Social networks exploded after FC Barcelona's overwhelming victory against Real Madrid (0-4). In addition to the result, users were amazed by Hansi Flick's tactical 'bath' and the effective offside trap

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona gave a defensive 'master class' in Santiago Bernabéu on Saturday. The culé saga executed to perfection the overtaking of lines to leave the forwards of the Real Madrid, constantly, offside. The plan of Hansi Flick succeeded to ask of mouth and Carlo Ancelotti, by his part, went back to remain portrayed home.

In the 90 minutes, Barça left the 'merengues' players 12 times in offside. Eight of them were in the first part and the same quantity was for Kylian Mbappé, the main victim of the masterful Barcelona defensive exercise.

The '9' saw how the VAR annulled him a goal in the first part by an offside very enclosed, but clear thanks to the technology and, in addition, he ran into Iñaki Crag in the hands manually who managed to evade the cheat of the offside.

Social networks are 'primed' with Madrid's offsides

After the game, social networks exploded with thousands of memes and videos joking about the number of times the 'merengue' team was offside. 'Carletto' did not know how to read the game or adjust his pieces in time to take advantage of the speed of his forwards and the Catalans' overtaking lines.

On the contrary, Barça did do the work in the opposite field, attacking the spaces provided by a completely broken defense in the complement. The disastrous game between Lucas Vázquez and Ferland Mendy on the sides cost the local team dearly and, finally, the Barça attacking trident asserted its hierarchy with four goals that consummated a historic win.

Real Madrid fans ask to change the offside rule after Barça's 'bath'

The desperation in the white 'cave' over offsides bordered on the ridiculous, with some even asking to change the offside rule. FIFA, in fact, has been working on the so-called 'Wegner law' for some time, which could be implemented from 2025.

This new regulation states that offside is only sanctioned when there is no part of the attacker that overlaps that of the defender at any time. In that sense, FIFA's idea is that, starting in 2025, only a player who, in attack, is more than one length ahead of the last defender in the rival defense, will be considered offside.
