“Three times in a row. It’s huge considering the formidable Real side” – Twitter reacts after Barcelona beat Real Madrid three straight times

Barcelona etched its name into the record books after they got the better of their arch-rivals, Real Madrid, three times in a row in La Liga, which is quite a magnificent record.

Real Madrid who have been the thrusting force in UEFA Champions League are falling short of the target when it comes to Spanish League. The Spanish giants failed to bring the best out of themselves while locking horns with Barcelona recently.

The El-Clasico went in favour of Barcelona this time too as they beat Real Madrid by 2-1. Barca’s Ronald Araujo was a bit unlucky as he scored an own goal for Real Madrid in the 9th minute of the match. However, Barcelona restored parity by scoring a goal in the form of Sergio Roberto in the 45th minute.
