Sports Desk: The night gets longer when the opponent advances at the Santiago Bernabeu. Everyone saw it last Wednesday night in Europe. Real Madrid scored 5 goals after Borussia Dortmund went into the break leading 2-0. Then, in just a few days, a gentleman from Dortmund showed the other side of the coin. He explained that it is possible to play football in the Bernabeu if you want.
In the first half he was caught offside. Real's attacking side is stuck in it or in the lot. At the end of the break, after 56 minutes of the match, the night started to get longer for Real! As if the last whistle is late, the danger will increase! After leading 2-0 in 56 minutes, it was 4-0 in 84 minutes!
No, this time Real could not return those magical nights at the Bernabeu. Instead, Carlo Ancelotti's team accepted all the magic of Ube Bosch in the design of the German "Ozha" Hansi Flick. You know to whom. Barcelona fans should be laughing by now. This 4-0 win in the Clasico is not only a victory for Barca, but also the joy of having breakfast in front of the home of their arch-rivals. Gold can be added as a gift, also the glory of scoring 4 goals in one half of the Clasico away from home after 65 years. On June 7, 1959, Barca scored 4 goals in the Clasico, at the Bernabeu and in the second half.
Robert Lewandowski scored two goals after the first half was scoreless. The Polish striker is not happy about that. One hit the post, the other over the crossbar. Both are easy opportunities. 54 to 56, Real fell behind 2-0 to Leva in this three-minute storm. Then Lamine Yamal in the 77th minute and captain Rafinha in the 84th minute to complete Barca's 16th birthday. But Kylian Mbappe is supposed to be more upset than Lewa. Poor thing!
He netted twice on his Clásico debut today. But in Flick's highline defense, Pata was never caught in the offside trap. Mbappe's disappointment does not end here. Barca goalkeeper Inaki Pena also blocked three of his shots in one-on-one. At least two of these shots could have been goals. The words of Pena's determination, however, also come to the topic of the determination of the whole team of Barca.
6 players in Barca's XI were under 22 years of age. Something that has not been seen in the last 108 years of Clasico. Despite having fast opponents like Mbappe and Vinicius, Barca coach Flick actually won by showing the courage to play in the highline defense and arrange the XI with confidence in youth.
Carlo Ancelotti's defense also rose to the highline defense for a few moments shortly after the start of the second half. In that opportunity, 21-year-old defensive midfielder Mark Casado gave Leva a through pass in the 54th minute. Real goalkeeper Andrey Lunin was alone and Laver had no difficulty in scoring. A minute later, the Polish star scored again with a superb header from a cross from the left side. This time the passer is a 21-year-old, Alejandro Balde. Leva scored 14 goals in 11 matches and is the highest scorer in the league so far. Scored the 17th goal of the season.
About 9 minutes after the second goal, Leva hit the post after finding Lunin alone from Rafinia's pass. Just a minute before that, Mbappe's Konakuni shot was disallowed for offside.
But in the 77th minute, Lamine Yamal's right foot shot changed the score line. The record book has changed too. The Barca star scored from the right after receiving Rafinha's pass. At 17 years and 105 days, Yamal is now the youngest goalscorer in Clasico history, breaking Ansu Fati's record. Rafinha scored the last goal of the match with a lob after 7 minutes, but his first against Real.
In the first half, Flick's highline defense caught Real offside 8 times. Only Mbappe was offside 6 times, that too 4 times in 20 minutes of the match. All four times there were clear goal chances. His goal was disallowed in the 31st minute by this offside trap with a great finish. Mbappe has been caught offside by Barca coach Flick a total of 8 times in the two halves, which is the highest in a single match in his career.
With this loss, Real could not reach the record of being undefeated in 43 consecutive matches made by Barca in La Liga. The last loss was on September 23 last year, after a 42-game unbeaten run. Couldn't even catch Barca in the points table. Flick's Barca is on top with a total of 30 points from 10 wins in 11 matches. 7 wins and 3 draws in equal matches with a total of 24 points, Real is two. The difference with the third viral is 3 points. However, the gap of 6 points with Barca is enough to make Ancelotti sleepless.
