Real Madrid's five match El Clásico winning streak came to an emphatic end Sunday with a 4-0 loss to Barcelona. The win was Barcelona's first against Real Madrid since March 2019.

Barcelona led 2-0 at halftime after header goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Ronald Araujo. In the second half, Barcelona added two more with a goal from Ferran Torres and Aubameyang's second of the match.

Despite the loss, Real Madrid still has a sizable lead at the top of the table in La Liga with 66 points. That's a nine-point advantage over Sevilla with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid now tied for third with 54 points each.

In November 2021, Barcelona hired former midfielder Xavi to take over as the team's manager. Barcelona now hasn't lost in a month with nine wins and three draws in its last 12 matches, including a 4-2 win over Atletico and a 4-2 win against Napoli in the Europa League.
