Lewandowski scores brace as Barca thrash Real Madrid in Clasico
The win lifts Barca six points clear of Real Madrid at the top of La Liga and also means Real Madrid's run of 42 La Liga games without defeat comes to an end, reports Xinhua.
Barcelona’s attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho returned to training on Tuesday, raising the odds that he will feature in Ernesto Valverde’s squad for the upcoming match against Atlético Madrid.
The Brazil international suffered a thigh injury two weeks ago during the Spanish powerhouse’s UEFA Champions League group fixture against Italian side Inter Milan, reports Efe news.
The Catalonia-based club said Coutinho returned to the Sant Joan Despi training ground where he was eased back in with a limited set of exercises.
