Real Madrid started the match in style with Kylian Mbappe scoring an outrageous goal 5 minutes into the game. Their glimmer turned into grimmer as soon as Yamine Lamal leveled the game in the 22nd minute.
Barcelona netted thrice again in the first half to take over the game through Robert Lewandowski, Rafinha, and Alejandro Balde. While Levendowski converted from the spot in the 36th minute, Rafinha’s goal came 3 minutes later. Balde netted in the extra time of the first half. When the first half was done, it seemed like Real Madrid was already done with the game, as they had been looking too hopeless ever since.
Rafinha roared again as the Brazilian found the net in the 4th minute to put the match to bed. In the 56th minute, Barca goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny saw a straight red card after tackling Kylian Mbappé in the penalty area. The 10-man Barcelona soon conceded the goal when Rodrygo scored a brilliant freekick in the 60th minute. That was it for Real Madrid. For the rest of the game, the mighty Whites were seen struggling to strategize and score against a 10-man team.
It’s the second consecutive time that Real Madrid are losing to Barcelona. Their next encounter will be held on May 11 in La Liga when the two teams go head-to-head at the Barcelona Olympic Stadium.
