A rampant FC Barcelona offered too much in the second 45 after a first half which saw the game evenly contested with Madrid thwarted by the Barça offside trap and keeper Iñaki Peña.
The Catalan side came out in a different gear at the start of the second half and their evolving dominance of the ball drew the first whistles from the ever restless Santiago Bernabeu crowd.
Ten minutes into the half and Lewandowski struck after splitting the Madrid defence and slotting past Lunin to open the scoring. Just two minutes later the Catalan side doubled their advantage when the Polish striker nodded home from a fine Balde pass with a perfectly angled header.
Flick’s side had further chances to increase their advantage as the Polish striker spurned two solid chances as Dani Olmo boosted the Barcelona midfield.
Ancelotti shuffled his pack and looked to Modric to try and claw back dominance in the centre of the park but frustration had already smothered the men in white with Mbappe and Vini Jr. frustrated time and time again in a second half where neither player enjoyed the danger and freedom they experienced in the first 45.
Barça added two more dagger blows as Lamine Yamal blasted home from an acute angle in the 77th minute to end any dreams even the most optimistic Madridista had of mounting another epic comeback before Raphinha rounded off the rout with a subtle lobbed effort in the 84th minute.
A perfect evening for Barcelona and every credit to Hansi Flick with the German coach’s positive impact generated at the Catalan club unquestionable.
A perfect week for Barcelona with 13 goals in three games against Sevilla, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid which also saw Los Blancos fall short of beating the LaLiga unbeaten record.
