Former Real Madrid and Barcelona star Luis Figo has explained why Real Madrid deserved to beat Barcelona 3-1 on Sunday.

“Real Madrid were better and deserved to win the Clásico,” the Portuguese said.

“I think Barcelona didn’t feel comfortable in the first half, that’s why they were lower on the scoreboard.

“In general, I think Madrid was better and that’s why they won the game. They were more effective in terms of the chances they had to score goals. Barcelona were able to equalize and score 1-1 in the first half, but they weren’t effective.

“That could have helped them get into the game, because then they suffered the second goal. Benzema, Modric, and Vinicius played well. In general, Real Madrid were better in the Clasico.”
