Raphinha scores stunning El Clasico goal as both sets of players clash

Not a bad way to score your first El Clasico goal

Barcelona defeated Real Madrid in a pre-season friendly clash in the early hours of Sunday morning thanks to a stunning strike from new signing Raphinha. The two LaLiga clubs met in Las Vegas for the first El Clasico of the season, and - in typical fashion - it was a heated affair, despite it only being pre-season. Both sets of players clashed in the first half after Madrid starlet Vinicius Jr. was dragged down by Barcelona defender Jordi Alba. https://twitter.com/Rosell___/status/1551054817161789445 Despite the brief altercation, it was another Brazilian who decided the outcome of the match, with Raphinha - who signed for the Catalan giants from Leeds United this summer - scoring a wondergoal. The 25-year-old picked the ball up following a rushed Madrid clearance, before taking a touch and unleashing a stunning strike with his left foot. https://twitter.com/FootballJOE/status/1551139949457686528 It was Raphinha's second goal since arriving at the Camp Nou, with the Brazilian joining in a £55 million deal from the Premier League club. Barcelona have added Robert Lewandowski, Andreas Christensen and Franck Kessie to their ranks this summer. Understandably, given their devastating attacking options, manager Xavi is excited by his forward players.
