Barça perfectly negotiated their trip to Osasuna by winning (1-2), a valuable victory in the race for the La Liga title. This success puts direct pressure on Real Madrid, who travel to Cornellà this Sunday to face Espanyol. In the event of a poor performance by the Madrilenians, the Blaugrana would be officially crowned champions of Spain this evening. An ideal situation for Hansi Flick’s men, who see the title fast approaching after a generally controlled season.
Asked about Real Madrid’s match against Espanyol, Hansi Flick especially got people talking about him with a pretty funny response. The Blaugrana coach made it clear that he would not follow the match: “I won’t watch Real Madrid, that’s for sure. We are 14 points ahead, it’s not for me. If anything happens, I will be told in our WhatsApp group. Watch the match? Maybe tomorrow I’ll go see “El Mago Pop”. Maybe I’ll go with my wife.”he blurted out according to El Chiringuito. An outing which sounds like an assumed dig at the Madrid club, displaying total detachment from its result, while indirectly underlining Barça’s favorable position in the title race.
