Barcelona forward Raphinha may have bagged a brace against [Real Madrid and taken home the MVP award but he wasn’t too happy with his performance](https://www.barcablaugranes.com/2025/5/11/24426146/barcelona-real-madrid-la-liga-el-clasico-final-score-match-report-recap-reactions).
The Brazilian did also miss a couple of chances in the 4-3 win at Montjuic and admitted afterwards he felt he should have done better.
> “I could have scored more than two goals. I missed three chances that I can’t afford to miss. I have very high standards and I think much more about the ones I missed than the ones I scored. I always want to be at my best. When I don’t do everything right, I come away with this feeling of being able to do better,” he told media.
>
> “I think this depends solely on us. We have to celebrate today’s game. The Clásicos are very important. But we know we still have to win one more game.”
>
> “I’d give the MVP to other players. I didn’t play my best game. Pedri is an MVP in every game for me. I was below several: Ferran, Cubarsí, Iñigo...”
Yet Raphinha was still absolutely crucial to the victory, with his goals continuing his incredible campaign that has helped Barca to the brink of a league and cup double.
