Raphinha scored the third goal for the Catalan team against Real Madrid, after a superb assist from Ferran Torres. He finished accurately to beat goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, giving Barcelona a 3-2 lead.

After scoring, all the Barcelona players ran to celebrate with Raphinha. The Brazilian striker drew attention to his armband. This action further piqued fans' curiosity, as several Barcelona players have been frequently seen wearing armbands recently.

There are many opinions suggesting that the use of bandages by Barça players may be related to doping. Niko Mihic, former head of medical services at Real Madrid, once commented on players wrapping their arms during matches: "It could be a tactical trick, or it could be tendonitis. I don't know what's going on, but any doctor knows that if you want easy access to a vein, the arm and wrist are the best option."

However, this doctor's opinion was mocked by the Barca players. Recently, Raphinha also pointed to the bandage on his arm as a direct response to Niko Mihic's viewpoint.

By scoring two goals in this El Clásico match, Raphinha received the Man of the Match award, further solidifying his crucial role in the Barcelona squad.

Barcelona's 4-3 victory over Real Madrid has significantly improved their chances of winning La Liga this season. The gap between the two teams has widened to 7 points, with only 3 matches remaining.

Barca's 3 goals in the match against Inter: In the early hours of May 7th, Barcelona led 3-2 until the 90+2 minute but Inter equalized, and then lost 3-4 in extra time in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.
