A triplet of Luis Suarez and singles by Philippe Coutinho and Arturo Vidal enabled Barcelona to beat Real Madrid 5-1 on Sunday in the first Liga El Clásico of 2018/19.

Before the match, there was a lot of talk about who was not playing rather than who was on. It was the first El Clásico since Cristian Ronaldo and Lionel Messi since 2009/10. Ronaldo makes a summer move to Juventus; Messi is injured in the arm last weekend.

In the absence of Messi, Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde opted for a slight change in approach. Ousmane Dembélé might have started without his apparent problem of appearance to arrive at the time.

Instead, Valverde started Rafinha on the right and Coutinho on the left side of the tight midfielder trio of Busquets, Rakitic and Arthur. This left Suarez as the only striker.

Valverde's approach allowed Barcelona to control the midfield with fast and clear passes, but occasional long, decisive passes once again affected Real Madrid.

Example? Barcelona's first goal put an end to 30 assists that put Real Madrid out of position before giving the advantage to left-back Jordi Alba. Coutinho was easily overtaken by Alba. Suarez's acceleration to Real Madrid's net has created this extra essential court for Coutinho.

The second goal of Barcelona came after the call of VAR (Video Assistant Referee). Madrid defender Varane has come into conflict with Suarez. After the referee had reviewed the recovery, he kicked a repair. Suarez scored to bring the score to 2-0 after just 30 minutes.

At half-time, there was no sign of Real Madrid's revenge. Whether it was a tactical decision or an injury, Varane, who struggled through the first 45 minutes, did not finish in the second half.

Lopetegui decided to go from one defense to four instead of three and push further back left Marcello. Suddenly, Real Madrid became alive.

The Barcelona midfielder was disappearing quickly and all the passes played in front left Suarez without support. The complexion of the game changed completely and when Marcelo scored five minutes after the start of the second half, we felt that the momentum was in favor of Real Madrid and that it was no longer a lost cause .

Shortly after, Modric hit the Barcelona goalpost, and then Karim Benzema missed an equal opportunity for the possibility of missing a header. A head coming from only a few meters.

Clearly, Valverde had seen enough and the two replacements he had made – 69 minutes and 74 minutes – were essential to reigniting the game in favor of Barcelona.

Rafinha and Coutinho left and Semedo and Dembélé offered new legs and energy. Equally important, the introduction of Semedo allowed Valverde to take Sergi Roberto to the middle of the field. His prodigious pace of work and selfless play immediately bore fruit.

Sergi Roberto scored Suarez for his second goal, 14-yard lead. It was the additional assistance of Sergi Roberto (who defeated Sergio Ramos) who scored the goal of Suarez who gave Barcelona a 4-1 lead.

Ousmane Dembélé developed his substitute compatriot Arturo Vidal for the fifth goal, but that was just the icing on the cake.

Real Madrid made such a poor start to the season that a defender and a Real Madrid victory might not have been enough to save Julen Lopetegui's job.

The only decision that remains seems to be when will it be returned.
