But when will the verdict be rendered in La Liga? Currently, FC Barcelona seems to be distancing itself from Real Madrid in the standings. Hansi Flick’s men took full advantage of the Merengues’ misstep that occurred a few hours earlier against Mallorca (2-1) to strike a major blow in the league. Indeed, Barça won on the Metropolitano pitch against Atlético de Madrid last night (1-2).
Beyond the result, this success, oh so symbolic, could bring the Blaugranas a little closer to the title. With a lead of 7 points, the Catalans could quickly celebrate, to the point of considering an early coronation, possibly during the Clasico against Real Madrid (scheduled for May 10). With the psychological advantage and this current form, there is no doubt that Lamine Yamal’s teammates definitely want to widen the gap at the end of the season.
