Barcelona in Stunning Comeback, Overcome Real Madrid 4-3

In a thrilling encounter on Sunday, Barcelona staged an incredible comeback to defeat arch-rivals Real Madrid 4-3, moving to the brink of the La Liga title.

The victory, which marked their fourth Clasico win of the season, leaves Barcelona with a seven-point lead over the reigning champions with just three matches remaining.

The match got off to a blistering start, with Kylian Mbappe scoring a penalty in the 10th minute after being brought down by Barcelona goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.

The French striker doubled Madrid’s advantage just four minutes later, finishing off a lethal counter-attack to take his tally to 26 La Liga goals this season.

However, Hansi Flick’s young Barcelona side refused to give up, and they began to fight their way back into the game.

Eric Garcia headed home from a corner in the 25th minute, before 17-year-old sensation Lamine Yamal leveled the scores with a stunning bending effort.

Raphinha then put Barcelona ahead, drilling home a low shot after being played through by Pedri, and the Brazilian winger doubled his tally just minutes later after intercepting a pass from Lucas Vazquez.

Mbappe thought he had scored his third goal of the game just before halftime, but it was ruled out for offside.

The French striker did eventually complete his hat-trick in the 55th minute, finishing off a counter-attack after being played through by Vinicius Junior.

Despite Madrid’s best efforts, Barcelona held on to their lead, and the victory was met with jubilation from the home fans.

The win moves Barcelona to the brink of their first La Liga title since 2023, and they could seal the championship as early as Wednesday if Real Madrid fail to beat Mallorca.

The defeat leaves Real Madrid’s season on the brink of collapse, with the club set to finish the campaign without a major trophy.

Barcelona, on the other hand, are on the verge of a historic title win, and their fans will be eagerly awaiting the final three matches of the season.
