Real Madrid vs Barcelona live: Aubameyang nets double in first El Clasico as Xavi's side run out 4-0 winners

Thanks for joining our coverage of what turned out to be a memorable El Clasico.

Goodnight!

You get the feeling that had it not been for Thibaut Courtois, the scoreline might've been more embarrassing for Real Madrid tonight...

Courtois applauding a mostly empty Bernabeu, and a few fans standing to clap him too. About the only Madrid player to leave with any credit today.

Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

That's a famous win for Xavi's side as they put a mark on Real Madrid's title ambitions. It's a night to forget for Carlo Ancelotti's team but they remain nine points clear at the top of LaLiga.

Real's misery is almost over, three minutes of additional time to follow.

86' - Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

Barca legend Alves enters the field of play to whistles from the home supporters as he replaces Alba. Nico also comes in for Pedri.

84' - Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

The hosts have picked it up a bit and they're enjoying a good spell of possession. But you get the feeling that it's a case of too little too late...

Dembele has been outstanding this evening and he is replaced by Traore.

77' - Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

Alaba picks the ball up on the left and pulls it back for Asensio, who blazes it over the bar. That's Real's first shot of the half.

It should be four. Dembele gets past Militao inside the box before firing a shot just wide of the post. The Brazilian defender seemed to think he was fouled...

Aubameyang's night comes to an end as he gets replaced by Depay. De Jong makes way for Gavi.

67' - Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

Real just can't seem to defend. Militao loses Aubameyang inside the box but the hosts survive. Barcelona are enjoying plenty of possession and are moving the ball about well.

Carlo Ancelotti makes more changes as Asensio and Vazquez come in for Rodrygo and Nacho.

Modric is deservedly booked for sliding into Dembele.

58' - Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

That's a big miss. Alba cross it into Aubameyang but the striker puts it wide from just six yards out. The home side will be relived.

52' - Real Madrid 0-4 Barcelona

Torres brings down Pique's long ball well and he finds Aubameyang, who clips the ball over Courtois. The offisde flag went up almost immediately but after a VAR check, the goal stands.

47 - Real Madrid 0-3 Barcelona

Unbelievable. It's three. De Jong plays in Aubamayang, who flicks it back for Torres to curl it into the top corner. It's a wonderful goal.

Real Madrid 0-2 Barcelona

We're back underway at the Bernabeu. Two changes for Real during the break as Camavinga and Mariano replace Kroos and Carvajal.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored in each of his last five meetings with Real Madrid (six goals), making him the first player to score in five successive games against Real Madrid in the 21st century (LaLiga and Champions League).

Real Madrid 0-2 Barcelona

What a half of football that was. Carlo Ancelotti has his work cut out. Xavi, meanwhile, will be delighted with his team's performance.

It's all Barca at the moment. They're just not giving their opponents breathing space and almost add another but Aubameyang just can't reach Alba's cross in time.
