Mbappe overshadowed by Lewandowski, Real Madrid lost heavily to Barcelona

Real Madrid and Barcelona - the two teams at the top of the La Liga standings before round 11 - created a match with many goals and a score that could surprise many people. Despite playing at home, Real Madrid was defeated 4-0 by their rivals.

Robert Lewandowski was the main character, creating the turning point of the match. The Polish striker scored 2 goals in the 54th and 56th minutes to help Barcelona take the lead. In both situations, the Real Madrid defenders chose their positions and marked their players very poorly.

After Lewandowski's brilliance, it was Raphinha's turn to make his mark. The Brazilian star assisted Lamine Yamal and then scored himself to seal a 4-0 victory for Barcelona.

Real Madrid deserved to lose this match. In the first half, despite maintaining a score of 0-0, the home team only had 41.5% ball possession, and only had 1 shot (off target). Meanwhile, Barcelona had 6 shots, 2 of which were on target.

Kylian Mbappe had 25 touches, the fewest of any player who played the full match. The Frenchman scored against Barcelona in the first half but was ruled offside. He had to wait until the second half to get his next shot. All three of Mbappe's shots were on target but not hard enough to beat the Barcelona goalkeeper.

Barcelona also missed many chances, and the danger of these plays was even more obvious than Real Madrid's. Lewandowski almost had a third goal but his shot in front of an open goal hit the post.

A 4-0 win over Real Madrid helped Barcelona extend the gap with their rivals to 6 points. Coach Hansi Flick's team still tops the La Liga standings with 30 points after 10 wins and 1 defeat.
