Robert Lewandowski plays by far the best season in the colors of FC Barcelona and one of the best in his career. He gets in every competition, and the most goals can boast of La Liga. In this campaign he already won them 25. It is three more than his main rival in the fight for the crown of the Spanish league top scorer – Kylian Mbappe. The Frenchman had the opportunity to get closer to the Pole on Sunday afternoon, playing against Deportivo Alaves (1: 0). But not only that he did not take advantage of the chance, he also reached out a helping hand to his rival, which the Spanish media is already writing about.
The Spaniards have no doubt. Robert Lewandowski before a great chance. All thanks to Mbappe
“Mbappe suspension can increase Lewandowski's chances in the Pichichi ranking,” writes “Mundo Deportivo”. And what was the Frenchman suspended for, and actually what he can be suspended for, because the decision has not yet been made? He committed a bandit foul on Antonio Blanco. Already in the first half he attacked his opponent with a straight leg in the tibia. Initially, the judge showed him a yellow card, but after analyzing VAR he threw him out of the pitch.
It seems that in the worst case Real footballer is threatened by four suspension matches. “Mundo Deportivo” argues that he will probably pause at least two queues. And this is important news for Lewandowski, who at this time will be able to jump away from the rival in the shooters' classification and in fact to decide on the title.
Before the Pole, home meetings with Celta Vigo and Mallorca. However, Mbappe can leave matches with Athletik Bilbao and Getafe. However, we still have to wait for the official decision on the suspension of the Frenchman.

Real seriously weakened
Possible absence of Mbappe in more than one match will be a big blow for Real. After all, the Frenchman is the most goalkeeper footballer (in total this season he has already scored 32 hits in 48 matches), and someone is needed by a team that still aspires to be the champion of Spain. He loses four points to Barcelona, so he can't afford it. He must make up for losses, which is why the offensive is so important.
