He brought up a special celebration after the goal, combining Cristiano Ronaldo's calma and Kylian Mbappe's arms-folded celebrations. For those unversed, Ronaldo brought out the calma celebration after scoring the winner against Barcelona during Real Madrid's win at the Camp Nou in 2011-12. The 2-1 win almost secured the La Liga title for Los Blancos.
With the win, Barcelona have almost secured their status as this season's La Liga champions. Hansi Flick's side have 82 points from 35 matches, eight more than what Carlo Ancelotti's side have with only three games to go.
