Barcelona's El Clasico victory over Real Madrid was an amazing result, topped off with a fantastic goal from Lamine Yamal. With few opportunities at either end of the field, the first half in Madrid did not get the heart pounding between the two La Liga rivals.
Barcelona's visitors had a different tale in the second half as they easily won their first league game at Real Madrid since 2022. The game was completely changed by veteran striker Robert Lewandowski, who startled the hosts with two lethal goals in two minutes. Real Madrid maintained a two-goal advantage until 77 minutes when Lamine Yamal's incredible drive put an end to a lethal match.
When Spanish teenager Lamine Yamal scored in the 77th minute to give Barcelona a 3-0 lead against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday, he became the youngest goal scorer in El Clasico history. In men's football, he broke Ansu Fati's record, and in women's football, he broke Vicky Lopez's. When Fati scored against Real Madrid, he was 17 years and 358 days old, while Vicky was 17 years and 116 days old. In contrast, Yamal scored the third goal against Barca's bitter rival in the Spanish capital at the age of 17 years and 106 days.

Barcelna leads the La Liga
Raphinha then added the fourth goal in the 84th minute to complete the victory. Now, the Brazilian winger is playing at his peak after scoring a hat-trick against Bayern Munich in the Champions League midweek. One of Barcelona's greatest El Clasico triumphs ever occurred in the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, when they won 4-0 with ease.
Real Madrid sought to match the record established by Barcelona between April 2017 and May 2018 by extending their league-winning streak to 43 games. Barcelona now leads the standings by six points after Lamine Yamal fulfilled his goal of making a significant difference. With 30 points from 10 wins, 0 draws, and 1 loss, Barcelona is now leading La Liga. While Real Madrid's injury problems are affecting the depth of the team, causing them to drop six points.
