Remember when Gareth Bale ate Maicon's lunch in the Spurs-Inter game a few years ago?
He's just done it again in the Copa del Rey final, riding out a clear and blatant foul from Marc Bartra to outrun him like he was standing still and score the winner.
Since last Wednesday Barca have gone out of the Champions League, lost to Grenada in la Liga and then lost the cup final to their biggest rivals. Not a great seven days there.

"What's a shork, for Christ's sake? A fuckin' midget with a dorsal fin? Was he on Ellen during Freak Week? Quit lookin' at me like that. What are you, a bouncer from a salad bar?"
