WHAT HAPPENED?
Just when it looked like this Clasico would end honours even, following goals from Andreas Christensen and Fermin Lopez for Barca and a Vinicius Junior penalty and a Lucas Vazquez effort or the hosts, England star Bellingham broke Blaugrana hearts with a 91st-minute winner at Santiago Bernabeu. Nearly six months on from his 92nd-minute winner against Xavi's side in October, the ex-Birmingham City man repeated the trick; this time in front of his adoring home fans.

Now, with six games to go, Los Blancos have a 11-point lead ahead of their great rivals thanks to Bellingham's heroics.
