In the 43rd minute, Vinicius Jr carved out space on the wing, crossed to the far post, where Militao, rising highest, headed across goal for Bellingham to tap in. The English star celebrated both a goal and an assist in the first half, marking his continuing impact since arriving in Madrid.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Second Half Blues<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After halftime, the game opened up further. Mbappe had a chance to double his tally but was denied spectacularly by Szczesny\u2019s full-stretch save at the penalty spot. Rodrygo and Bellingham continued to threaten, but Szczesny\u2019s form kept Barcelona in touching distance until the final whistle.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Real Madrid vs FC Barcelona: Match Stats<\/b><\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Statistic<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Real Madrid<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Barcelona<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Goals<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shots on Target<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">10<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ball Possession<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">48%<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">52%<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Passes Completed<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">244<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">617<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yellow Cards<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Red Cards<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Penalties (Saved)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1 (saved)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2><b>THE END<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">El Cl\u00e1sico delivered another chapter of fast-paced drama and technical excellence.
