**Madrid, Spain:** Barcelona, under new manager Hansi Flick, delivered a stunning performance at the Santiago Bernabeu, demolishing Real Madrid 4-0 in a dominant El Clasico victory. The result ended Real Madrid’s incredible 42-game unbeaten run in La Liga, one shy of Barcelona’s record streak set in 2017-18.

Robert Lewandowski spearheaded the Barcelona attack, opening the scoring in the 54th minute with a clinical finish after a brilliant through ball from youngster Marc Casado. Three minutes later, he doubled the lead with a powerful header from Alejandro Balde’s cross.

Teenage sensation Lamine Yamal then stole the show, becoming the youngest goalscorer in El Clasico history at 17 years and 105 days. He expertly slotted a shot from a tight angle past Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin in the 77th minute. Yamal’s celebration, mimicking Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous “Calma, I am here” pose, further cemented his place as a rising star.

Raphinha, in superb form, capped off the rout in the 84th minute with a deft chip over Lunin, securing a resounding 4-0 victory.

“We came here to do just this,” said Yamal after the game. “We had lots of confidence, and after scoring the second goal, we wanted more.”

Hansi Flick, beaming with pride, praised his team’s performance: “We played a fantastic game and I’m so proud. We pressed better with and without the ball, had more possession, and that’s why the game changed. The defensive effort was key. We’ve trained a lot on how to defend with a high line and press on the ball.”

This resounding victory is a testament to Barcelona’s resurgence under Flick, showcasing their ambition and potential as they aim for further success in La Liga and beyond.
