I think with or without the red card, Barcelona will still defeat them because the matching a revenge match for Barcelona following the 1-0 defeat Real Sociedad defeated Barcelona in their home in their Laliga first leg match; and this match is very important for Barcelona to win because it will give them the chance to lead the Laliga table ahead Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid and they finally lead with one point ahead of Atletico Madrid and three points above Real Madrid.
Real Sociedad's performance this season is impressive enough for one to predict that they stand a chance of getting a result at Barcelona but realistically, anyone who's been watching the league leaders performance this season will agree to the opinion that Barcelona was undoubtedly the favorites to win that game with or without Elustondo's 17th minute red card. Before the game, Barcelona knew that would take them to the top of the league after Real Madrid lost to Real Betis on Saturday. So if you ask me, Barcelona's win didn't just happen because the played against a 10-man Real Sociedad.
No one can say what the result of the match would have been like assuming there was no red card in the game. However, Barcelona looks stronger than Real Sociedad but they might not be able to as up to four goals. Victory is victory wether with a red card or not. After all, they started the match with a complete squad.
Barcelona is lucky that everything played out in their favor during the weekend, and that's a sign that they might finally win the title this season if they did not facing any challenge that will be a setback to them.
Yeah you're right I think barcelona can likely win the title this season, that's if they can be constant to maintain their position. because they only have 1point ahead of atletico madrid, you know any slightest mistake from barcelona atletico madrid will always want to utilize the opportunity, so for the fact that barcelona finally succeeded in wining real socieded does not guarantee them of being the champion this season. So I think their performance will determine if they're going to win the title or not.
