Barcelona 2 Real Madrid 2: LaLiga champions stay unbeaten despite Roberto's first-half red

Gareth Bale struck the equaliser for Real Madrid as they battled to a 2-2 Clasico draw away to Barcelona, who had Sergi Roberto sent off.

Champions Barcelona maintained their season-long unbeaten LaLiga run with a 2-2 Clasico draw against rivals Real Madrid at Camp Nou, despite Sergi Roberto's first-half red card.

Barca played 45 minutes with 10 men but managed to extend their record undefeated streak in the top flight to 42 matches, a record that stretches back to April 2017.

In Andres Iniesta's last Clasico, Luis Suarez gave the Catalan giants an early lead by turning in a terrific right-wing cross from Roberto, but the advantage did not last long as Madrid hit back in the 14th minute.
