Manchester United academy graduate Marcus Rashford was on the losing side in El Clasico, as Real Madrid secured a 2-1 win over Barcelona in La Liga.

Rashford, currently on loan at Barca, was the Blaugrana’s most potent attacking threat at Santiago Bernabeu and set up Fermín López for the equaliser. However, Jude Bellingham quickly restored the home side’s advantage from a set-piece routine. 

In the second half, Rashford spearheaded Barcelona’s attack as a centre forward in the absence of Robert Lewandowski. However, the Englishman couldn’t manage to pull another decisive moment out of the hat.

Meanwhile, another United academy product seemingly enjoyed Real’s win, and, Kylian Mbappe’s statement performance in particular.

Mbappe put Real ahead early in the game with a superb strike, and eagle-eyed fans took note of his celebration in front of Lamine Yamal.

Instagram account thesecretscout1 posted: “What an image . Kylian Mbappe after scoring, making it known to Lamine Yamal that he’s in his house.”

JJ Gabriel quickly shared the post to his story, hinting at his admiration for Mbappe’s performance and reaction to the goal.
