#3 FC Barcelona 6-2 Real Madrid CF
On 2nd May 2009, the stage was set for a league classic. The league title was supposedly at stake, and the pressure was supposed to be immense. The game that ensued, though, was nothing like what anyone had expected. It was a classic all right, but it can be safe to assume we won't be hearing too much about it at the Bernabeu for a pretty long time.
The game started off with the Merengues on top during the opening exchanges, leading to them grabbing the first goal courtesy of a Gonzalo Higuain header. What followed, however, was a comprehensive humbling of the Real Madrid outfit, with Guardiola's Barcelona teaching their eternal rivals a footballing lesson.
As always, Puyol was never one to be too far away from the action. He put in an immense performance for the Blaugrana, helping tip the scales in their favour after conceding an early goal.
Puyol marked the performance by scoring a crucial goal to give Barca a 2-1 lead in the 20th minute of the tie, and from then on, Barcelona never looked back. Kissing the armband during his celebration, it showcased his undying passion and love for the club, and the image will be frozen in the minds of Culés forever.
