Barcelona captain Carles Puyol was surprised with 5-0 win over Real Madrid on Monday night. "I didn't expect a thrashing like that. But when you least expect it, it can happen. Now we need to enjoy this victory. "We had a very complete game and played very well. We started very aggressively, playing our football and everything went perfectly," he was quoted as saying on PA Sport. Puyol also played down the incident at the end ofu00a0 'El Clasico' which saw Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos confront him and Xavi following his late sending off. Ramos was shown a straight red card after scything down Lionel Messi in the 90th minute of Madrid's 5-0 defeat at the Nou Camp, and in the ensuing fracas between the rival teams Ramos put his hands into the faces of Barca duo Puyol and Xavi as they remonstrated with him. However, Puyol, who was pushed to the floor by his fellow Spain international, made light of the incident, saying in AS: "These things happen in a game of football. I've gone to defend a teammate of mine because it seemed a very tough tackle."
