With Real Madrid 2-1 Barcelona, ​​4 unbelievable things and 2 indisputable facts occurred, and the MVP of the game was born.

In the early morning of October 27, the 10th round of La Liga ended in a Clasico. Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 at home, ending its four-game El Clasico losing streak. At the same time, it expanded its lead in the standings to 5 points and secured its first position.

After Real Madrid faced Barcelona, ​​4 incredible things happened, and there are 2 indisputable facts.

Four incredible things:

1. This national derby matchup was so exciting, with ups and downs in the process. In the 2nd minute of the opening, Barcelona was awarded a penalty kick, and then in the 12th minute, Mbappe's world wave scored the goal. As a result, VAR intervened and all decisions were changed and canceled. Soon, Real Madrid took the lead with Mbappe's single goal. Fermin helped Barcelona equalize the score. Before the end of the first half, Bellingham made a contribution to help Real Madrid take the lead again. This was only the first half of the game.

In the second half, Barcelona fell into a passive position. However, Real Madrid first wasted a penalty kick opportunity, and then the goal was called for offside, and they were unable to seal the victory early. In addition, a large-scale conflict broke out at the last moment of the game, and the trigger was Pedri's red dye.

2. VAR stole the spotlight like crazy. Only 2 minutes into the game, the referee gave Real Madrid a penalty kick, but the penalty was canceled after VAR intervened. Shortly afterwards, the referee once again blew away Mbappe's world-famous goal, which was related to VAR's intervention again. In the second half, Real Madrid received a penalty kick, which was also the result of a modified decision after VAR intervention.

According to statistics, VAR has participated in a total of 2,757 games since the introduction of La Liga. This is the first time that VAR corrected the referee's penalty twice in the first 12 minutes.

3. Barcelona did not suffer a disastrous defeat in this game. The main reason was the outstanding performance of goalkeeper Szczesny. According to statistics, Szczesny played the entire game in his first start and made 9 saves, 6 of which saved shots in the penalty area, including 1 penalty kick, 3 more clearances, and 2 hits. After the game, he received a game-high 9.6 points.

4. Although Mbappe suffered repeated defeats against Barcelona in his first season after joining Real Madrid, he maintained a high scoring efficiency. Facing Barcelona again in this game, Mbappe continued his hot form. A single goal against offside was very exciting. He scored in 4 consecutive Spanish El Clasico games (a total of 6 goals), becoming the third player in the 21st century to do this after Ronaldinho and Cristiano Ronaldo.

In addition, Mbappe has scored 12 goals against Barcelona in 9 games in his career, and is also the player with the third most goals against Barcelona in official matches in the 21st century. After the game, La Liga officially selected Mbappe as the best player of the national derby.

Two indisputable facts:

1. After Real Madrid won the El Clasico, it not only ranked first in La Liga, but also left its direct title rival Barcelona by 5 points. This is a huge lead.

2. In this game, Yamal's performance was relatively sluggish. There were only 2 missed shots in the game, and he lost the ball 21 times, the most in the game. After the game, he was rated 6.9 points and barely passed. However, his poor offensive performance also directly affected Barcelona.
