The roar of Camp Nou never faded, if anything, it simply only got louder as the match pressed on. The fans were hungry for more, none wanted to settle with a draw, they wanted the supreme bragging rights, and the Laliga title.
The score still stood at 2-2, but the tempo had shifted. Both Barcelona and Real Madrid were playing with more urgency now, but also with a touch of caution.
In as much as they really wanted to score right now and possibly win the game, they were well aware of the fact that one mistake could decide everything, and they knew it.
Barça restarted with the ball possession, passing it around the back as Ayala played it short to Thiago Alarcón. The midfielder took a touch, scanned the field, and sent it diagonally to Stojanović who had drifted wide. He trapped the ball and pushed it forward, trying to beat his man down the right. But Diego Morales wasn't having it.
