Lewandowski brace helps Barcelona to stunning 4-0 win at Real Madrid
Sports
BARCELONA’S Robert Lewandowski scored a quick-fire second-half double to set the leaders on course for a 4-0 thrashing of Real Madrid on Saturday.
Barcelona’s complete display capped a stunning Clasico victory in LaLiga for the Blaugranas.
Real were in control of the game from early on but became frustrated as they wasted several clear chances.
This was before Polish striker Lewandowski silenced the Bernabeu crowd with a two-goal blitz after quick counter attacks in the 54th and 56th minutes.
As Real tried to get back into the contest, Barca killed them off with two more goals on the counter as 17-year-old Lamine Yamal became the youngest Clasico scorer in the 77th minute and captain Raphinha wrapped up the win in the 84th.
