Did Barcelona star Luis Suarez predict his El Clasico hat-trick three days before the game?
Uruguayan hit-man scored a terrific trio to down Los Blancos and surely seal under-fire Julen Lopetegui's fate
LUIS SUAREZ scored a stunning hat-trick as Barcelona routed Real Madrid 5-1 in yesterday's El Clasico... but did he predict the feat three days earlier?
The Uruguayan hit-man, 31, ripped Los Blancos to shreds at the Nou Camp to surely seal the fate of under-fire boss Julen Lopetegui.
Incredibly, the former Liverpool star appeared to call his shot 72 hours before in an interview with Barcelona TV.
Suarez was asked: "Would you rather score a hat-trick or a last-minute goal?"
The ex-Liverpool star hesitated before replying: "A hat-trick."
Barcelona shared the hilarious clip on their Twitter, complete with the "deal with it" meme.
They captioned the post: "...and @LuisSuarez9 did just that."
Suarez scored his fifth, sixth and seventh Barca goals of the season in yesterday's game - to go with strikes from Philippe Coutinho and Arturo Vidal.
Marcelo scored one in consolation for Real, who now sit a lowly NINTH in La Liga, seven points adrift of league-leading Barcelona.
During the game, Suarez revealed a shirt dedicated to newborn son Lautaro following his first goal from the penalty spot on the half-hour mark.
