Madrid took the lead shortly before the break with Alba Redondo. Barcelona scored the score when Caroline Graham Hansen scored in the 67th minute. However, controversies soon followed Barcelona Jana Fernandez’s potential goal was excluded for offside, even though he appeared on his head. The decision stood without Var.

But the Madrid squad could not be denied. Caroline Weir scored two goals in the dying minutes – first in the 87th minute and then in the interruption – to seal a historical victory for visitors.

Madrid’s victory is a big turning point for the club, especially after the humiliating 5-0 defeat against Barcelona in the Supercopa de Espana two months ago. You are now in a first-class position to urge yourself to the title of the league, while Barcelona has to group 4-1 advantage in the first leg against Wolfsburg in the Champions League.

For Madrid, it is the perfect boost of trust before her own quarter -final game of the Champions League with Arsenal, where you lead from the first leg 2-0.
