Real Madrid vs Barcelona Highlights, La Liga: Real Madrid win 2-1 against Barcelona thanks to goals from Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham; Red card for Pedri
Real Madrid vs Barcelona Highlights, La Liga: Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 in a tense El Clásico at the Santiago Bernabéu, moving five points ahead at the top of La Liga. Jude Bellingham scored the decisive goal before halftime, giving Xabi Alonso his first major win against Barcelona and ending the Catalan side’s winning streak in last season’s clashes.
Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring after Bellingham threaded a precise pass, but Barcelona hit back through Fermin López in the 38th minute, assisted by Marcus Rashford. Bellingham responded just five minutes later, finishing from close range after Eder Militao’s nod found him, giving Madrid a 2-1 lead that proved decisive.
Barcelona dominated possession for much of the first half but struggled to create clear opportunities. Madrid were more effective on the break, although VAR overturned an early penalty for Real and disallowed a goal from Mbappé for a tight offside. Later, a penalty awarded to Madrid following Eric Garcia’s handball was denied by a strong save from goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.
Barcelona were missing several key players, including Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, and Dani Olmo. Lamine Yamal, returning from a groin injury, was lively but struggled to make a meaningful impact. Madrid substitutes Rodrygo Goes and Brahim Diaz helped the hosts maintain control as the game neared its conclusion, while Barcelona had limited attacking options.
In the final moments, Pedri was shown a second yellow card for a late foul on Aurelien Tchouameni, sparking minor skirmishes on the sidelines after the whistle. The result marks Madrid’s ninth win in ten league games this season, highlighting their ability to perform in high-pressure matches and deliver results against top rivals.
