Barcelona came from behind to beat Atletico Madrid 3-1 at Camp Nou, extending their lead at the top of LaLiga to four points over Real Madrid. The win marks their fourth successive league victory. Key moments included a missed penalty by Robert Lewandowski and late goals from Dani Olmo and Ferran Torres.

Barcelona hosted Atletico Madrid at the revamped Camp Nou on December 2, 2025, in a crucial LaLiga match. Entering the game, Barcelona led Real Madrid by one point, while Atletico sat third behind by three points after six straight league wins.

Atletico took the lead in the 19th minute when Alex Baena latched onto Nahuel Molina's long ball and lifted a finish over Joan Garcia. The goal was initially ruled offside but confirmed onside by VAR, as Baena stayed ahead of Barcelona's high line.

Raphinha equalized seven minutes later, rounding Jan Oblak to make it 1-1. In the 36th minute, Pablo Barrios fouled Dani Olmo in the box, earning a penalty. Robert Lewandowski blazed his effort high over the bar, missing the first penalty at the new Camp Nou. Oblak later saved a point-blank header from Lewandowski off Lamine Yamal's cross.

In the second half, Julian Alvarez's shot was denied by a fine save from Garcia. Barcelona then took the lead when Olmo finished a team move into the bottom-right corner, though he suffered an injury in the process and was substituted. Yamal fired narrowly wide as Barcelona pressed.

Ferran Torres sealed the 3-1 victory in injury time, controlling Alejandro Balde's pass before lashing home from close range. The result leaves Barcelona with 11 wins from 14 league matches and the highest goal tally of 39 in the division. Barcelona have now won six of the last seven league meetings with Atletico.
