Barcelona and Real Madrid played out their first goalless draw in El Clasico in more than 17 years after the two sides were unable to separate themselves at the top of La Liga.
In what was a match rescheduled from 26 October due to the political unrest in the Catalonia region and the continued protests for independence, there was no splitting the two great rivals.
With both teams going into the match at the Nou Camp locked together on 35 points at the top of the table, it was Madrid who enjoyed the better of the first half, with Karim Benzema and Fede Valverde both having chances to break the deadlock and Casemiro seeing his header cleared off the line by Gerard Pique.
Barcelona’s best opportunity came to Lionel Messi, but his shot on goal was also deflected off the line by Sergio Ramos.
After the break, Gareth Bale looked to have put Madrid in front, but his goal was ruled out by the assistant referee’s flag as he correctly judged teammate Ferland Mendy to have been offside in the build-up to the potential match-winner.
In the end, there was no splitting the sides and their La Liga battle continues ahead to the final weekend of action before the winter break.
