Lamine Yamal Breaks 77-Year El Clasico Record Against Real Madrid

Barcelona interrupted Real Madrid’s 42-game La Liga unbeaten streak and took a six-point lead at the top of the table in Saturday’s El Clasico.

After a tight first half in which Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe had a goal disallowed for offside, Barcelona dominated in the second half, scoring four times.

Robert Lewandowski started the scoring in the 56th minute with a perfect effort from outside the area, and two minutes later, he headed in another from Alejandro Balde’s cross.

Lamine Yamal, 17, added to the tally in the 77th minute, becoming El Clasico’s youngest goalscorer aged 17 years and 105 days.

He broke Alfonso Navarro’s 1947 record.

Raphinha closed the scoring with a lobbed finish after a pass from Inigo Martinez, securing a historic win for Hansi Flick in his first El Clasico as Barcelona’s manager.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti, also missed the chance to equal Barcelona’s 43-match unbeaten record in La Liga and become the first to guide Real to three consecutive El Clasico home wins since 1991.
