Barca wins El Clasico to become Copa champions

Real Madrid defender Raul Asensio waggled his fingers and said 'no, no'. Blancos coach Carlo Ancelotti hinted - 'I didn't say the title would be stolen'. In the end, Barca didn't have to win the Copa del Rey final with the shame of 'stealing'. The Catalans defeated the Los Blancos 3-2 after a 120-minute battle to become the Copa del Rey champions. A great fight was seen on the field in Seville. Hansi Flick's team Barca took the first lead in the 28th minute of the match. Spanish midfielder Pedri scored the goal. That goal gave Barca, who had previously defeated Real in the first leg of La Liga and the Super Copa de España final, hope of winning. But Kylian Mbappe, who came on the field in the second half despite being injured, saved the match. He scored from a free kick in the 70th minute. Seven minutes later, another Real French star, Aurelien Chouman, scored to give the Blancos a 2-1 lead. But Carlo Ancelotti's team could not hold on to that lead that was close to winning the title. In the 84th minute, Barcelona equalized 2-2 through a mistake by Real goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. Barca took the lead in added time to create a chance to win the title. In the 95th minute, Asensio tackled Rafinha in the box. The referee blew the penalty whistle. He was accused of favoring Barca before the match. Real threatened to boycott the match if the referee was not changed. It did not work. When the referee blew the penalty whistle at the last minute, Real Madrid's players, staff and fans got the opportunity to say 'the final was stolen'. But with the help of VAR, the referee canceled the penalty and showed Rafinha a yellow card for diving. The match went into extra time. Barca took home the title by scoring in the 116th minute. Barca's French defender Julen Kunde scored the winning goal. Real Madrid were awarded a penalty later. But it was canceled due to offside. Before the final whistle, Real's Rudiger and Vazquez were shown red cards for misbehaving with the referee.
