Barca was mocked after losing 0-4 to Real

Spain Real Guti and German club Eintracht Frankfurt gloated on social media when Real beat Barca 4-0 on April 5.

"Well, Xavi is right to think that Real is overrated," Guti wrote on Twitter after the King's Cup semi-final second leg. In the previous press conference, Barca coach Xavi said that Real had more chances to reach the final despite losing 0-1 in the first leg.

Not long after appearing, the message of the former Real player became one of the most shared messages online.

German club, Eintracht Frankfurt also did not miss the opportunity to poke fun at Barca: "We have seen a white party like this before". Last season, Frankfurt also wore white at the Camp Nou when they beat Barca 3-2 in the quarter-finals of the Europa League and 4-3 in the final. The German club then beat West Ham 3-1 in the semi-finals and Rangers 5-4 in the final penalty shootout.

At Camp Nou on the evening of April 5, Barca played well until Vinicius opened the scoring in the first minute of the first half. After Benzema's goal doubled in the 50th minute, the Camp Nou team really collapsed. Benzema scored two more goals in the 58th and 80th minutes.

Real reached the final with the final score 4-1. They will compete for the King's Cup against Osasuna on May 6. In the remaining semi-finals, Osasuna won over Bilbao on aggregate 2-1.

The semi-final second leg of the King's Cup is the fifth El Clasico of the 2022-2023 season. Real started the series with a 3-1 victory in the first leg of La Liga. However, they lost 1-3 in the final of the Spanish Super Cup, 0-1 in the semi-finals of the King's Cup and 1-2 in the second leg of La Liga.

Real is ranked second in La Liga, with 59 points after 27 matches, 12 points behind Barca. Barca will win the title if they win eight of the remaining 11 matches.

This season, Real still has the opportunity to defend the Champions League. They will meet Chelsea in two quarter-finals on April 12 and 18. If they win, they will go to the semi-finals to meet the winner of the Man City - Bayern pair.
