Kylian Mbappé scores twice to defeat Barcelona in El Clásico
Kylian Mbappé scored two goals to lift Real Madrid to a 2-1 victory over Barcelona on October 25, 2026, ending Barcelona’s unbeaten run at the start of the season, Expressen reported. The win at Camp Nou brings Real Madrid within three points of the league leaders in the standings. Real Madrid manager José Mourinho returned to Camp Nou for his first El Clásico since his return to the club, facing a Barcelona side that had won all of its opening nine matches. In the 41st minute, Mbappé opened the scoring when the ball struck him and bounced past a helpless goalkeeper, Joan Garcia. Barcelona equalized 15 minutes into the second half through Raphinha. The match remained tied late into the fixture until the 87th minute, when Eduardo Camavinga drove past the defense and cut the ball backward to Mbappé. The French forward converted his second goal of the match, marking his 100th career goal for Real Madrid. Speaking as a television expert for Disney during the broadcast, Siavoush Fallahi evaluated Mbappé’s overall performance.
Useless first touch, two goals.
He is the worst on the pitch, but also the best on the pitch.
It is completely unbelievable,
Fallahi said.
Dean Huijsen recovers from a difficult start
Real Madrid center-back Dean Huijsen endured a difficult opening phase in his first El Clásico appearance, according to the broadcast analysis.
He comes out the first ten minutes with shit in his pants—which is no small amount,
Fallahi said on Disney, describing the defender’s nerves.
The young Spanish center-back settled into the match as the first half progressed. Fallahi noted the player’s mental resilience following the shaky opening.
He raises his game later and finds his way back. A tough start, but he worked his way into the match. He is mentally strong,
Fallahi said.
The victory leaves Real Madrid in second place in the table, narrowing Barcelona’s lead to three points after ten matches.
