Real Madrid are investigating alleged racist abuse aimed at Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal during and after the 4-0 Clasico defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday night.
The 17-year-old scored the third goal of the rout, and celebrated in front of some Real Madrid fans by pointing to himself and then to the pitch. Video footage of the goal celebrations appear to show insults being thrown at the teenage sensation.
Robert Lewandowski scored twice and Raphinha completed the scoring as the visitors cruised to a win that takes them six points above their rivals at the top of LaLiga.
A Real Madrid statement read: "Real Madrid strongly condemns any kind of behaviour involving racism, xenophobia or violence in football and sport, and deeply regrets the insults that a few fans uttered last night in one of the corners of the stadium.
"Real Madrid has opened an investigation in order to locate and identify the perpetrators of these deplorable and despicable insults so that the appropriate disciplinary and judicial measures can be taken."
