FC Barcelona took home record gate receipts in El Clasico at the weekend according to RAC1, which cited anonymous sources when reporting the news through Marta Ramon and its X social media account.
The Catalans closed in on the La Liga title and an impressive domestic treble in head coach Hansi Flick’s first season by beating bitter rival Real Madrid 4-3 in the latest edition of the world’s biggest derby.
When Barca went 2-0 down in a quarter of an hour thanks to a Kylian Mbappe double, there were fears that the psychological and physical wear and tear of Tuesday’s painful Champions League semifinal exit to Inter Milan might result in Madrid being let back into the title race.
By half time, though, Barca led 4-2 thanks to a brace from Raphinha and goals from Eric Garcia and teenage prodigy Lamine Yamal.
Though Mbappe completed his hat trick in the second half, the home side held on for a 4-3 triumph and can now wrap up the Spanish top flight title with another victory over crosstown foe Espanyol away at the RCDE Stadium on Thursday.
