Barcelona’s women’s team continued their unrelenting dominance over rivals Real Madrid on Sunday, clinching a resounding 5-0 victory at the Olympic Stadium. This triumph extends their remarkable winning streak in El Clásico to 12 consecutive matches.
Despite missing the services of the injured star Alexia Putellas, the Catalan giants showcased a masterclass performance. The comprehensive outcome propelled Barcelona to a 6-point lead at the summit of the Primera División standings, while Real Madrid, in second place, endured their second defeat of the campaign.
Ballon d’Or winner Aitana Bonmati initiated the scoring for the hosts in the 17th minute. Further first-half goals from Caroline Graham Hansen and Mariona Caldentey extended Barcelona’s lead to a comfortable 3-0 at halftime.
In the second 45, Real Madrid struggled to stem the tide, and two late strikes from substitutes Claudia Pina and 17-year-old Vicky Lopez added insult to injury. The 5-0 triumph also perpetuated Barcelona’s extraordinary unbeaten home streak in the league to 67 matches, a run dating back to February 2019.
Following Sunday’s emphatic victory, it is evident that Barcelona’s supremacy over their arch-rivals and in the Liga F shows no signs of waning anytime soon.
