Real Madrid vs. Barcelona is one of the notable friendly matches taking place on the morning of August 4 (Vietnam time). The match started at 06:00, but did not end until nearly 09:00.
The reason is that a few minutes after starting, lightning and rain appeared in the New Jersey sky, forcing the match to pause for a long time.
In Barcelona's starting lineup, there are pillars such as goalkeeper Marc Andre Ter-Stegen, centre-back pair Inigo Martinez - Andres Christensen and striker Robert Lewandowski.
For Real Madrid, Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, Antonio Rudiger, Luka Modric start, young factors Arda Guler, Brahim Diaz and Endrick hold 3 positions in attack.
There is always a rivalry between the two giants of Spanish football, but with a friendly nature, there are not many dramatic developments and very few notable breaks. It wasn't until the 42nd minute that the goal came.
Lewandowski missed his teammate's cross but accidentally turned it into a pass for Pau Victor to comfortably head.
After the break, Victor scored again in the 53rd minute when he cushioned the ball at close range from a teammate's cross.
Vinicius Junior was brought onto the field by coach Carlo Ancelotti, but did not have much time to coordinate with Endrick because the 16-year-old was replaced 10 minutes later.
There is Vini, but Real Madrid's attack efficiency is not good. In the 81st minute, Nico Paz shortened the score with a header after a corner kick.
However, Los Blancos could not score more goals and lost their second consecutive friendly match this summer.
For Barcelona , this was the fourth consecutive win against Real Madrid in pre-season friendly matches.
On August 7, Real Madrid meets Chelsea, and Barcelona meets AC Milan.
