24 things you probably did while watching El Clasico tonight

Barcelona ran out of the Clasico with a 2-1 victory to take them four points clear at the top of La Liga. El Clasico is more than just a game though, and it means more than just points on the league table. It’s an event that we all take time to enjoy whenever it comes around, no matter how much they might be diving or faking injury. Even if you didn’t go through this exact process watching the game – and it’s incredibly unlikely that you did – you would’ve had a few of these thoughts while watching Luis Suarez and co at the Nou Camp. 1. Grabbed the popcorn and nestled in to the sofa. How I watch the #ElClÃ¡sico… pic.twitter.com/IQlmOTlwZR — AJ DeLaGarza (@AJD_20) March 22, 2015 2. Or… the bath. El Bathico for the #ElClasico ðŸ˜‹ pic.twitter.com/Re9teZGP3h — Walshy (@J_C_Dubz) March 22, 2015 3. Told anyone who protests to leave. Mum just asked to change over from #ElClasico. She was swiftly, but politely told to leave the room — Carrick Anderson (@CarrickAndo) March 22, 2015 4. Took a minute to wish you were actually there. An amazing scene from the Camp Nou! #ElClasico! pic.twitter.com/ZOLgt8F5iE — World Soccer Shop (@worldsoccershop) March 22, 2015 5. Made a mental note of the time it took Lionel Messi to make his first nutmeg of the night. Normal business resumes #ElClÃ¡sico pic.twitter.com/HSAHJIEd6i — Dave AB (@Special_Asim) March 22, 2015 And Toni Kroos falls victim to the first #messi nutmeg!! Amazing to watch #ElClasico — Francis Maxwell (@francis_maxwell) March 22, 2015 6. Sang a song about your adopted club. Let's all have a disco, Modric, Kroos and Isco la la la la! #ElClasico — Emma Trill (@emmawfc_OM) March 22, 2015 7. Heaped some praise on someone for something. Ronaldo misses from 2 yards. What a player. #ElClasico — Daniel Stone (@DanStone08) March 22, 2015 8. Noted how 17 minutes had passed without anything happening. Christ, this is dull.#ElClasico — Bob (@Gruffexterior) March 22, 2015 9. Recognised that through the rivalry, comes love. Neymar resting his head of Ramos' shoulder…. #Bromance #ElClasico pic.twitter.com/ecuWm3Uklx — M.A.J (@UltraSuristic) March 22, 2015 10. Felt smug in that knowledge that that making a first goalscorer bet is always a foolish thing to do. All the attacking talent on show, and it's a defender's header from a set piece. #ElClasico — Roman Filipowicz (@fritzromanov) March 22, 2015 3 – Three (Bartra, Pepe and Mathieu) out of the last seven goals in #ElClÃ¡sico have been scored by defenders. Versatile — OptaJose (@OptaJose) March 22, 2015 11. And that the first booking of the game in this fixture is always going to one of two players. Shock to see Pepe getting the first yellow of the game #ElClasico — Mem (@OriginalMem) March 22, 2015 21 minutes in and Pepe gets a yellow. lol. I feel like that took too long. #ElClasico — Steph (@itsstephh__) March 22, 2015 12. Realised how much Manuel Neuer has changed the role of a goalkeeper. Go home Iker you're drunk. #ElClasico pic.twitter.com/NIcoQZiBVe — John Burn-Murdoch (@jburnmurdoch) March 22, 2015 13. And that you can’t keep a good striker from scoring. WOW NEYMAR MISSES……. YOU KNOW RONALDO AINT MISSIN'!!!! GGGGGOLAZOOOOOOOOOO!!!! #ElClasico #GameOn — #TeamCastro (@Castro1021) March 22, 2015 14. Rolled your eyes at the dives. So many dives. Pepe pretending to be shot in the leg. #elclasico #ForcaBarca — Mishaal Naeem Raja. (@MishaalNaeem) March 22, 2015 Yellow Card: Ronaldo goes into the book for diving. #ElClasico — Yakatak Football (@YakatakFootball) March 22, 2015 15. Said something about Pepe. I'm strongly convinced that even Pepe doesn't like Pepe. #elclasico — Raghid Harake (@raghiid) March 22, 2015 16. Realised that Gael Clichy and Alex Song have made it onto the punditry team and turned off your TV for half time. "We'll get the thoughts of Alex Song and Gael Clichy in a moment…" I literally cannot contain my excitement, guys. — TheODDSbible (@TheOddsBible) March 22, 2015 17. Watched Suarez score and celebrated in one of three ways: Either by embracing El Clasico. WHAT A BALL WHAT A FINISH…THIS IS WHY WE LOVE #ELCLASICO! — JP (@airjapesfifa) March 22, 2015 Or loathing the man who scored it. Bloody hell, if there's one bloke on the pitch I didn't want to be a match winner it's him #Suarez #ElClasico — Boggo (@Boggo1) March 22, 2015 Or by trying to involve yourself in it. Suarez strikes! It's quite a good feeling scoring at the Camp Nou in #ElClasico . Just saying. — Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) March 22, 2015 18. Forgot about the Suarez screamer for a minute and remembered that Gareth Bale is actually somewhere on the pitch. Gareth Bale hasn't completed a pass since the 60th minute. #ElClasico pic.twitter.com/SzzdCuYfUr — Squawka Football (@Squawka) March 22, 2015 Wheres bale lmao — Ricky (@young_rickkyy) March 22, 2015 Where is bale @ — Fisnik (@fisnikkh) March 22, 2015 Haven't seen Bale this half. — The False 9 (@TheFalse_9) March 22, 2015 19. Realised that even Barcelona’s official account is bored with Neymar’s selfish play. 73' Now Neymar has an open shot from Casillas' left! High and wide! FCB 2 – 1 RM #FCBlive #ElClasico — FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) March 22, 2015 20. Daydreamed about that perfect player who used to always be there to balance out all the foolishness. This match could do with abit of this! pic.twitter.com/Y1DXloXR8Y too many players falling to ground for no reason #ElClasico — ;) (@Tee100_) March 22, 2015 21. Noted that Xavi will probably never again be pulling strings in a Clasico. Here he comes. #ElClasico pic.twitter.com/zqlaPTGynk — Soccer Gods (@soccergods) March 22, 2015 22. Waited for Messi to score. Whenever Messi touches the ball: pic.twitter.com/150rn9pbcc — Jahan (@H00PINATI) March 22, 2015 23. Realised that it doesn’t matter whether or not he scores. Cristiano Ronaldo vs Lionel Messi in La Liga during 2015. Only one winner right now. #ElClasico pic.twitter.com/JtkVYInDl6 — Squawka Football (@Squawka) March 22, 2015 24. Turned off your TV, slightly underwhelmed. The final 30mins of the #ElClÃ¡sico was so poor I totally forgot how brilliant the opening 60mins was. About the same story in the 4-3 game. — Tolu 'Moteni (@tolumoteni) March 22, 2015 Second. Best. Experience. Ever. #ElClÃ¡sico pic.twitter.com/ZGqlnvJSyz — Abdullah Al-Mahdi (@AboodAlMahdi) March 22, 2015
