Real Madrid started better than Barcelona. However Barcelona's performance was still good actually. They just struggled about finishing up their attacks with a goal. Maybe it was a really bad luck. But we would find out about it by next week games. Real Madrid might have lost points too by the way because they had to make a comeback from a 1-0 disadvantage.
We are talking about a stable team that is in the performing phase, so it doesn't surprise me at all.
You are saying something obvious, definitely to +1 for your signature campaign.
You are making a comparison between a stable team that won everything last season and a team that is trying to rebuild itself, it seems so obvious to me that it is almost trivial.
No wonder when Real Madrid is still a club that continues to be consistent in every performance. It will not be balanced when compared to Barcelona which has just started from an alarming zone. Last season Madrid was in good condition and performed brilliantly, Barcelona made changes in the middle of the La Liga season to succeed in second place in the standings. Currently, Barcelona has not fully performed consistently, there is still instability in terms of players and finances. So I wouldn't be too surprised to hear that Real Madrid is always one step ahead of Barcelona.
