Real Madrid and Barcelona stars were embroiled in a brawl at full-time of El Clasico.
Los Blancos hosted their fierce rivals at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday and claimed all three points thanks to Jude Bellingham’s winner in the 2-1 victory, moving five points clear at the top of La Liga.
And at the full-time whistle, tensions boiled over as a melee started between the two teams. The atmosphere was already at fever pitch with players having to be separated in clashes in the final minutes of the match.
The incident was sparked when Barcelona midfielder Pedri received a second yellow card for a foul on Aurelien Tchouameni in the 10th minute of added time.

After the referee's full-time whistle, a huge melee involving nearly all of the players from both clubs started in the centre circle.
Both benches also erupted on the sidelines with Real boss Xabi Alonso entering the pitch to drag his players away.
Thibaut Courtois was left particularly incensed with Lamine Yamal as he berated the teenager. Yamal was quickly guided down the tunnel where his team-mate Raphinha was being dragged away from a separate confrontation.
