AVA- The Catalan giants had humiliated Los Balncos 4 days ago at Bernabeu in the Copa del Ray semis, and were looking for another triumph at Real’s home turf on Saturday Night.
Ernesto Valverde’s men managed to break the dead-lock when Ivan Rakitic lifted the ball over the Real’s keeper, 26 minutes into the match.
The league leaders held-on to the advantage, and with the full 3-points, temporarily moved 10 points clear of 2nd placed Atletico Madrid at the La Liga summit.
