Barcelona crushes Real Madrid at the Bernabéu
Barcelona secured a resounding 4-0 victory over Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in the 11th round of La Liga. The Catalan side dominated the match from the outset, showcasing a notable superiority in both possession and creating goal-scoring opportunities.
The first half was marked by a disallowed goal for PSG due to offside and a yellow card for Barcelona’s M. Casado. However, the second half was a goal-scoring feast for the visitors.
Lewandowski opened the scoring in the 54th minute and scored his second goal just two minutes later, both with assists from Casado and Balde respectively. The third goal came in the 77th minute, courtesy of L. Yamal, who finished off a brilliant play by Raphinha. Finally, the Brazilian sealed the victory with a goal in the 84th minute, assisted by I. Martinez.
