A few dozen, maybe even a dozen or so seconds. More or less so much was divided by FC Barcelona from securing the championship title … from the TV. It can be assumed that most players of the Catalan club watched the Wednesday struggle of Real Madrid with Mallorca. “Królewski” to 95 minutes tied 1: 1, and this result guaranteed the Catalan championship before their clash with Espanyol.
Real rescued at the last minute. Barcelona must take care of herself. Espanyol too
However, in the added time of the game, 20-year-old Jacobo Ramon saved Madrid, scoring a debut goal in the first band Real. The Carlo Ancelotti team won 2: 1 and thus forced Barcelona to take the matter into his own hands. For Catalans, the matter in the table is quite simple. Four points are currently dividing them from the vice -leader. If they win, they will have seven “points” for two queues before the end, in other words, the title will be them. A draw (5 points of advantage) or defeat (4 points) will still keep Real at the master's life.
Barcelona's celebration in time will want her neighbor, or Espanyol. For them it is also a very important match, because they can ensure their maintenance in the league. On Wednesday evening, Leganes lost 0: 3 to Villareal, which caused their loss to Espanyol to remain at the level of five points. Catalans must win to have peace of mind. A draw is not enough, because in the previous round they have just lost to Leganes 2: 3 and therefore they have a worse balance of direct matches (1: 1 in the first clash), so 6 points would not be completely safe advantage.
FC Barcelona – Espanyol. Decisive derby in Spain
Therefore, the battle for relaxation awaits us. Either Barcelona will win and he will have peace in the context of the championship, or he will win Espanyol and secure himself another two league matches with a neighbor. A draw won't do anything to anyone, but it can only be good for the show. Anyway, the derby competition of these two clubs does not really like draws. There have been only seven of them for the last fifteen years. This is largely due to the dominance of Barcelona, which at the same time lost only once to Espanyol and not even in the league, and in the king's cup in the first match of the 1/8 final in 2018 (0: 1, in the rematch it was 2: 0 for “Blaugrana”).
