Spanish champions FC Barcelona thrashed European champions and fierce foes Real Madrid 5-1 in the first Clasico of the season at Camp Nou, and that too without captain Lionel Messi.
Forward Luis Suarez stepped up when it mattered the most with a hat-trick to his name, while Brazilian Philippe Coutinho scored the opener at minute 11 and new-signing Arturo Vidal made it 5 four minutes before full-time.
Barcelona fans are having quite a fun time, and rightfully so, while Real Madrid fans seem to avoid any talk of last night’s fixture. Those who are talking want coach Lopetegui out.
Here are some of the funniest reactions from the El Clasico

While Lionel Messi was not playing the match, he made sure he had his share of the spotlight.
