Barcelona VS Atletico Madrid

Barcelona vs Atlético Madrid in the big match of La Liga today. In La Liga, Barcelona is the number one team in the points table and Atletico Madrid is the number three team in the points table.

The duet of Gavi, Sergio Busquets and De Jong can always be relied upon by Xavi compared to the midfield duo of Franck Kessie, Sergi Roberto and Sergio Busquets, when viewed up close they are less creative in providing sufficient placement space and ball flow for attackers so it is very difficult for Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres to score, proven by several previous disappointing Barcelona matches which achieved unsatisfactory results.

Even though Barcelona controlled the match, the finishing was still weak so that additional goals were not created in the second half. The victory over Atletico Madrid was very important for Barcelona to motivate the team to achieve satisfactory results in the remaining matches and at the same time make a distance of 11 points from Real Madrid in the second standings.

The match is over with a goalless second half. Raphina was the man of the match,Bosquet didn't give ATH players an opportunity to net their post. Barcelona could have scored more goals in the second half but it didn't work out. Greizeman played 5 shots on target but he was unlucky to score any.

Torres Ferran scored the only goal in the match, this increased their points difference to 11 points ahead of Real Madrid. It will be impossible for Real Madrid to close this point gap, since they only have 8 games left in the league. Real Madrid should stay focus on the other titles and not this one.

Barcelona players gave it all, they really have high intentions of winning the league
The loss hits hard for Athletico,but that doesn't put the coach at a rough part
He has silenced his critics about everything that was said some even said he should be sacked he still looks likely to retain his place. Haven't they had a good run of wins?
