The hit of Sunday’s La Liga program was El Clásico, in which Real Madrid faced Barcelona. The home side, who had lost twice, were happy about the win, but in the end they turned the game around and almost certainly have the title in their pocket.
Christensen had the first chance of the match in the sixth minute, who also scored. Raphinha’s cross was not reached by goalkeeper Lunin, who jumped the ball and the Danish stopper had no problem heading the ball into the net.
Shortly after that, Vinícius had a chance to equalize, but he headed just over the goal. Barcelona came close to increasing their lead in the 14th minute, but Yamal was caught brilliantly by Lunin.
The 18th minute already offered the second goal, Vinícius leveled the game with a precise shot and Real was chasing victory again. Instead, however, Barcelona took the lead back to their side, whose players did not rejoice for a long time, as the referee canceled the goal after consultation with the video.
At the end of the first half, Real threatened Gundogan with a free kick, but his shot went just wide. The first half ended 1:1 and according to the course of the match, it was clear that another interesting match awaits us.
In the 58th minute, Barcelona hoped for a penalty, but the referee did not consider the tackle on Fermín illegal. However, it was Fermín who fired Barcelona into the lead in the 69th minute, and the fans believed in a valuable win.
But everything was different. A few minutes later, Vinícius found a free Vázquez and he didn’t give Ter Stegen the slightest chance with his shot. The German goalkeeper still prevented Real’s leading goal in the 78th minute, but the Catalans still didn’t get a point.
In the set-up, Vázquez found Joselu, who released the ball to Bellingham and the English midfielder did not hesitate. Real Madrid won the derby 3:2 and thanks to that, the title is almost certainly in their pocket. The lead over Barcelona is already 11 points.
