Real Madrid 2 - 0 Barcelona : Real Madrid beat Barcelona, top La Liga in second Clasico of the season
Real Madrid showed their character by beating Barcelona 2-0 in Sunday's top-of-the-table Clasico, leapfrogging their rivals at the La Liga summit after a week in which their pride had taken a beating at home and in Europe.
Brazilian teenager Vinicius Junior scored the opener in the 71st minute with a strike that deflected off Gerard Pique, flummoxing goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen who had made some jaw-dropping saves, and substitute Mariano added the second in added time.
Real's victory means they lead the standings on 56 points after 26 games, with Barca slipping to second spot on 55, while Zinedine Zidane's side also crucially have the better head-to-head record in the event both sides finish level on points.
