4:0 victory in the Clasico
El Clásico: Real vs Barcelona from 9pm LIVE
A wipe-out for Real Madrid! The "royals" were beaten 4-0 by FC Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday evening. The win in the Clasico saw coach Hansi Flick's Catalans extend their lead over their arch-rivals in the league to six points.
Lewandowski put the visitors ahead with a double strike within 141 seconds. First the Pole scored with a low shot into the right corner (54'), shortly afterwards the striker headed in his 14th league goal of the season (56'). Lewandowski missed out on a hat-trick a little later on when he hit the ball against the far post with an empty goal in sight (66').
Young star Lamine Yamal made the difference with a shot into the far corner (77') and Raphinha, who was outstanding in the 4-1 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League, scored the final goal with a lob (84').

Mbappe goals don't count
On the other side, goalscorer Kylian Mbappe was unlucky. The 25-year-old Frenchman scored two goals (30th, 66th), but both were correctly disallowed for offside. Mbappe was denied by Barca goalkeeper Iñaki Peña on several excellent occasions.
After 42 league games without defeat, the last of which was on September 24, 2023, Real Madrid thus left the pitch as losers for the first time.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti's madridistas were still missing ÖFB star David Alaba and captain Dani Carvajal through injury, while goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and striker Rodrygo were also absent. It was Barca's first win in a clash between arch-rivals after four defeats in a row.
