Gerard Pique Taunts Real Madrid with Social Media Post Following Barcelona's El Clasico Victory
Barcelona legend Gerard Pique couldn’t resist mocking Real Madrid after his former team's emphatic 4-0 triumph in El Clasico.
What Happened?
In a dominant display at the Santiago Bernabéu, Barcelona secured a commanding win with a brace from Robert Lewandowski, along with goals from Lamine Yamal and Raphinha. This victory further solidified Barcelona's position at the top of La Liga. Pique, who has a storied history with the club, quickly took to social media to revel in the win.
What Gerard Pique Said
In his tweet, the 37-year-old expressed his pride in Barcelona's achievements, stating: "We [Barcelona] are unique. They [Madrid] can never be like us. With all the young people of La Masia. What a recital. What a pride. ❤️."
The Bigger Picture
Pique's exuberance is well-founded, as his former team’s victory not only ended Madrid's impressive 42-game unbeaten run in La Liga but also extended their lead to six points at the top of the table. With Hansi Flick at the helm, Barcelona appears to be a formidable force in this title race.
What’s Next for Barcelona?
Barcelona will aim to maintain their lead when they host local rivals Espanyol next Sunday. Following that, they will return to Champions League action on November 6 against Red Star Belgrade, looking to build on their current momentum.
