Barcelona - Vallecano was a really fierce game though. The total number of goals was way less than I waited for.

It was a game in which the goalkeepers shined more than the other players. I can say that Vallecano goalkeeper had hell of a performance but it was still not enough to prevent the 1-0 loss. With this win, Barcelona have come to the top again after a long time! But the points are just too tight you know. There is no clear superiority by them to the Madrid teams. But I can say they are really superior about one statistics, goal difference. If the points go on like this until the end, Barcelona can use this to their advantage.

What's fierce buddy? only 1 goal and it was created from the penalty spot while the rest of the game was more boring. Several times Barcelona tried to penetrate Rayo's defense but it didn't work, winning on penalties didn't seem enough for Hansi Flick, especially with his beautiful playing system, it should have created more than 1 goal. And strangely Rayo deserved a score if the referee was fair, you know this game is very easy to guess which way the referee wants the result of this match to end. There was no offside at that time, because he wasn't the one who executed the ball into the goal, but the referee's decision was quite controversial.
