Barcelona Nears Title After Dramatic Clásico Win

Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 4-3 in a pivotal La Liga match, with 17-year-old Lamine Yamal scoring a crucial equalizer and later mocking Madrid’s Jude Bellingham on social media. This victory marked Barcelona's fourth Clásico win this season, putting them seven points clear at the top of the table and allowing them to potentially clinch the title with a win over Espanyol. Yamal's standout performance drew praise from manager Hansi Flick and Manchester United's Marcus Rashford, who is rumored to be linked with a Barcelona transfer. The defeat leaves Real Madrid likely to go trophyless this season and signals an expected managerial change, with Carlo Ancelotti anticipated to depart. Barcelona’s dominance is highlighted by an unprecedented 16 goals scored against Madrid in a single season. Both Yamal and Flick emphasized the team's resilience after their Champions League exit, underscoring Barcelona’s strong form.
