Rapporteret af AI Billede genereret af AI
Real Madrid defeated FC Barcelona 2-1 in a Clásico filled with intensity, VAR reviews, and post-match tensions. Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé shone for the whites, while the injury-hit Barça briefly equalized through Fermín López. Xabi Alonso claimed his first win in this fixture as Madrid coach.
Representatives for Kylian Mbappé have defended the Real Madrid striker following backlash over his holiday with girlfriend Ester Exposito while recovering from injury. The 27-year-old sustained a hamstring issue against Real Betis on April 24 and missed the team's 2-0 win at Espanyol. Mbappé is fighting to be fit for Sunday's El Clásico against Barcelona at Camp Nou.
