Barcelona’s losing run against Real Madrid finally ended Sunday as the Catalan club enjoyed a stunning 4-0 win at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium and showed its title hopes in the Spanish league may not be over yet.
Barcelona kept its recent momentum going under coach Xavi Hernández in the last “clásico” of the season. The win ended Barcelona’s five-match losing streak to its rival and maintained an outside chance of fighting for the title after a difficult start to its first season without Lionel Messi.
The victory was its first against Madrid since 2019 and came in style — like a few others Barcelona enjoyed with Messi in his prime.
