Real Madrid turned the tables on Barcelona and achieved a shocking victory 2-1. Barcelona quickly advanced through Gundogan and imposed control during the first half, wasting many opportunities.
In the second half, the course of the match turned upside down and Real Madrid succeeded in taking possession and scoring the equalizing goal through Bellingham, who decided the match in the final hour with a second goal.
With this result, Real Madrid maintained its lead in the Spanish League standings with 28 points, the same as the Girona team, while Barcelona occupies third place, temporarily, with 24 points.
After the match, Ancelotti acknowledged Barcelona’s control over the course of the first half and described the performance of his players as a half to forget.
The Italian coach said: “In terms of numbers, today’s victory is only three points on a very difficult field. We played five tough away games against Athletic, Sevilla, Atletico, Barcelona and Girona and did very well. The season is too long for everyone. Barcelona is a great team and we have to fight until the end.”
Real Madrid coach praised Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo, describing him as a great player when he was asked about Vinicius’ level in the match: “Vinicius? The only obstacle is that he was playing against Araujo, and he is a great defender. He worked harder in the second half.”
