Match Highlights as Barcelona completed a magnificent comeback at Real Madrid

Hansi Flick’s side hit an early setback when Kylian Mbappé put Real Madrid ahead in the 5th minute with a sharp finish.

Then, the Catalan side pull an amazing comeback:

• Lamine Yamal equalized in the 22nd minute with a clinical strike.
• Robert Lewandowski converted a penalty in the 36th minute to give Barcelona the lead.
• Raphinha added two goals (39’, 48’), while Alejandro Balde scored in first-half injury time (45’+10).

Rodrygo scored a late goal, but Los Blancos’ response was a little too late. Real Madrid’s forward scored in the 60th minute when Wojciech Szczesny committed a foul led to his red card in the 57th minute. The Brazilian’s goal could not save his side from another disappointing El Clasico.
