The Catalan giants were undoubtedly the best club in the world during the 2009/10 season. They had won the La Liga and UEFA Champions League titles during the 09/10 season. Also, quite a few members of their squad played a huge role in Spain’s 2010 World Cup triumph.

They played against the newly-promoted Hercules in a La Liga fixture in 2010. When everyone thought it could just be a walk in the park for the Blaugrana, the defending champions suffered a humiliating 2-0 defeat at the Camp Nou, their first La Liga defeat at home since May 2009.

Nelson Valdez was the star of the show for Hercules at the Camp Nou. He scored the opener in the 27th minute and made it 2-0 just before the hour. This was one of Barcelona’s worst defeats at home.
