Those led by Hansi Flick showed a brilliant game that allowed them to consolidate themselves at the top of the table with 30 points, six more than their historic rival, who was left with 24. Real Madrid had a more promising start, with Vinicius Jr as the protagonist on the left wing, creating danger for the Blaugrana defense and, together with Julián Mbappé, they managed to get close to Iñaki Peña’s goal on several occasions. However, the lack of precision and several plays canceled due to offside prevented the Merengues from realizing their options. At 20′, Vinicius had one of the clearest chances, but his shot went wide after a cut in the area.
The game changed direction in the second half. In the 53rd minute, Marc Casadó broke Madrid’s defensive line with a precise pass, allowing Robert Lewandowski to open the scoring by finishing against Andriy Lunin.
Just a few minutes later, a cross from Alejandro Balde was headed in by the Polish striker, making it 2-0 and plunging the Bernabéu into silence. Madrid tried to respond, and in the 65th minute Mbappé scored a goal that was again disallowed by out of place. From there, Barcelona took advantage of the spaces and extended the advantage. Lewandowski and Raphinha wove a play that culminated with Lamine Yamal pushing the ball to the near post to make it 3-0.
Finally, a long pass from Íñigo Martínez left Raphinha alone in front of Lunin, and the Brazilian scored with a touch over the goalkeeper, making it 4-0. After 11 rounds, Barcelona leads with a six-point advantage over Madrid, establishing himself as one of the favorites for the title. Although there is still a way to go in LaLiga, the Culés have given a coup of authority that will mark this classic in the memory of the fans.
