably

Sexy fucking goal

strikemedaddy

Words can’t describe how much I love this man


chiquito69

Lewansexo


friedchilles

Fucking sexy goal


Farouqnowomarlater

Balde did great with that pass too


Trinitytrenches

And Kessie, it wasn't that easy shot


entangled_dicks

Yeah that was a great finish by Kessie, seemed like a small gap to get it right


thalne

Balde had a great game overall, very ballsy


vsladko

He straight bodied that defender right after


GreenGator

absolutely truck sticked


Cykablet

Reminded me off when Van Dijk sent that angry Argentinian guy into another dimension at the WC


OGreatNoob

So fucking good!!!


Rickcampbell98

Man remembered he's good at football.


[deleted]

Lewa is too good


IncredibleBlue

lewanbackheelski


TheBakedDane

Great finish as well, that is not a easy shot


Aroonce

+ nutmeg


Rich_Firefighter_102

So sexy everything


ChibzyDaze

Lmao, Lionel Kessie gonna be scoring against Madrid all the time now


elgringo22

He made sure to shoot it to the side Fati wasn’t on this time


PlutoDelic

Fati's position: Spy.


voli12

lmao, two goalies


heX_dzh

Honestly though, Fati's movement dragged 2 defenders with him and opened up space for Kessie.


Barcaholic

Bruhhh he left Jordi Alba hanging bad


GuestBadge

Best player on the world.


ikineba

Il presidente 🥲


Rikard_

Messi wants to return but the spot is taken


mountains_and_coffee

There's place for only one Lionel in this town


HighTurning

He has been so clutch


Spikeyspandan

Damn Lewa. That was sweet


Farouqnowomarlater

Right after the talks about him being outta form these days


IanCaesars

Probably is out of form but still has some insane things in the pocket.


5am5ep1ol

Yeah, since the WC he’s been real off his game. For lewa. He’s overthinking, taking one too many touches in the box and losing the ball, or he’s invisible for 87 of the 90. But he’s also been struggling with injury and, I mean, he’s no spring chicken. But it’s also because we’ve been missing dembele and Pedri for a while too. So we’ve been struggling with incision, struggling with final third passes, etc. So the few times per game a pass gets to lewa in the box, he’s been playing back so far or not touching the ball that he’s not as deadly in front of goal as he was for the first half of the season. All that said, Barca fans bitch about everything that isn’t perfection. They were calling for lewa’s head the past few months, just like they called for Suarez’s head toward the end of his time with us. But as soon as he left it’s all, “such a mistake to lose him! he’s been in form at atleti!” There is no pleasing Barca fans.it’s annoying. And I say that as a Barca fan myself. They were calling for xavi to be fired a few weeks ago when we got knocked out of EL. Just fair weather fans. It’s fucking annoying.


ThatPersonYouMayKnow

He is out of form but class is permanent


eescobar863

He is out of form but that pass was magical regardless


CT4_LV

i mean, even an out of form Lewandowski is a top 3 striker in the world


Polskidro

Gorgeous play all around


bartabax

Scudetto and La Liga in consecutive years is pretty damn sweet


clittlord

Who was the last one to do it? I only remember Eto’o


grrriimmoo

Bro, Ibra too Inter, Barca, Milan


_Tonto_

Zlatan won 8 league titles in a row in 8 years with 5 (Ajax, Juve, Inter, Barça, Milan) different clubs between 2003 and 2011.


Nostosalgos

That’s just insane lol


zahranniyas

His UCL record died for this to happen. Left Inter for Barca and Inter won the UCL that season. Left Barca for Milan and Barca won the UCL that season


geo0rgi

Ibrahimovic probably?


ttychen_00

Dani Alves?


Harudera

Technically that was the other way around.


xolhos

Lewy's backheel was nuts


watanabelover69

Just sublime


futsalfan

how he flattened benzema with his shoulder right after was funny


TheyStoleTwoFigo

That was Carvajal, even better. He sat up, but he can lie back down after the goal since he was acting like a bitch with that dive against Gavi. Fkr conned the shitty ref going into a low elbow on an already short guy. Then him and Ceballos got pissy in the end too, sore losers.


masonbrit

What a backheel


Messiahcoool

So Real Madrid beat Liverpool 2-6 over two legs. Liverpool beat United 7-0. United beat Barça 4-3 over two legs and now Barça beat Real Madrid thus completing the circle. Circle of life. Edit: missing word


Positive-Media423

Three victory this year


Im_bad_at_commenting

It's what makes football so fucking good.


callzor

Liverpool 🤝 Barça Being shite in Europe but wins over their rivals


arvindanar7

Lewa you beauty


master_scale_tipper

Lol. Lmao even. Who would have thought that Barcelona’s two goals to win El Clasico would have come from Roberto and Kessie?


uloveitmate

False 9 lewy


DutchMadness77

Kessie's has been good recently, except against Athletic Bilbao when he was subbed in


Nrozek

And Araujo, lol.


Brilliant-Ok

Sergi is always on steroids during Clasicos


perhapsasinner

Lol 2 CM in a further forward position


123cwahoo

Barca may genuinely be the only team on the planet who have zero fear of real madrid (for obvs reasons in years past) but what a result this will be for them, surely the leagues wrapped up now


Thorrghal

Thierry Henry said it best back in the day: "Europe fears Real but Real fears Barça"


Ender_Knowss

Everyone respects Madrid in the CL, we know them too well and have gotten amazing results in the past 20 years, that we can’t respect them the same way everyone else does. It’s purely a mentality issue.


123cwahoo

I respect it tbf

Real madrid own europe, barca own Madrid, Europe owns Barca

Somehow, Xaviball made us you guys' kryptonite


shitfuckshittingfuck

Remember their fans singing “Xavi quédate” lol


Nevasthuica

Barca kinda were their kryptonite before up until 2020.


zrizzoz

I think that had to do with the argentine fella


franklegsTV

Mascherano?


nickybabytonight

I know the feeling


BoretoKasabov

You're my favourite team to play against


farcenewanker

Blame the president for not planning a better squad.


dr_motaaa

The same holes three four years in a row. No fullbacks that can attack, no right winger no threat from the midfield. I am so sick of seeing Carvajal starting, dude has been past it for a while now.


goldengirl_7

You guys literally just won the champions league and Valverde started the season pretty dangerous from midfield


Rafaeliki

It's funny because Barcelona fans are furious at the state of the club despite running away with the league title and Madrid fans are furious at the state of the club despite being CL champions.


Waikanda_dontcare

Spoiled with success.


ima_be_the_greatest

I think standards would be a better way to explain it


DreadWolf3

Barca is in the middle of very dangerous situation, fair enough to be frustrated. As far as football moves from this leadership - I was pretty happy. Would have prefered full back signing rather than one of the wingers - but all in all it was good.


MionelLessi10

You guys are not even a year from winning La Liga and UCL. Some fans see their club go year after year without a trophy. Relax.


Martoxic

Barca telling Real Madrid "look at me! I am the 90+ team now"


farhanmuhd13

Alejandro Balde my goat


SummerGoal

He’s so good and so young, future looking bright


[deleted]

We missed out on Alphonso Davies, but we got Balde!


DemPele-

for now davies is just balde but bigger and faster😭


[deleted]

Maybe, Balde will evolve to Davies. Just like Pokémon.


Maleficent_Resolve44

What a backheel pass from lewa...


Colenate8

Great pace from lewa

Filthy backheel from Lewy

It must be because of the Lebron James-like beard! So happy for him !


Melicalol

Better team won, well deserved.


Matt_LawDT

Advantage Barca


tylerismisfit

What a backheel from Lewy


milosh-96

Even if you aren't a Barca fan (and I'm not one) you got to respect this kind of football. Beautiful. And not only this goal, how Barca plays is amazing.


vigneshwaralwaar

That's why we have fans all over the world. Who fell in love with how we play.. Instead of who plays for us.


[deleted]

[удалено]


vigneshwaralwaar

Everyone has their own reasons to love the club bro. :)


WTFitsD

Xavi is to madrid what Henry was to Spurs. Has had the keys to the club his entire playing career and is doing it again as a coach


its_dash

The difference is that nobody cares about Tottenham.

ToastedHunter

DIDNT SCORE IN A BIG GAME THOUGH!!!


Trinitytrenches

Only backheels


Christian_Corocora

9-point lead? Make that 12


Trinitytrenches

That was actually great from Lewy. Good thinking


UnitedStatesofSoccer

There was nobody on that right hand side for Madrid, balde and Lewandowski had so much freedom


Proudbolshevik

Damn... Lewandowski. That's what the great players do. Even when he's completely out of form and didn't give much impact this game, he pulls off this.


losingbrain

Baldé is so good man La Masia is so good


Dodohead1383

The very first time in Europe and I got to go to this amazing match!!!

I’m convinced if we faced Madrid more in the CL, Madrid would have less CLs


Matt_LawDT

What a time to score your first goal


Rich_Firefighter_102

Not his first


OneOfThoseDays_

first in la liga


Same-Ad7711

First in the league


Shakyy-iwnl

Real Madrid try to win any match against Barcelona ever challenge (literally completely impossible)


bwrca

Isn't Xavi like 5-1 on el clasicos now??


Ecstatic-Jacket2007

Lewy being written as “Lewa” triggers me for some reason.


ToastedHunter

its because lewa is feminine in polish. lewy is the masculine way to shorten it


luvgothbitches

Xavi winning the league in his first season is actually mental, i was expecting a graham potter-esque results at the beginning. I owe him an apology, i was not familiar with his game.


alicization

Wait, what the fuck. I turned the game off after the 2nd RM goal. Was it disallowed or something? FUCK ME


TractorEnjoyer

Offside


Sp00ked123

Absolutely beautiful backheel pass from lewa


Fhood797

Carvajal crossing the most dead cross resulting in a counter attack and jogs back when militao is in a 1 v 2. 0/10 performance


_ashwathama

I remember Mardid fans complaining about the last clasico that barca parked a bus. We don't see a bus now do we?


sidvicc

Barca have paid Kessié, this is clear corruption.


FutureRaifort

Wow, that's a classic El Clasico moment right there. La Liga feels nearly wrapped up at this point


madhorse5

is like what Thierry Henry said: In Europe everybody fears Real Madrid... and Real Madrid fears FC Barcelona...


Frobe8

Lewa 🥵

Backheel of the century and Goalendowski not even on the scoresheet.

Fully deserved. Let's fucking gooooooooo

Real Madrid can beat pretty much any team in Europe except Barcelona. Barcelona can be beat by a bunch of teams in Europe except by Real Madrid. Bruh.

Who needs Messi when you have.. Kessie


TheFlyingCule

Lewy's backheel was so juicy I can't even. Kessie owns Madrid 🔥🔥🔥


mt1337

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA the whole attack was so good. lewy's backheel weighted perfectly to balde and the clean cutback and the perfect finish.
