FC Barcelona have issued a statement laying down the condition upon which they will demand that their latest ElClasico against Real Madrid be replayed.
Jude Bellingham's stoppage-time goal ensured that Real Madrid walked away with a dramatic 3-2 win on Sunday night to stretch their lead at the top of the LALIGA table to 11 points, with their long-time rivals in second place.

During the course of the game, when the score was level at 1-1, a Lamine Yamal effort at goal was disallowed, although questions marks were raised over whether or not the ball had crossed the line.
As the Spanish top flight does not have goal-line technology, the match official eventually waved play on following a long decision-making process.
Barca manager Xavi Hernandez later labelled the incident as a "disgrace", adding that he feels "a great sense of injustice".
Blaugrana president Laporta has now also expressed his feelings following the clash, insisting, in a statement released on the club's official website, that the matter be investigated further.
"As president of FC Barcelona, I would like to put across my dissatisfaction the day after the improper use of a tool such as VAR in one of the most important matches in the global schedule is marking our calendar," he said.
"As a club, we want to be sure about what happened, and it is for that reason that from FCB we will make an immediate request to the Technical Refereeing Committee at the Spanish Football Federation for a comprehensive collection of footage and audio from the incident.
"If, once this documentation has been analysed, the Club understands that an error was made in the revision of the incident, we will take all available measure to reverse the situation, without discounting, obviously, any necessary legal action.
"If it is confirmed that it was a legal goal, we will move ahead and we do not discount requesting that the game be replayed, just as has happened in another game in Europe due to a VAR error.
"Finally, I would like to underline that despite our focus on this incident, we also disagree with various others that occurred during the game, and that could have been reviewed using VAR."
