"Barcelona" has come very close to triumph in the "La Liga" championships.

Another thrilling "El Clasico" of this season ended with a fourth victory for the Catalans. On Sunday afternoon, "Barcelona" defeated "Real" 4:3.

After the first 14 minutes, "Real" was leading by two goals - Kylian Mbappe scored a "double."

In the 19th minute, Eric Garcia reduced the deficit.

In the 32nd and 34th minutes, "Barcelona" leaders Lamine Yamali and Raphinha scored. Their goals put "Barca" in the lead, and at the end of the half, the Brazilian scored yet another goal.

In the middle of the second half, in the 70th minute, K. Mbappe brought the intrigue back into the match with another goal.

There was still a lot of action on the field. "Barcelona" was awarded a penalty for Aurelien Tchouameni's handball, but after a VAR review, the referee did not award the penalty.

Brahimi Diaz had a very good opportunity at the end of the match to secure a point for the visitors, but he failed to take advantage of the chance. At that moment, Fermín López scored a goal that seemed to confirm the victory. However, with VAR's assistance, the goal was disallowed, so the score remained 4:3 in favor of the hosts. The match referee soon blew the whistle and announced the end.

With 3 rounds remaining, "Barcelona" has a 7-point lead over the royal club.
