Barcelona smash Real Madrid in El ClasicoJosé Mourinho always insisted that this game would not be decisive but it felt like it last night. He insisted that, having enjoyed the best start of any coach in the club's history, Madrid would lose one day but he did not expect to lose like this. Real Madrid, so impermeable before, were punctured tonight. Five times. A stunning 5-0 win represents the worst league defeat Mourinho has suffered in his career.
The chant going round this stadium, inspired by Mourinho's infamous accusation that Leo Messi had play-acted during a Chelsea-Barcelona Champions League, clash was clear: "Mourinho, go to the theatre." He might have wished he had. There would have been little comfort in the fact that this Barcelona side are a genuinely special one. Pep Guardiola's side were imperious, their control of the ball often breathtaking.
