Barcelona delivered a stellar performance at the Santiago Bernabéu, defeating Real Madrid in a stunning fashion. The game opened with Barcelona asserting dominance through relentless pressing, forcing mistakes from Madrid’s defense. Within the first 10 minutes, Barça went up by two goals—thanks to an impressive assist from Casadó that allowed Robert Lewandowski to finish past Lunin, and a brilliant cross from Alejandro Balde that Lewandowski headed home perfectly.
Madrid responded by pushing forward, and Mbappé had a golden opportunity around the hour mark. However, a fantastic save by Barça’s keeper, Peña, kept Madrid from scoring. As Real Madrid left spaces open, Barcelona had multiple counter-attack chances, though Lewandowski missed two clear opportunities to seal his hat-trick.

However, Frenkie de Jong helped stabilize Barça’s midfield, allowing them brief moments to reset. With 15 minutes remaining, Barcelona struck again as Raphinha set up young Lamine Yamal, who scored with his right foot to make it 3-0.
Raphinha later added his own goal with a beautiful lob over Lunin, courtesy of a long pass from Iñigo Martínez, capping off a night to remember. The final whistle confirmed a memorable 4-0 victory for Barça at the Bernabéu, showcasing their best performance of the season and silencing any lingering doubts.
