Four of them were on target and Andriy Lunin saved all four: three from Anthony Gordon, in the 7th, 15th and 34th minutes, and a late effort from Rodri. Raphinha had three attempts of his own, two of which went just wide, and Lamine Yamal shot narrowly past the post three minutes after the goal.<\/p>\n<p>Real Madrid did not need the ball to hurt their hosts. They played 27 long passes, 18 of them accurate, against Barcelona&#039;s four from 13, and Arda Guler was at the heart of their attacks with three shots and the passes behind chances for Mbappe and Yan Diomande. The visitors also won the ball back more often, with five interceptions to Barcelona&#039;s two.<\/p>\n<p>Barcelona&#039;s evening was disrupted just before the half hour when right-back Xavi Espart went down injured and was replaced by Alejandro Balde.
