A match that was played at an electric pace with stunning goals, loads of chances and even a red card to keep everyone expectant at the Bernabeu.
Casemiro broke the deadlock in the first half but Lionel Messi levelled things up with a majestic finish before the break.
The La Liga title effectively on the line, Real Madrid took the ascendency after the interval and forced Marc-Andre ter Stegen into a string of brilliant saves.
While, Keylor Navas also made a couple of great stops to keep Messi at bay and at one stage it looked like neither goalkeeper was going to be beaten again.
Barcelona secured the crucial three points from that man Messi (who else?) with virtually the very last kick of the game via an expertly curled finish from the edge of the box.
Earlier, Sergio Ramos was sent off for a two-footed lunge on Messi and yet Zinedine Zidane's men still thought they had salvaged a point when James Rodriguez nipped in at the near post to equalise
