In its final iteration of 2024/25, the Clasico refused to disappoint.
It has been a campaign of prominent duels between the two Behemoths in Spain. Two Barcelona routes were followed by a great end of the Rey Cup last month, and there were GALORE GOALS IN CATALONIA Sunday afternoon.
Travis Scott attended the very significant victory of Barcelona, as the hosts relentlessly took advantage Real Madrid He defends that he spent much of the contest paying a tribute to the American rapper.
This was a football game as open as you are likely to see. There were seven goals, but it would have been at least 67 years. All attacking sequences seemed to give rise to a moment of note, and only the combat rarely allowed those involved to be presented in the air.
At the end, The 4-3 triumph of the ship He has left them on the shores of the Liga Glory, although he confirms in 2024/25 as a season of palpable disappointment in the Spanish capital. Here are four things we learned from the game.
The league of last season and Champions league The double seemed to be the beginning of a period of supremacy of the Real Madrid in Spain, with many suggesting that the rich were only rich adding, without a doubt, the best footballer in the world to their ranks at Kylian Mbapppe.
The Frenchman, individually, acted well after a fairly slow start. His hat-trick means that he is now running Robert Lewandowski in Pichichi’s standings with 27 goals from the league, but the MBAPPE goal award is probably the only honor in Madrid Garners of what has been a bitterly disappointing campaign.
Not even the master balancer Carlo Ancelotti has been able to get this group of players to coalize. While Madrid have Purr’s ability as a collective, this cohesion has rarely been prevalent. As a result, they have often stated a fairly disassociated form and the ancient ideals of Ancelotti Es Paleids compared to the exciting principles that this Barça team adheres to.
Sunday’s defeat means that the last year of Ancelotti will end without the domestic platforms or the Champions League, and it is up to Xabi Alonso to work with telepathy that Barcelona has pushed to the promised land of this term.
The only lack of yamal performance against intert Tuesday was a final touch. While the Espanyol was frustrated by the prominent Yann Sommer on several times in the middle of the week, Yamal was also guilty of producing finishes that do not coincide with the quality of their global performance.
However, the teenage superstar did not allow Sunday to speak a potential problem in the third third. In the midst of another divine exhibition of perhaps the best in the world, Yamal scored the second in Barcelona with an unfolded effort.
The end was hooked on the dismissal of Ferran Torres with the highest intention, subtly folding the ball in front of a desperate Thibaut Courtois. Not even on Tuesday night Sommer would have had the occasion.
You suspect this is the type of goal that Yamal will make a habit of marking.
The goals were so relentless in Montjuic that they seemed to lose value. We are not exactly safe from how “fun” this classic was given the level of defense on the screen.
The aggressive Flick defensive line worked wonderfully when Barcelona was fresh, but this season it has been a slogan and its energy levels without the ball are no longer conducive to a great success. They have granted at least twice in five of the seven departures before all competitions and at least three out of four. If Borja Iglesias settled on the faded team in Barcelona, what do you think Mbapppe and Vini Jr were going to do?
A zonal approach meant that the two Madrid superstarles often broke without touching. After a turnover, the hosts were immediately vulnerable. Now, he does not refuse that the aggressive Flick line has been key to his success this season, helping his ability to drown and sustained -but the unfortunate defensive shows of Barcelona in the low raise the question about whether this approach is sustainable in the long term.
However, although there is a method for Barça’s madness, Madrid did not have a single idea of how they would prevent the home side from winning the Clasico on Sunday. They were not well perfected by possession for much of Ancelotti’s second term, and Mbapping’s arrival has aggravated the discomfort without the ball.
You can go through, around and through this line of recoil of Madrid.
Rodrygo has been for some time as the fourth horses of Horses of Real Madrid, but the Brazilian apparently has fallen in front of a Can the potential summer move away.
After losing the victory 3-2 over Celta Vigo due to an apparent disease, Rodrygo, who played more than 3,200 minutes in all competitions this season, returned to Ancelotti’s squad for Classico, but failed to go out on the pitch.
Something is not well. Ancelotti went to debutant Victor Munoz to replace the wounded Vinicius Junior in the closing stages despite having Rodrygo available. There has been a possible departure this summer and the sudden preference of Ancelotti by Arda Guler suggests that the Brazilian star can leave the Spanish capital.
This felt like a different indication.
