Barcelona run wild as winners. Madrid embarrassed Clásico.

Real Madrid's unbeaten streak of 42 LaLiga games came to an end on Saturday, with Barcelona winning El Clásico 4-0 in Madrid.



All eyes were on the Santiago Bernabéu as two Spanish giants faced off once more. However, during these 90 minutes of action, one team executed their game plan perfectly while the other remained uncomfortable in their own backyard.

Real Madrid should have opened the scoring in the first half, but they were the architects of their own defeat. Seven offside calls were made against the hosts in the first 45 minutes, six of which were against Kylian Mbappé.

Looking for his first Clásico goal, the superstar summer signing was often thwarted by Barcelona's strong defensive line. Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham took up the offensive burden in the absence of the injured Rodrygo, although neither performed to their full potential.

Meanwhile, in a second half of full Blaugrana dominance, Hansi Flick's men kept their cool and won this Hollywood fixture.

Barcelona, who can now consider themselves the offside-trip kings of Europe, kept composed and knew their opportunity would come. Then two did it in less than two minutes to startle Madrid.

Madrid, who were dull and disoriented for the final half hour, lost a third and fourth after Mbappé's potential score was called offside once more.

Lamine Yamal broke Ansu Fati's record for the youngest goal scorer in Clásico history when he rifled home at the near post for 3-0. An in-form Raphinha then guaranteed Barcelona walked away laughing when he dinked Lunin, while Lucas Vázquez's attempt to clear the ball resulted in him colliding with the netting.

As a result, Flick's side now leads the reigning champions by six points in the rankings.
