I really like Irureta's Super Depor team, and enjoyed their master-classes such as this win over Milan, teaching Arsenal a footballing lesson at Highbury in the Champions League in 2001/2002, outclassing Real Madrid in the 2002 Copa Del Rey final at the Bernabeu, the 5-2 win over Real Madrid in La Liga in 1999/2000, the win away to Bayern in 2002/2003 (admittedly Bayern sucked in the CL that season but still Depor were impressive), the 4-2 win at the Camp Nou in 2002/2003.

Did he not go to India to take up a Missionary position?
Chelsea 3-5 Manchester Utd
FA Cup 3rd Round, 1998
Chelsea scored 3 goals in the last 10 minutes to make it look closer than it was. United went 5-0 up at Stamford Bridge when Chelsea actually had a very good team.
Liverpool 3-6 Arsenal
Carling Cup, 2007
The night when Jeremie Aliadiere looked like prime Lingod and Baptista scored 4 at Anfield.

Not sure anything under 5-0 can be considered a humiliation between on paper two even matched sides, embarrassing maybe, but not humiliating unless certain players in the beaten team were shouting the odds before the game.
That last goal chip is superb
It's not just the score, but if the other team is favourite to win it.
Yeah but how many of the matches listed so far has the favourite pre-match been for use of a better word battered?
A lot of people tend to forget about Steve Nicol when they talk about Kenny's great side of the late 80's. Excelled at playing either right-back or left-back, & did a fantastic job playing as a right-sided midfielder, as, & when, required. 37 goals in 343 appearances tells it's own story about the lad's qualities. Not bad for a defender who never comprised his defensive duties for the opportunity to get forward whenever the opportunity arose. We were also blessed with 3 top class central defenders during that period with Hansen, Lawrenson, & Gillespie. The latter played a key part in that 1987/88 side that only suffered their first league defeat of the season in March.
Defoe - Lennon played like Muller - Garrincha there. Insane.
I just want to watch high-scoring game, man.
How could we not win the League that season with those players?
I strongly recommend Cricket then, you'd love that
.... or darts.

sadly, I'm not a fan of cricket. Shocking I know.Psv - Feyenoord 10-0
Amazed Man. United losing 5-0 up at Newcastle and then 6-3 at Southampton happened within 6 days of each other. Newcastle of course had a very good team in those days, Southampton avoided relegation on the last day of that season by a point.
Still won the league that season.

Thought he was an excellent player too (I like the solid players who just get on with their game and cover more than one position), just never rated Gillespie - had an ok season or two, don't think he played that many times considering how long there (injuries or ability?). Lawrenson at end of Liverpool career then.
Good season, excellent front line, tier below the teams of the 70s or early 80s or mid 80s. Conversely, one of the Liverpool teams I was 'ok' with though (results aside).
OH MY GAWD! This time in the proper thread.
this was quite embarrassing as well
That 1-4 doesn't sit in the same list for me. The others were absolutely deserved thrashings, the 1-4 was a bizarre game where we were on top in the first half I remember correctly, and then Evra and Vidic decided to make what were close to their only errors of the season, and suddenly we were on the wrong end of what looked, but didn't actually play out like a drubbing.
Two words - Cantona ban.
Didn't a full strength Barca lose 4-0 to Getafe in the cup one or have I made that up?
MK Don's 4-0 vs United

If I remember correctly, we also lost 2-1 at home to Chelsea, making it 3 defeats in a row.
The Newcastle 5-0 was just a whitewashing, but the Southampton one should be filed in a different box entirely.
For starters we had Keane sent off very early, and I believe Butt also went off injured.
Meaning we had a near the end of his career McClair trundling around as our centre mid, and obviously 10 men.
So that one wasn't quite the battering the Newcastle one was to me.
We'd kept Newcastle out amazingly the season before, whereas this time everything went in.
LVG sold Evans is a mistake!
Many mistakes by both Evan's and Keane aswell in that video in itself.
Award of Most Humiliating Defeat = Totally Destroyed goes to.. surely "the 7-1"?
Biggest stage, host and at home.
The "consolation" goal they pulled one back I felt the German players just leave it be freely.

The 5-0 at Newcastle still burns my chest a little bit. Albert’s fifth goal is the final insult. A total, mocking disrespect of the greatest goalkeeper to ever live.
Ireland losing 1-6 to Germany spring to mind. Awful Irish performance.

I can’t look beyond that World Cup Semifinal between Brazil & Germany. I mean it was 5-0 within 25 minutes in front of thousands of Brazilians dressed in bright yellow.
I still enjoy watching it now. I think it was Keown laying into David Luiz on commentary forhis display.

Seminal match.
Real were much more in the game than the scoreline implies. They were the better team for various spells, but lost their composure while Milan were absolutely ruthless at the other end, and by the end of the game were completely broken. Part of what contributed to losing their heads was their total bamboozlement over Milan’s super-aggressive offside trap and high line. Butregueno seemed to be permanently offside. And compounded by the compactness of Sacchi’s tactics which were fairly new to the game and forced Real into more hopeful balls over the top. It was the game that propelled Baresi into the top tier amongst the all time greats as his mastery over both teams was so all encompassing.
The second half was a drubbing. We were lucky it didn't end with 1-6.
Currently streaming the 2010/11 CL final between us and Barcelona. The difference in class was staggering. They killed us. It painful looking but I can't stop myself from watching it.
When Everton beat us 4-0 I felt pretty humiliated.
I thought the same for years in fairness.
Bayern regularly destroy Dortmund at home:
19/20: 4-0
18/19: 5-0
17/18: 6-0
16/17: 4-1
15/16: 5-1
Hamburg is even worse in away games against Bayern, they should just stay home next time.
17/18: 8-0
16/17: 6-0
15/16: 5-0
14/15: 8-0
12/13: 9-2
19/20: 4-0
18/19: 5-0
17/18: 6-0

Totally destroyed by Dwight Gayle. I consider this a defeat.
