Real Madrid entertained Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a good result at home in La Liga. Los Blancos made a solid start to the game and managed to get to the half-time break with a goalless scoreline.
Carlo Ancelotti’s men completely fell apart in the second half as they conceded the opener in the 54th minute when Robert Lewandowski found the back of the net. Lewandowski doubled Barca’s lead just a couple of minutes later before Lamine Yamal made it 3-0 to the visitors in the 77th minute. Raphinha added another goal late in the game as Real Madrid crashed to a dismal 4-0 defeat in front of their home fans in the Clasico.
Let’s take a look at how each Real Madrid player performed during the match against Barcelona.
GK: Andriy Lunin – 5.5/10
Lunin made a few solid saves during the game but won’t be pleased after conceding four times in the second half.
RB: Lucas Vazquez – 5.5/10
He failed to keep things solid defensively and offered very little going forward.
CB: Eder Militao – 6/10
Militao did his fair share of defending but failed to keep the Barcelona attackers quiet in the second 45 minutes.
CB: Antonio Rudiger – 6/10
He put his foot through the ball when he could but it was not enough tonight.
LB: Ferland Mendy – 5.5/10
Mendy earned possession back twice but failed to impress with his performance at left-back.
RW: Jude Bellingham – 5.5/10

CM: Federico Valverde – 6/10
Valverde earned possession back twice and made one good run with the ball.
CM: Aurelien Tchouameni – 6.5/10
He made a few crucial interceptions for his team and engineered one decent chance in the opponent’s half.
LW: Eduardo Camavinga – 7/10
Camavinga got stuck in with a few solid tackles and had a couple of bright moments on the left flank.
ST: Kylian Mbappe – 6/10
He was always willing to have a strike at goal but failed to get his name on the scoresheet.
ST: Vinicius Jr. – 6/10
Vinicius Jr. caught the eye at times but was toothless in front of the Barcelona goal.
Substitutes:
CM: Luka Modric – 6.5/10
