Barcelona responded to recent set-backs in emphatic fashion with a dominant 6-1 victory over Deportivo Alavés at Spotify Camp Nou. Hansi Flick's side put the game out of reach in a breathtaking first half. Raphinha opened the scoring in the eighth minute before Fermín López doubled the advantage midway through the half. Raphinha added his second goal in the 41st minute, and Lamine Yamal made it 4-0 in first-half stoppage time. In the second period, Lamine Yamal grabbed his double in the 64th minute after a VAR review, and substitute Anthony Gordon struck an 81st-minute sixth goal. Mariano Díaz netted a late consolation for Alavés, but the win ensured Barcelona maintained top spot in La Liga with 10 wins from 11 games.
Borussia Dortmund produced a remarkable fightback at the Allianz Arena, coming from behind twice to secure a dramatic 2-2 draw against Bayern Munich in a gripping Der Klassiker. Bayern took the lead in the 38th minute when Konrad Laimer finished off a fine team move. Dortmund responded after the break, with Serhou Guirassy leveling the score on the hour mark. Bayern had a prime opportunity to retake control shortly after, but Harry Kane uncharacteristically missed a penalty. Dayot Upamecano made amends for his side in the 66th minute by powering home a header to put Bayern back ahead 2-1. However, Dortmund refused to back down. In the 89th minute, substitute Fábio Silva capitalised on a loose ball following a late corner to slot home the equalizer, rescuing a hard-earned point for the visitors in the dying moments.
