Kylian Mbappe bagged a brace to help Real Madrid beat FC Barcelona in the 74th Spanish El Classico on Sunday night.

The return of the “Special One” Jose Mourinho have been match criticized by certainly those who hate his guts and others saying he’s washed up.

He has certainly proved them wrong now as his tactical genius came into display through his players away at the Spotify Camp Nou.

A deflected clearance on French star Mbappe had Real Madrid leading their fiercest rivals five minutes before the end of the first half.

The Blagraunas clawed their way back into the game through a decent curling effort from Raphinha in the 61st minute to tilt the balance scale in his team’s favor.

If Barcelona had any thought their visitors would be intimidated, well, they thought wrong, as the game became more dramatic with certain controversial calls by the match referee.

A swift late attack starting from Jude Bellingham’s quick-thinking trickery to find Alexander-Arnold, who threaded a nice through pass to Camavinga to beat his marker and squared the ball to Mbappe to double his tally and hand Madrid a deserved win.

The win cuts Barcelona’s lead at the top down to three points and Atletico Madrid’s to one.
