FC Barcelona made their mark in La Liga this weekend with a 4-0 win over Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu, extending their lead at the top of the table to six points.
The win boosted their title chances and evoked memories of past glories among fans and former players.
Lionel Messi comments on FC Barcelona's 4-0 win over Real Madrid
Although Lionel Messi left Barcelona more than three years ago, his connection with the club is stronger than ever. After the decisive victory in El Clasico, Messi showed his support by commenting on FC Barcelona's official Instagram post celebrating the victory.
"What a great win!!" he wrote, delighted fans remembering his countless triumphs with the Catalan giants. FC Barcelona's 4-0 win on Saturday was reminiscent of their famous 2015-16 El Clasico triumph, where Messi, Suarez, and Neymar led the team to a similar result at the Bernabeu.
At that time, Messi had just returned from injury and entered the field with Barcelona already leading 3-0.
But Messi was not the only former FC Barcelona legend who joined the party. Neymar, who now plays for Al Hilal, also shared his emotions on social media, displaying "Visca Barca" to show his pride in the club's victory.
With Messi and Neymar cheering them on, FC Barcelona's victory was more than a victory: it was a reminder of the legacy built by these legends. Their support keeps the spirit of past triumphs alive as Barcelona navigates its way to La Liga.
