Barcelona gave no impression other than weakening their championship chances with the football they played. I see a big difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona. Real Madrid plays more organized in attack and puts a lot of pressure on the opposing defense. Barça, on the other hand, can beat Las Palmas, who received a red card in the early minutes, with only 1 goal. I think Barça and its players will receive great criticism after this match.
Barcelona needs to improve in their current performances, and the need for Barcelona to up their games cannot be overstated. Because if you take a look at the previous games they've played and compare it with that of Real Madrid, it is easy to say that Real Madrid is playing more professionally and more promising than Barcelona. Therefore, they have more chances to even win the Champions League than Barcelona does.
Already they are leading on the table standing of the La Liga League, and their chances of attaining victory at the end of the season is much higher than Barcelona. Moreover Real Madrid looks more prepared and result-oriented than Barcelona does. And I have put that responsibility on the shoulders of the Barca manager to quickly work harder on the delivery of the team. If they must continue to be as competitive as they were in the past, then they have to work hard and continue to adapt by the ever-competing football environment.
