A ‘clasico’ with plenty of excitement, loads of goals, three penalties, a lot of simulation to get free kicks and a hat-trick for Lionel Messi, Barcelona coming out on top 3-4.
Iniesta gave Barcelona the lead after just seven minutes before Karim Benzema scored twice within five minutes to turns things around.
Messi made it 2-2 and that’s how it was at half time. After the break, a penalty from Ronaldo and two from Messi made the final score 3-4 and the result puts Barcelona just one point behind the two Madrid teams.
Atlético are now top of La Liga, same number of points as Real, after a 0-2 win over Real Betis, Gabi and Diego Costa the scorers.
