Barcelona were worthy winners of the latest installment of el Clasico with a thumping 5-0 victory over Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid at Camp Nou.
Xavi opened the scoring on 10 minutes after a defensive mistake by the away side. Pedro added a second eight minutes later with a close-range finish. Barcelona continued to control the game and made it three on 55 minutes with an expert David Villa finish who added another three minutes later.
The cherry was placed in the cake in the 91st minute when substitute Jeffren bundled in a fifth. To add to their misery, Real Madrid were reduced to ten-men in the 93rd minute when Sergio Ramos received his marching orders.
Pep Guardiola's men return to the top of Liga BBVA after inflicting the first defeat of the seaon for Real Madrid who will have to show plenty of mental strength to bounce back from this one.
The first chance fell to Barcelona on six minutes when Lionel Messi nearly produced a moment of magic worthy of gracing any game. The diminutive superstar nonchantly curled a left-footed effort towards the top corner from the tightest of angles but could only watch on as he ball rebounded off the post and to safety.

Jose mounrinho thought he could win barca just the same way he won in the champions league. Barca are unpredictable.They correct their mistakes very quickly. Guardiola is very much sensible than mounrinho in football level. Mounrinho thought Guardiola would use lione messi in the attacking whereas, other players he did not even expected were used. Best of barca.Three gbosa gbosa gbosa.
