I can even say that Real Madrid will be the champion of La Liga again this season. Although they did not score many goals, Real Madrid is an efficient team. Barcelona played aggressively with 43 goals in La Liga but their performance was inconsistent. They lost to mediocre teams and that is different with Real Madrid. Even though they only won with a score of 1-0 or 2-0, a win is still a win. I think this is exactly what Ancelotti said. That Barcelona did win the El Classico but Real Madrid will win the trophy.

There are 3 teams that now have the potential to become the winner of La Liga this season, that is Real Madrid, Atletico, and of course Barcelona. The gap between the three is quite tight, so I think anything can still happen, after all, there is still a long way to go in La Liga. Barcelona may be in a bad phase now, but I don't think anyone will know what the future will be like because what happened to Barcelona might happen to Real and Atletico in the following days.
I see that Barcelona's defeat in several matches was caused by several factors, it does not mean that they played with very poor performance. the problem is, sometimes they have difficulty creating opportunities to score goals. several factors include Flick trying to rotate some of his players, resulting in unsatisfactory results. IMO, from my point of view if Flick tries to give playing time to players to become the main starter while giving rest time to some of the core players. not without reason, because they have a fairly tight schedule plus several injured players and suspended playing bans. which worsened Barcelona's condition because they failed to get full points for three consecutive matches in La Liga, as a result many were dissatisfied with the results. then do they still have a chance to win the trophy this season, yes they still have a chance for that. in the Madrid camp, they are one of the superior teams that are undoubtedly to retain their title. however, the condition of injured players can at any time become a problem and obstacle for them in future matches. so, Don Carlo has homework to overcome the problems within his team so that they can remain consistent on the right track. As for Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone's team is currently starting to perform well again after they also experienced several bad matches across the competition. Well, these three teams are only separated by a small difference in points. With many matches remaining, at the same time the meeting of these 3 teams can beat each other to widen the difference in points. In other words, we agree that at least these 3 teams have the potential to become La Liga champions in the 2024/25 season.
