Kylian Mbappe’s hat-trick in vain, Barcelona throttle Real Madrid to move closer to La Liga title

What it could have been, but how it went! Real Madrid scored two past Barcelona within 14 minutes and was cruising for a win before Barcelona stepped up and changed the complexion of the game. Despite conceding two from Kylian Mbappe, the Catalan giants didn’t lose composure and maintained balance to turn the tide. Playing against arch-rivals and conceding two goals and ruining the morale of a club, but Barcelona thrived and produced a brilliant performance.
