Federico Valverde scored a brilliant goal at injury time, which R.Madrid narrowly won by three points over Athletic Bilbao, but it was still a tough game for Real Madrid because Athletic Bilbao had a solid defense today that was difficult for R.Madrid to break, but before the final whistle, Bilbao couldn't keep the pressure until the end, but it was a nice performance from both sides.
I know Barcelona is in better shape than R.Madrid this season, but the La Liga crown still lies between these two teams, and I can't guess who will win the battle between them now.
Luckily Real Madrid managed to win this match, otherwise I think their hopes of winning the La Liga title this season would be a pipe dream for them. I feel that Real Madrid's performance is getting worse day by day, IDK how solid Bilbao's defense is, but with all that possession & attacking attempts, they should be able to score a lot of goals. Quite disappointed with this result.
Now in the standings between Real Madrid & Barcelona there is a difference of 4 points, which is still quite far considering there are only a few more matches & losing 1 match will not be a big problem for Barcelona.
I knew this game was going to be very difficult for Real Madrid, because Real Madrid have not been in a very good form recently, and their exit from the Champions League I wonder if they have gotten over it. Athletic Club have been in a very good form of recently, I expected them to give Real Madrid a run of there money, Real Madrid lacks a striker, I think it's time for them to get a striker. That team lacks a striker. That should be a priority for Florentino Perez.
