Caroline Weir's late brace led Real Madrid to a 3-1 victory over Barcelona in an El Clasico showdown, marking the team's first win against their rivals in 18 matches. Weir's goals, scored in the last minutes of the match, cut Barcelona's lead in Liga F to four points and ended their impressive 10-match winning streak. This victory is especially significant as it represents a historic comeback for Weir following a serious ACL injury that sidelined her for much of the previous season.
"Weir's goals came in the 87th minute and then in stoppage time, marking Madrid's first victory against Barcelona in all competitions and snapping an 18-game losing streak."
"It also signified Barca have lost by two or more goals at home for the first time since 2012, as Madrid's hopes to end Barca's reign as Liga F champions remain alive."
