Barcelona vs Real Madrid La Liga Highlights: FC Barcelona beat Real Madrid 4-3 in high-stakes El Clasico
Barcelona vs Real Madrid La Liga Live Score: Barcelona staged a sensational comeback to defeat Real Madrid 4-3 in a thrilling El Clasico on Sunday, moving within touching distance of the La Liga title. Despite a hat-trick from Kylian Mbappe, goals from Raphinha (2), Lamine Yamal, and Eric Garcia sealed a crucial victory for the Catalan side, who now lead Madrid by seven points with three matches remaining.
Madrid started strong with Mbappe scoring twice in the opening 15 minutes, including a penalty and a sharp finish from a Vinicius Junior assist. But Barcelona responded with spirit and flair. Garcia’s header from a corner got them back into the game, before Yamal curled in a brilliant equaliser.
Raphinha then took over, scoring a brace to give Barcelona a 4-2 lead. Mbappe completed his hat-trick in the second half, but his other two goals were ruled out for offside, and Barcelona held firm despite late Madrid pressure.
The result puts Hansi Flick’s side on the verge of their first league title since 2023. If Real Madrid drop points against Mallorca on Wednesday, Barcelona could be crowned champions. It was their fourth Clasico win in a row, underscoring their dominance this season.

Barcelona vs Real Madrid Live Score: Barcelona's injury woes easing ahead of crucial clash
Barcelona received a timely boost with left-back Alejandro Balde and midfielder Marc Casado declared fit ahead of the Clasico. Balde had missed the Inter game due to a thigh issue, while Casado had been sidelined for nearly two months with a knee ligament injury.
Lewandowski also returned to action briefly in Milan and may feature off the bench.
Flick, however, hinted that none of the three are expected to start, opting instead for full-strength options with match fitness. Their availability, though, adds depth and options for a high-stakes match.
