Barcelona played as an undefeated team in this year's La Liga, but they lost some rhythm by drawing in the last two matches.

In the 19th minute of the match, Iniesta came up with the ball from midfield and gave a quick pass to Neymar. A brilliant shot from Neymar slipped between the legs of two Madrid defenders and into the net. Neymar's debut goal roared the whole stadium!
Soon after, in the 22nd minute, Messi had a chance to take the record for most goals in El Clasico, but the ball hit the goalkeeper's body and went out of bounds.
In the last minute of the first half, Ronaldo's cross found Sammy Khedira in the box, but Barca goalkeeper Victor Valdez blocked it with his knee with extraordinary skill. However, in the first half, the number of goals would have increased if Neymar's few attacking attempts with Lionel Messi in front of Real's D box had not failed.
In the 57th minute of the second half, Real goalkeeper Diego Lopes saved the traveling team by stopping Neymar's strong shot. After three minutes, Ronaldo took a shot on goal from Luka Mordic's cross, but Valdez blocked it.
In the 74th minute, French star Karim Benzema's strong shot hit the crossbar and Real Madrid had to burn again in despair. After that, Barcelona confirmed the victory with Alexis Sanchez's goal after replacing Cess Fabregas. In the 78th minute, the striker scored a spectacular goal by chipping over the head of Lopes, who came out of the goal line after catching Neymar's extended ball.
In this victory, the current champion Barcelona is at the top with 28 points in 10 games. Atletico Madrid is number two with 24 points in 9 games. And Real is number three with 22 points in 10 games.
