The last time Real Madrid lost to Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabeu was on March 2, 2019, when the Blaugrana celebrated a toughly-earned1-0 victoryin Matchday 26 of the 2018-19 La Liga season.
A brilliant ball from Sergi Roberto set up a slick finish for former Croatiainternational Ivan Rakitic to beat the Whites’ goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois for the game’s lone goal halfway through the first half. The triumph came only three days after Barca’s3-0 away Copa del Rey Semi-Final victory over Real Madrid on February 27.
On top of all that, at the time,the Catalan side surpassed Real Madrid in the Clasico record books by winning their 96thgame, managing foursuccessive victoriesaway from the Bernabeu for the first time in their history. It took Los Blancos exactly one year to breakthemisfortune, as they snatched a 2-0 win at home on March 1, 2020.
