The forward continues his goal scoring form after a goal against Man City earlier this week

Pau Victor scored twice as Barcelona won against Real Madrid in a friendly match held in the United States. The game, marking the first El Clasico of the season, took place at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey and was temporarily halted after 12 minutes due to a heavy storm, resuming after a delay of over an hour.

Real Madrid were without key players Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe, both absent from the tour after participating in the European Championship in Germany.

Victor opened the scoring for Barcelona just before halftime, heading in a pass from Robert Lewandowski. Shortly after the break, Victor doubled the lead for Barcelona, securing his second goal of the match. Despite a late header from Nico Paz for Real Madrid, Barcelona maintained their lead to win the match.

Victor’s performance in the tour has been impressive, scoring three goals in two games, including a strike in a 2-2 draw against Manchester City earlier in the week.
