CNN —Real Madrid suffered an embarrassing 4-0 defeat on home soil to bitter rival Barcelona on Saturday in the latest edition of El Clásico. Barcelona’s victory extended its early lead over Real Madrid at the top of La Liga to six points, with the team led by an impressive group of young stars. Susana Vera/ReutersIt was a particularly tough night for Real Madrid’s newest superstar Kylian Mbappé, who struggled in his first taste of El Clásico. But Real manager Carlo Ancelotti was sanguine in his assessment of the match, insisting the result wouldn’t define the team’s season. “Real Madrid has opened an investigation in order to locate and identify the perpetrators of these deplorable and despicable insults so that the appropriate disciplinary and judicial measures can be taken.”

CNN —Barcelona manager Xavi and goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen have labeled La Liga “embarrassing” for its lack of goal-line technology after the team was denied what it thought was a legitimate goal in Sunday’s 3-2 El Clásico defeat by Real Madrid. The camera angles provided by VAR were inconclusive – including one looking directly down the goal line that was blocked by Lunin’s body – meaning Soto’s original decision stood. According to FIFA, goal-line technology can notify a referee within “a second” if the whole of the ball has crossed the line. Barcelona's German Marc-Andre ter Stegen called La Liga's lack of goal-line technology 'embarrassing.' “I can’t find the words to explain what happened on the goal line,” Ter Stegen told reporters, per ESPN.
