Barcelona defeats Real Madrid in high-scoring El Clasíco, overcomes Kylian Mbappé's hat trick
In a high-scoring edition of the iconic El Clasíco matchup, Barcelona took a 4-3 win over Real Madrid despite a hat trick from Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé. Barcelona has ruled the rivalry lately, defeating Real Madrid four times this season starting with a 4-0 La Liga victory in October. Subsequent victories in the Supercopa de España and Copa del Rey further proved Barcelona's dominance this year. Mbappé struck first with an early penalty kick in the fifth minute after an ill-timed tackle gave him a chance from the spot. He struck again in the 14th minute off an excellent assist from Vinícius Júnior. Barcelona answered when defender Eric Garcia struck first in the 19th minute, followed by three Barça goals in less than 15 minutes: one from 17-year-old phenom Lamine Yamal in the 32nd minute, and then two from Raphinha after 34 and 45 minutes. LAMINE YAMAL AND RAPHINHA BOTH SCORE WITHIN TWO MINUTES OF EACH OTHER TO COMPLETELY TURN ELCLÁSICO AROUND FOR BARCA! 3-2! 😱 — ESPN FC (@ESPNFC) May 11, 2025 Mbappé came back with another in the 70th minute to bring the score to 4-3, completing his hat trick. But Real Madrid couldn't break through Barcelona's defense, as goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny made multiple key saves to hold the lead. Barcelona midfielder Fermín Lopez nearly made it 5-3 in stoppage time, but his goal was called back due to a handball in the run-up. Barcelona instead settled for a one-goal victory, and El Clasíco bragging rights for another year. Barcelona is currently at the top of the La Liga standings with 82 points, while Real Madrid sits in second with 75. With three matches remaining in the regular season, Barcelona needs only one win to secure the La Liga title.
