The opening of the game was great - already in the sixth minute, Barcelona took the lead, and Christensen was the scorer. Rafinha took the corner, the goalkeeper of Real, Lunjin misjudged the flight of the ball, so the "Blaugrana" footballer shook the net.

Young Jamal was causing a lot of problems for Real, who had a good chance in the 14th minute, but didn't realize it, and the home team equalized in the 18th minute. Vasques passed Kansel, entered the penalty area where he was brought down by Kubarsi. Madrid won a penalty, and Vinicius was safe from 11 meters, who scored the 13th goal of the season in La Liga.

In the 28th minute, a controversial situation was seen - Barca won a corner, Rafinha crossed, Jamal deflected the ball, and Lunjin, with a lot of difficulty, kicked out from the goal line. It took a long time to check in the VAR room, and in the end it was decided that no hit. In La Liga, unlike some other championships, there is no technology that would immediately notify the referee that the ball has crossed the goal line.

There was no end to the excitement in the first half, Real had a chance through Modrić and Rodrigo, Gundogan attempted a free kick on the other side, and then at the end of the first half, Ćavi was left without De Jong, who was injured.

It seemed in the finish that the rivals would share the points, but Bellingham put the point on the game. In the first minute of stoppage time, Dias started an attack, passed the ball to Vasquez, who crossed from the right side, and his ball was converted into a goal by an English representative.
