Barcelona Blitz Real Madrid 4-0 Lewandowski & Yamal Shine in Mbappé’s El Clasico Debut

Barcelona delivered a masterclass in Madrid on Saturday, dismantling Real Madrid 4-0 as Robert Lewandowski and teenage sensation Lamine Yamal stole the spotlight from Kylian Mbappé's first El Clasico appearance.

Lewandowski broke the deadlock with two clinical goals (54' and 57'), before Yamal shattered records with a rocket strike at just 17 years and 105 days old – becoming the youngest scorer in El Clasico history . Raphinha capped off the rout with an 84th-minute chip, leaving Madrid's defense in tatters.

'We came to dominate,' Yamal declared post-match, fresh from Barca's midweek 4-1 Champions League demolition of Bayern Munich. 'This team? We’re unstoppable right now.'

While Barcelona extended their ruthless form (21 goals in 5 games), Mbappé endured a nightmare debut against their arch-rivals. The French star was caught offside EIGHT times and squandered multiple chances, prompting Carlo Ancelotti to admit: 'We needed sharper finishing.'

With this win, Barcelona snapped Madrid's 42-game unbeaten league run – stopping them just short of Barca's own historic 43-match streak. The Catalans’ resurgence sends a clear message: Europe’s giants better take notice.
