Well it does not look good to see a player like Messi miss penalty. This shot was predictable. Like the other user explained he always was shooting into the right side.

Overall Barcelona did not play up to the mark so does Valladolid. It was not a good display of football. I hope in the Champion League matches Barcelona do not play the same.

Oh well, I guess that doesn't matter now, First things first, LOL! Real Madrid are down by 2 goals to 1 against Girona, the match is into stoppage time already, I think Barcelona will be nearly impossible to catch for them now.

Edit: Sergio Ramos got a red card, and will miss their next game against levante. Another slip up ?!

It could have been 2 - 0, Messi couldn't convert the second spot kick, I think Barcelona are a bit, if not totally off rhythm. Their struggle is becoming evident, They'd not want to go back into the UCL with such a poor performance.

It looks like Barcelona will win the match tonight, in the first half they were ahead with a score of 1-0 and I think there is still a chance to benefit from the bets I put on the draw in the Barcelona match tonight.
What triggered you to predict a draw match?
Anyway, Valladolid is doing well. Around 70 minutes of the match and still 1 - 0. You may win the bet but highly risky 🙂 I am expecting another goal from Barcelona.

time 86 min and still 1-0 score in barcelona game, you can go with over 1.5 goal as one goal can be expected, go with barcelona 2-0 which is risky bet.
Man Messi missed the penalty. What is wrong with him? I was very close. I think Messi needs a break. He needs to consider someone else to shot for penalties. Including this he missed a good number of penalties.

Edit: Good to see that finally Barcelona won however it should not be too hard for them. Valladolid Played well in this match.

Messi missed the plenty is not something to worry about as no one can score all the plenty and sometimes luck does not favor. Still i will prefer that he is one of the best plenty converters.

Barca won only 1:0 it was confident win of Barca.
Really? If I were Valverde I'd be worried. Yet another game with a poor display of football, even Pique said in the post-match interview that the only good thing today was the win, meaning that even the players know that they need to step up their game. I thought Barcelona was going to have an easy time with Lyon in the Champions League, but looks to me like that won't be the case.

They played poorly that's for sure. However, in the European matches and especially when these are in the Champions League Knockouts, the players change attitude immediately. Barca will not have so many problems in the win-lose games against Lyon. Also, Lyon is not the team that it used to be. There not so many strong players in the club anymore.

This is happening in all leagues, major teams are to confident that they will win the match and they come out with this already they come and the won. But in past few matches not just in this league but in top 5 in europe so many matches end up with favorite losing or plating draw. Never the less win is win no matter how big or small results is.

I'm not saying that it was good game. But I said that win was confident because Valladolid didn't made any dangerous attacks today. If Barca would play like todayagainst stronger teams like Sevilla, betis or Valencia they barely would be able to reach draw. But I hope that we will see different face of Barca on Tuesday when they will face Lyon.

It looks that Masip (former goalkeeper of Barca) had analyzed Messi penalties very well. Tonight he predicted correctly sides where he will kick both times. Mess kicked last 5 penalties in La Liga into the right side. Today it wasn't best game for Messi, but what to say about Suarez - he was terrible tonight and wasted so many moments.
I can't agree that Valladolid played well tonight - they made 0 shots on target, and despite that Barca won only 1:0 it was confident win of Barca. ter Stegen was only spectator tonight.

Tomorrow night we will watch the match between Barcelona and Valladolid, will Barcelona be held back by the teams in the middle of the table? Maybe many people will assume that Barcelona will win this match easily but I still take a high risk to place bets that the results of this match will end with a draw score.

I think Barcelona will attach a high importance to winning that match, They've drop 4 points in the last two league games, I'll definitely back Barcelona to win tomorrow game convincingly as they will at all cost try to avoid further slip up... I think Barcelona will win and also score at least 3 goals.

There are some important news in La Liga. First, Diego Simeone extended his contract with Atletico until 2022. It's great news for Atletico, after all these yars we hardly can imagine Atletico without Simeone.
Barca today announced that they extend contract with Ernesto Valverde until the end of next season with option to extend it until 2020/21. For me it's quite strange decision, because if Valverde will fail in Champions league again or in La Liga this season, he still can be calm about his job, because he have guaranteed contract. Valverde isn't the most popular manager among the fans, but Barca shows that they still trust in him.

I really wish this happens as it’ll make the league interesting, and I wish title race ends on the final game only. Real Madrid used to have an aura in Champions League, but now they don’t have it and I have feeling they won’t qualify for the next round.
Most probably not. Barcelona is not unbeatable but they are playing good football. I do not see they will have hard time to beat Valladolid in the next match too. Even they can easily beat Sevilla in the following match too. There are very few teams can challenge Barcelona in paper. May be Real and Atletico.

I think those 2 matches, I mean against Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid could be a deciding factor for which team would win La Liga, I can say if Barcelona can get 4 points out of a possible 6 from those matches, They'd retain the La Liga crown.

Real will focus on the CL as the season progresses, they have an aura in that competition.
Or we can focus on both competitions. In La Liga, we're just 6 points behind Barcelona, and in just 2 weeks we're playing Barca in the league, a win there would put us just 3 points behind the leader, there's no way we would focus only in the Champions League when we're that close to Barcelona.

I have feeling they won’t qualify for the next round.
That's bold, especially if you consider that we won with 2 away goals and the 2nd leg will be in Madrid, surely the chances of qualifying to quarter-finals have increased for Real Madrid.

Just an hypothetical crazy thinking, what if Barcelona lose their next two matchs and Real Madrid also Atletico Madrid both wins their next two matches then will we see an interesting league like Premier League where Liverpool was way ahead than everyone else but consecutive few bad matches is putting pressure now for them?

I know it's not gonna happen so take it easy 🙂

I think Barcelona will become La Liga Champions. Real will focus on the CL as the season progresses, they have an aura in that competition.

Hey that’s quite possible as Real Madrid was out of the title race, but with some luck they’re back in it. I really wish this happens as it’ll make the league interesting, and I wish title race ends on the final game only. Real Madrid used to have an aura in Champions League, but now they don’t have it and I have feeling they won’t qualify for the next round.
