News Article: El Barça deleita al Camp Nou con otra manita ante la Real Sociedad



El Barça deleita al Camp Nou con otra manita ante la Real Sociedad

 

This article talked about how well FC Barcelona has been playing this season.  They just defeated Real Sociedad by a huge margin, scoring five goals while shutting out the opponent.  The article credits the heroic plays of Xavi, Messi and David Villa.  Not only is it a huge deal that Barcelona won by such a large amount in a game that usually only sees one or two goals scored a game, but also because it is their ninth straight win this year, and a crowd of about 80,000 witnessed it happen.

In their recent win streak they have defeated teams like Getafe, Ceuta, Villarreal, and Almeria to name a few.  But the biggest win came when they defeated their biggest rival in El Classico, Real Madrid.  The article does not forget to highlight their epic 5-0 win against Christiano Renaldo and the rest of the Real Madrid squad, which was a game I will never forget watching.  I had one friend who was able to see the Real Madrid game live, but the rest of us had to watch it at a bar called La Ovella Negra.  Regardless, the atmosphere was intense and everyone enjoyed watching FC Barcelona crush Real Madrid.

Barcelona sports director Andoni Zubizarreta captured the feeling of the crowd best when he said  “Cada minuto hay que disfrutarlo porque vivimos algo excepcional” or in English “Every minute you still enjoy watching us because we are something exceptional” (which is what he said, as far as I can understand).  FC Barcelona truly is an exceptional football club to watch; since Saturday November 20th they have scored a whopping twenty-one goals for while getting zero against.
