El Clásico: See every goal from Real Madrid’s 3-1 win over Barcelona

Real Madrid is at the top of La Liga after a win in El Clásico.

For the first time since 2008, Real Madrid earned a second consecutive La Liga win over Barcelona in the latest edition of El Clásico. Needing a victory to stay at the top of La Liga this weekend, Real Madrid took control of the game in the second half after a wild open that saw both teams score inside of 10 minutes.

Federico Valverde gave the visitors an early lead in the fifth minute, when he was picked out making an incisive run down the middle with a great pass from Karim Benzema. Valverde took one touch to carry the ball into the penalty area, and then blasted a shot past goalkeeper Neto.

Barcelona answered immediately with an equalizer from Ansu Fati. The 17-year-old finished a cross from Jordi Alba at close range, leaving Thibaut Courtois little chance to make a save.

VAR awarded Real Madrid a penalty in the second half, as Barcelona’s Clement Lenglet was ruled to be holding Sergio Ramos as a ball was crossed into the area. Once the review was completed, Ramos converted from the spot.

Luka Modric sealed the win with a spectacular goal for Real Madrid, making Neto stumble in the penalty area with a dribbling move before side-footing a shot into a gaping net.
