El Clásico: Barcelona's Streak Rolls On Against Madrid

El Clásico can flatten form into nothing — but not this time. Barcelona beat Real Madrid 2–0, turning the biggest fixture in the game into a continuation of the league's hottest streak.
Momentum against the void
Barcelona arrived on ten consecutive wins — the kind of run that makes a side favourites anywhere, even at the Bernabéu's biggest stage. Real, by contrast, came in with mixed form and no streak at all, searching for rhythm at the worst possible moment. The Clásico simply confirmed the gap.

Why it mattered
- Eleven and counting. Extending a win streak to eleven in a Clásico is a statement that goes beyond three points.
- No rhythm, no answer. Real's lack of a pattern left them without momentum to fall back on against a side brimming with it.
- Form held where it usually breaks. Clásicos are famous for upsets — this one rewarded the team in better shape, clean and clear.
Streaks are supposed to wobble on the biggest stage. Barcelona's didn't even flinch.
