Real Madrid clinched a 3-1 victory over their arch rivals Barcelona to win El Clasico at Camp Nou stadium.

The Whites started the game so fiercely as early as after only five minutes, when Federico Valverde put Zinedine Zidane's side ahead, when Madrid started a move on the halfway line as Nacho found Karim Benzema.

The striker looked up and played  a defence-splitting pass into the path of Federico Valverde, who smashed the ball into the far corner, leaving Neto with no chance.

Three minutes later, Ansu Fati levelled the scoring for the Balugrana, when Jordi Alba chased a long ball over the top and squared to Fati, who slotted home from six yards out in the centre.

Sergio Ramos gave the advantage once again to Madrid, after blasted his penalty down low. Neto guessed the right way but can't keep it out.

Luka Modric confirmed the victory in the 90th minute when he played in Vinicius Jr but Neto was off his line to deny him. He spilled the ball though and Rodrygo found Modric again. The Croat sent the goalkeeper one way and then the other and finished  well.
