After this victory, Real Madrid raised its points to 27 at the top of the table, while Barcelona's score remained at 22 in second place, making the points difference 5 between the rivals.

The early moments of the match were very exciting, as the referee awarded a penalty kick in favor of Vinicius Junior, but then returned to video technology in the 4th minute and canceled the decision after reviewing the footage. In the 8th minute, Lamine Yamal tried to open the scoring with a powerful shot from outside the penalty area, but it went wide of Courtois' goal.

In the 13th minute, Kylian Mbappe scored a goal that was disallowed by the referee for offside, before the French star returned to score a legitimate goal in the 22nd minute assisted by Bellingham.

In the 38th minute, Barcelona equalized through Fermín López after a pass from Rashford.

At the beginning of the second half, the referee awarded a penalty kick after consulting video technology for a handball by Eric Garcia. Kylian Mbappe took the penalty, but Szczęsny saved it in the 52nd minute. After that, Barcelona dominated possession while Real Madrid players retreated to their areas.

The minutes passed with attempts from both teams but without real danger, and in the 87th minute, Mbappe nearly added a second goal but his shot went wide.
