Stat: How much further did Barcelona run than Real Madrid in El Clásico? | OneFootball

An insight into the physical dominance enjoyed by Barcelona during the club’s recent victory over Real Madrid has been forthcoming online.

This comes amid confirmation of the running statistics racked up by the two sides over the course of the 90 minutes.

The latest edition of El Clásico was of course played to completion this past weekend.

When all was said and done in a pulsating affair in Catalunya’s capital, it was hosts Barcelona who emerged on the right side of the result, triumphing by four goals to three.

In the process, the Blaugrana all but ended Real Madrid’s hopes of retaining their La Liga title, now sitting seven points clear of their arch rivals, with three gameweeks remaining.

And as alluded to above, as much did not come owing solely to their superiority in passing and chance creation at Montjuïc.

In addition, Hansi Flick’s squad comfortably bested that of Carlo Ancelotti when it comes to running stats.

As revealed by Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona, as a team, covered 108km of distance on Sunday evening. Real Madrid, on the other hand, managed just 98km.
