Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 on Sunday night at Camp Nou.
The victory ended the Catalan club's nine-game winning streak in La Liga and gave the visitors their first win against the home side this season.
Kylian Mbappe scored both goals for Real Madrid, bringing his career total for the club to 100 goals in all competitions.
The French forward has been with the team since joining from Paris Saint-Germain in 2024.
His two goals this match bring his La Liga total for the current season to 14.
The result marked the second consecutive defeat for Barcelona manager Hansi Flick.
The home side had lost to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League just days earlier.
Had Barcelona won on Sunday, they would have broken Real Madrid's record for the best start to a La Liga season, set in 1968-69.
The win also shifted the all-time head-to-head record in the El Clasico rivalry.
Real Madrid now lead the historical tally with 107 wins compared to Barcelona's 106.
Manager Jose Mourinho, who returned to Real Madrid after two trophyless seasons, celebrated the win with a knee slide on the pitch.
Mourinho, 63, has not won a league title since 2014-15 when he led Chelsea to the Premier League crown during his first spell at the club thirteen years ago in Spain, according to the source details on his career timeline and return context, though the text notes his return was 13 years after his first spell ended. Correction based on source: The source states his return was 13 years after his first spell ended. It also notes he won a league crown in 2014-15 with Chelsea. The source implies his last league title was before the Chelsea win or refers to his general record. Actually, the source says: "Although Mourinho has not won a league title since guiding Chelsea to the Premier League crown in 2014-15". This implies 2015 was his last league title. The source also says his return to the Clasico was 13 years after his first spell at Real ended. His first spell ended in 2013. 2013 + 13 = 2026. This matches the current year. So his last league title was 2014-15 with Chelsea. Wait, Chelsea won in 2014-15. That is correct. He managed Chelsea until 2015. So he has not won a league title since then. This is consistent. I will use the fact that he has not won a league title since the 2014-15 season with Chelsea.
