In a moment of great emotion after Rashford’s goal, the FC Barcelona players gathered to surround their coach Hansi Flick, recently bereaved by the loss of his father. A strong and symbolic gesture in a crucial meeting, which illustrates the cohesion of the Blaugrana group during this Clasico, as they move towards a potential consecration in the championship.

On the pitch, Barça got their evening off to a perfect start against Real Madrid by opening the scoring in the 9th minute thanks to a splendid free kick from Marcus Rashford. The Catalans then doubled the bet by Ferran Torres, well served by Dani Olmo (18th, 2-0), thus taking a serious option in the race for the La Liga title.
