FC Barcelona visited the Santiago Bernabéu to face Real Madrid in the Clásico corresponding to matchday 11 of LaLiga EA Sports 2024-2025. The team led by Hansi Flick achieved a historic victory that confirms the change of cycle in Spain. Robert Lewandowski, Lamine Yamal and Raphinha led a 'dance' to remember at the Madrid fiefdom and managed to distance themselves to 6 points in the standings.
Both teams were involved in a constant back and forth in the first 45 minutes. The Merengues sought to punish the Blaugranas' advanced line with some inconsequential Kylian Mbappé and Vini Jr., who could barely do any damage to the Catalans despite the Frenchman scoring a goal in clear offside.
For their part, the Catalans relied on Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal, who were a headache for the home team's defence, although they were unable to open the scoring before the break.
Barça confirmed the change of cycle in the second half
Upon returning from the changing rooms, 'Lewy', unquestionably the best '9' in the world, started the 'beating' of the Blaugranas with a double in just two minutes. The Whites tried to react, but a catastrophic Mbappé got past Iñaki Peña's 'wall' on a couple of occasions. Finally, Lamine and Raphinha put the final 'nails' in the coffin and sealed a rout that will go down in the history of the Clásicos.
Amid the boos of their fans, Carlo Ancelotti's supporters, who in other circumstances would have been fired in the dressing room, joined the victims of a Barça team that, under the orders of Hansi Flick, has confirmed the beginning of the new 'era' in Spain. The Catalans already have 30 points out of a possible 33 and look down on their rivals from far above, beginning to assume their role as the best team on the continent.
