On March 21, Beijing time, la Liga national derby, Real Madrid lost 0-4 to Barca at the Bernabeu. Even if the La Liga title is finally won, the defeat is one of the biggest shadows of the season and adds a shame to the history of the national derby.
Leading La Liga by 10 points, reversing the Champions League against Paris, and winning the national derby for five straight, Real Madrid were the favourites before the game, despite Benzema's absence due to injury. In the end, it is understandable to lose, but the 0-4 fiasco is indeed unexpected by many people.
Real Madrid lost four goals in a single game in the national derby, or the Camp Nou battle in October 2018, when the number of goals conceded was even more, 1-5! Messi was absent, but Suarez scored a hat-trick.
The last time Real Madrid scored four goals in the home match of the national derby was in November 2015, the score was also 0-4, Messi did not score on the bench, but Sushin scored twice, Neymar and Iniesta scored one goal each.
Further back, it's even worse: in the 0-5 massacre at Camp Nou in November 2010, Villa scored twice, Xavi and Pedro scored one goal each, and of course the most memorable thing was Pique's slap.
At the Bernabeu in May 2009, Real Madrid experienced its darkest day, being swept by Barca 2-6, Messi and Henry were double-shot, completely destroying their opponents and kicking off the second phase of the Galaxy.
Then, in the distant month of February 1974, Real Madrid suffered a 5-0 defeat at the Bernabeu to Barca, with John Cruyff scoring a goal. There were also 1-5 in February 1954, and the worst: 2-7 in September 1950! Conceding seven goals in a single game is also Real Madrid's worst record in the national derby.
Further on, there were 0-5 in March 1945, 0-5 in April 1935, and 1-5 in April 1926. Of course, Real Madrid have also beaten Barca many times, and the biggest score record in the national derby is what they hold: the semi-final of the 1943 Copa del Rey, 11-1! It was already an 8-0 lead at halftime.
