Barcelona vs Real Madrid FINAL SCORE: 1-2

This is the start of our Clasico live blog, with our updates on Barcelona vs Real Madrid following on from here. As always, the entries highest up this live blog are the most recent ones.

Full time: Real Madrid win a fourth Clasico in a row

It was too little too late for Barcelona, as the full time whistle goes shortly after the restart. David Alaba and Lucas Vazquez scored counter attacking goals for Real Madrid, before that late Sergio Aguero strike. That makes it a 2-1 win for Los Blancos and means they've won four Clasicos in a row for the first time since the 1960s.

Minute 90+7: GOAL!!! AGUERO PULLS ONE BACK!!!

Is it too little too late? We'll see, but Barcelona pull one back as Sergio Aguero turns in a Sergino Dest cross. It's 2-1, with almost no time remaining on the clock.

Minute 90+4: GOAL!!! LUCAS VAZQUEZ ON THE COUNTER!!!

Lucas Vazquez seals the win for Real Madrid! Barcelona have a chance at one end and there is a penalty box scramble, but referee Sanchez Martinez waves play on and Real Madrid launch a counter attack. After Ter Stegen saves from Asensio, Lucas Vazquez is there to turn it in ahead of Eric Garcia.

Minute 89: Now Courtois goes down

Some of the Real Madrid players have hit the deck in this game before springing back up and looking as good as new following a bit of timewasting. But, this looks different as Thibaut Courtois goes down. He seems to have hurt his knee as he swung his boot at a long kick. But, he'll carry on.

Minute 86: Vinicius needs some help from the doctors

The Real Madrid medical staff are called on to treat Vinicius, as he hits the deck. That wastes a little more time, although we could get a lengthy period of stoppage time.

Minute 83: Just over from Aguero

Sergio Aguero moves himself into a great position at a cross, able to get his head on it. However, the Argentine striker can't direct his header on target and it flies just over the bar.

Minute 78: Booking for timewasting

Real Madrid are slowing the game down when they can, with Ferland Mendy even booked for wasting time at a throw-in. There's still a lot of time left for Real Madrid to try to hold on.

Minute 73: Ansu Fati's afternoon is up

He has been Barcelona's leader in attack in this second half, but Ansu Fati has to go off as Koeman doesn't want to push the youngster to the limit following his long-term injury. Sergio Aguero comes on in Ansu Fati's place for his Clasico debut.

Minute 71: Benzema blocks himself!

There's another great chance for Benzema, who may have been offside, but the Frenchman gets in his own way and falls forward to divert his own intervention away from goal.

Minute 68: Courtois denies Jordi Alba

Jordi Alba is in a dangerous position and tries a cross-cum-shot, that only manages to find the arms of Courtois. The Belgian tries to launch a counter attack, but can't do so this time.

Minute 63: A big chance for Benzema

It could have been 2-0 to Real Madrid right there. Karim Benzema has been in great form this season, but can't beat Ter Stegen with a volley inside the area. Barcelona are hanging on here.

Minute 60: Dest recovers well to deny Vinicius

Vinicius is about to get a shot off after getting past Dest, but the Dutchman recovers well as the ball takes an age to come down for the Brazilian to be able to shoot. It's still just 1-0.

Minute 58: The Barcelona players surround the referee

The ball strikes Toni Kroos' arm as he jumps up for a penalty box duel with Frenkie de Jong. The Barcelona players can't believe it and surround referee Jose Maria Sanchez Martinez, who decides to book Pique for his protests.

Minute 54: Mendy tests Ter Stegen

Real Madrid's defenders are certainly keen to get forward today. Now it's Ferland Mendy who gets a shot off, which Ter Stegen is able to parry and gather.

Minute 49: Ansu Fati tests Courtois

Ansu Fati hits a cross first time, drawing a top save from Courtois. That was an important reaction save from the Belgian shot-stopper. Barcelona have started the half well.

Minute 48: Coutinho is making an impact

Since coming on, Coutinho has been making an impact. The Brazilian hasn't quite created a clear-cut chance yet, but he is involved and is causing the Real Madrid defence problems.

Minute 46: Coutinho comes on for the second half

Barcelona are making the first substitution of the game, with Oscar Mingueza coming off and with Coutinho sent on. Let's see if he can inspire a Barcelona comeback.

Half time: Real Madrid lead at the Camp Nou

That's all for the first half of this Clasico. Real Madrid have the lead, with David Alaba scoring the only goal so far by finishing off a counter attack that he himself started. That was after Sergino Dest missed a great chance at the other end for Barcelona.

Minute 44: Huge block from Alaba!

He scored the goal and now David Alaba makes a vital intervention at the other end, blocking an Ansu Fati effort from just outside the six-yard box. The Austrian has been the standout player so far.

Minute 40: Real Madrid look dangerous on the counter

Every time Barcelona lose the ball, Real Madrid look dangerous on the counter attack. That's how the goal came about, but Los Blancos have had other promising transition moves too.

Minute 38: Garcia's ambitious effort wins a corner, but it's wasted

Eric Garcia is the latest Barcelona to try a shot from distance, but it is blocked and bounces wide for a corner. Barcelona can't do anything with it and Real Madrid go down the other end to win a corner of their own.

Minute 35: So close from Pique!

Barcelona almost produce an immediate response, with Gerard Pique losing all of his markers at a corner and getting his head on the ball. It looks like it's bouncing in, but ultimately goes just wide of the post.

Minute 32: GOAL!!! ALABA'S STRIKE PUTS REAL MADRID AHEAD!!!

Memphis is in the danger area again, but Alaba manages to muscle him off the ball and the Austrian launches a counter attack, with Rodrygo feeding the ball back to Alaba, who fires in a brilliant strike to make it a 1-0 Real Madrid lead.

Minute 30: Memphis has a go from distance

Memphis has been Barcelona's busiest player so far and he now decides to try his luck from distance. But, it doesn't trouble Courtois at all.

Minute 25: Dest blasts a great chance over

Memphis Depay races forward and plays a ball for Sergino Dest. Ansu Fati gets a touch on it, that might actually make the chance more difficult for Dest because now the ball is bouncing. Then, the USMNT player blasts that bouncing ball well over the bar.

Minute 24: An offside Vinicius terrorises Ter Stegen

Once, twice and thrice, Vinicius turns Ter Stegen before eventually getting off a shot that is blocked by Jordi Alba. He was offside anyway, so it wouldn't have counted.

Minute 21: Vinicius wants a penalty and Pique is furious

Vinicius turns Mingueza inside out and hits the deck as the Barcelona defender tries to recover. The Brazilian wants a penalty, but it isn't one and Pique is unhappy at what he feels was a dive.

Minute 18: The high lines are doing their job

Both sides are playing high defensive lines and they're both doing their job, with lots of offsides so far from long balls over the top. This Clasico has yet to explode into life, but there's plenty of time yet.

Minute 13: Vinicius wins a corner

Real Madrid finally reach the opposition byline, with Vinicius able to win a corner kick. The first is put back out, before the second is cleared away too.

Minute 10: Lucas Vazquez takes out Memphis

The home crowd want a yellow card for Lucas Vazquez and he'd have had no complaints had he gone into the book. With Memphis Depay about to break free, the Real Madrid right-back slides in and takes him out.

Minute 7: Real Madrid can't get out of their half

Barcelona have started well, without creating any chances yet. They have Real Madrid pinned back, with the visitors unable to get out of their own half.

Minute 3: A first shout for a penalty

The Barcelona fans now shout for a penalty, as Ansu Fati hits the deck while chasing an overhit ball from Jordi Alba. But, they're not going to get that one, no matter how loud the fans scream.

Minute 2: There's a great atmosphere in the Camp Nou

It's not full, but it's not far off. There's certainly enough fans in the stadium to whistle every time Real Madrid are on the ball. There's also an early cheer as Pique comfortably deals with Rodrygo.

13:10 CEST: Koeman vs Ancelotti for the first time since 2003

Ronald Koeman and Carlo Ancelotti have met before in their coaching careers, although not recently. Not since almost two decades ago. Their four clashes as coaches all took place in 2003 when Koeman's Ajax went up against Ancelotti's AC Milan. There were three wins for the Italian and a draw. In their playing days, they met in one goalless Netherlands vs Italy friendly, with both players marked out in the image below.

12:45 CEST: Fear or no fear in El Clasico?

Fear was the big talking point of Saturday's pre-Clasico press conferences, as Ronald Koeman insisted he isn't scared of the match before Carlo Ancelotti said that it can be good to be scared. "Without fear, you might go up to a lion thinking it is a cat," the Italian, quite philosophically, said.

11:55 CEST: The Barcelona predicted line-up for El Clasico

Guessing Barcelona's XI has been difficult of late, but it might not be for this game. Jordi Alba remains a slight doubt, but could still start in an XI made up of: Marc-Andre ter Stegen; Sergi Roberto, Gerard Pique, Eric Garcia, Jordi Alba; Frenkie de Jong, Sergio Busquets, Gavi; Sergino Dest, Memphis Depay, Ansu Fati.
