Vinicius complains to Kounde at one point in the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Xavi already said it exactly one year ago when Barcelona and Real Madrid also faced each other during the preseason in the United States: El Clásico does not understand friendlies. And the duel that both teams waged in Dallas was not going to be less. The match between Xavi and Ancelotti’s men, which the blaugrana won (3-0), had everything from an unexpected appearance, that of Fermín López, to a difficult fact to see: the five white posts that left him with the score at zero.

El Clásico started with a goal made in Xavi Hernández’s laboratory that served to put Barcelona ahead following 15 minutes. In a lateral free kick, Gundogan served the ball on the edge of the area to Pedri, who, to the surprise of the Real Madrid defense, who was expecting a cross from the German from the right side, filtered a pass to Dembélé. The French attacker, who came from behind, did not fail once morest Courtois. The Belgian goalkeeper, who was making his debut this season, mightn’t do anything to avoid Barcelona’s goal in a strategic move that went perfectly.

The first part also witnessed the most tense moment of the duel that Real Madrid and Barcelona played in Dallas. The players of both teams got into a brawl caused by a hard challenge from behind by De Jong to Militao that cost him the yellow card. The players of the white team pounced on the Dutch player, quickly rescued by his teammates. The dispute between the footballers lasted only a few seconds and, fortunately, it remained an anecdote.

The players paid for the lack of rhythm typical of this stage of the season. So much so that three of them retired injured in the first half. The first was the centre-back Christiensen, who left the pitch in the 27th minute due to some slight discomfort in his left ankle. More serious it seems that it will be from Gundogan. The midfielder, one of the new faces of Barcelona, requested the change in the 40th minute following feeling a puncture in the upper part of his right thigh. The third in contention was Mendy. The Madrid side, who was having a disastrous game, just before going through the changing rooms due to an injury to the back of his right leg.

It was not the night for Madrid, who took a win once morest their eternal rival in a Clásico in which they crashed into the posts up to five times. The worst part of this kind of curse was taken by Vinicius. The Brazilian ran into the woodwork three times: first on a penalty, then on a rebound that he caught in the area and, finally, on a shot following some great individual action. Vini might not believe it and neither might Ancelotti. “This had never happened to me,” the coach acknowledged following the crash. Tchouameni and Carvajal were the other two madridistas who faced the crossbar.

And from the jinx of Madrid and Vinicius, to the glory of Fermín López. The 20-year-old Barcelona squad player became the unexpected protagonist of the Clásico in the United States. In six minutes, the man from Huelva scored an authentic goal that made it 2-0 for Xavi’s team and gave Ferrán Torres the third following a great assist. “I like him, he’s talented and he’s hungry and eager,” Xavi said of him following the match. Without a doubt, it was the biggest surprise of an exciting duel between Real Madrid and Barcelona.
