Last weekend saw Hansi Flick’s FC Barcelona demolish arch-rivals Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu with a brutal second-half performance that earned them a thumping 4-0 win.

It was a big statement from Barça who not only extended their lead at the top of the La Liga standings to six points but also served a resounding confirmation of the project’s promise under Flick’s leadership.
