Thanks to a double from Vinicius, Real Madrid won against Espanyol (0-2). FC Barcelona is not yet champion.
Espanyol Barcelona could give a little gift to its neighbor, FC Barcelona, by catching Real Madrid and mathematically ensuring the Blaugranas’ title. It didn’t happen.
The Merengues can thank Vinicius Jr. After a rather dull first act, the Brazilian striker made the difference in the second half to allow his team to win (0-2), by scoring two nice goals (55th, 66th). In the absence of Kylian Mbappé, “Vini” was aligned alone at the forefront in a 4-2-3-1, with Valverde, Bellingham and Brahim Diaz in support.
The Clasico as the title match?
In the standings, Real Madrid maintains a very slim suspense by remaining 11 points behind Barça with four days remaining. The title match could therefore be the Clasico, in a week, at the Camp Nou.
