Anish's video of Barca vs Real has been posted below. But we can't get enough of how Barca pulverized Real at the Bernabeu. Is the gap so yawning?

The end result is mind boggling considering Real's emphatic start. Higuain's header should have sowed some seeds of doubt in the Barca camp but it looked like this was part of a grand scheme to systematically deflate their rivals. We have to go back 36 years to find proof that Real was that fallible. In 1973 they lost to Barca, 0-5 at the Bernabeu with Johann Cruyff at his peak. The results are pouring in with fans overwhelmingly voting this as the worst defeat.

Sure, this is all emotional and one can sleep over it and rationalize. But soccer is emotional and the pain, real. (pun not really intended but very apt in this case).
