Yes, all of this will continue until the end of the season and if we look at the statistics in the standings table, Atletico Madrid is the team with the fewest goal conceded, namely 12 goal conceded in 18 match, if this season Atletico Madrid is able to win the title or at least become runner-up and coupled with stunning appearance next season, then there is chance for Diego Simeone to get contract extension because the contract ends in 2027.
Real Madrid will undergo postponed match in early January against Valencia, I hope Real Madrid is able to get win and bring 3 points in full to take over the top of the standings.

Barcelona needs to be very careful. They have given away the leadership with consecutive defeats to other teams, if they want to take sole leadership now, they must not tolerate bad results. There is no trace of Barcelona, ​​which played great at the beginning of the season, these days. And this has naturally been the subject of much criticism. Many people were surprised by the fact that one of the most valuable clubs in Spain lost to small teams in a row, and after a clear superiority and defeat against Real Madrid, this happened. However, football is such a game, things can turn upside down in an instant.

When Ronaldo joined Real Madrid he was in a better form than Mbappe as he just won the champions league with Manchester United and helped Portugal to qualify for the Nation league. He was favourite to win the ballon d'or also as his performance that season was so good but Mbappe joined a Real Madrid side that has Vinicius Junior that's on top form and he's over shadowing Mbappe and that's why it's looking like Mbappe isn't doing something at Real Madrid. His stats is actually very good but as it isn't that high as the days of Messi and Ronaldo, people are talking down on it. We can't get those kind of statistics again as players now don't have such talents in them.

The race for the triple championship between Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Barcelona seems to continue until the end of the season. This year, Simeone seems to have built an effective team. I already thought the forward line was very good at the beginning of the year. As far as we can see, they are also very successful in the defense area. They did not give many goal chances to Barcelona's attackers. They only conceded one goal and I think they played a successful defense game in this match.

Barcelona still have any chances to gets the title because Laliga even have not reach half of season but Hansi Flick should be make Barcelona playing with more consistent and for Laliga matches Barcelona has poor records because they can only win once in 7 matches even weak teams such as Las Palmas and Leganes can beat them and for next year if Barcelona want to stayed at top 3 i think this shouldn't be happend anymore but the competition for race title is more competitive rather than last season because surprisingly Atletico Madrid can joining the race and they even can beat Barcelona at Camp Nou

This is what must be solved immediately by Hansi Flick to find the right solution so that Barcelona always wins in every match without having to always rely on his attacking trio, and indeed for now Hansi Flick has not been able to find the solution because during Yamal's absence on the field Barcelona's attack seemed not sharp besides Lewandowski has recently had difficulty scoring goals. I think Barcelona should take advantage of the mid-season transfer market, bringing in a quality second layer will be very useful to compete competitively in La Liga or UCL, but back again they have to sell some unimportant players considering Barcelona's finances are currently still slumping.

Barcelona's problem is that they have become very dependent on Yamal. Although Yamal has not been a player who scores many goals consistently, he has been a player who can make many assists and can break down the opponents' defense. The Barcelona coach's strategy depends a lot on the trio Yamal, Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski in attack. And in defense they have had serious problems. In the last 6 games, Barcelona has conceded a goal in all 6 games.

We all know what the difference in points between Barcelona, Madrid and ATM. And we are all still very sure that the defeat is not the end of Barcelona's struggle.
The difference in points is very thin and Barcelona is one of the top teams that is still favored as a candidate holder of the title this season who will certainly try to correct the mistake.
On the one hand Hansi Flick will definitely not stop trying to see mistakes in the previous match. Because from the beginning the coach's joining had a positive impact and if in the near future he had problems, he would have seen more deeply where the problem was.
I am sure Hansi Flick only needs to look at the defense which has decreased slightly performance.

I think if Barcelona wins back to back, they will become one of the favorites for the championship again. I think it was a miracle that Barcelona fell to this point. Because they were way ahead of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the standings. They fell to the situation we are in today when they lost to small teams back to back and lost points. However, nothing is over and they will continue to fight until the end of the league.

Why would any team underrate a team like Barcelona? They are key contenders for the La Liga title regardless of their recent loss to Atletico Madrid bringing them to one win in five games. There are still more games to play and Barca still has the players to compete for the title. They will be playing with Getafe in the next La Liga game before then they will have some other games to prepare them for the La Liga. They need to start winning as soon as possible for them to remain title contenders. Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have an advantage since they have played one game lesser.

Barcelona was an effective team throughout the match, but sometimes you play very well and lose. The Atletico Madrid match was similar. Atletico Madrid defended very well and took advantage of the opportunities and scored two goals. They had 4 shots on target at Barcelona and both of them scored. Barcelona, ​​on the other hand, had many more chances but could only score one goal. This determined the fate of the game.

Well, this is the problem that makes Barcelona start to be underestimated, one win in seven matches in La Liga indicates that they are starting to lose their ability to beat their opponents. Hansi Flick must try to end the bad run of results before it is too late, they still have a chance to catch up on the points deficit from Real Madrid and Atletico.
The second half of the season must be used to change things for the better, I am sure Hansi Flick is capable of doing so based on his successful experience with his previous clubs.

Barcelona have not lost their chance to win the title this season, but they have to be able to recover quickly so that they can get the points they have not gotten in several games. If they can't do that, then I won't be surprised when they see themselves far behind their two rivals in LaLiga. They are now 3 points away from Atletico Madrid and 2 points away from Real Madrid, but the 2 teams above them still have 1 game in hand. That means they are also still in danger of being left even further behind in terms of points. The threat is also close, how Atletico Bilbao are also waiting for the time to shift them in the standings.

Barcelona should not be underestimated by any of their opponents in La Liga including Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, especially if Barcelona's points are still quite close to the two teams. However, the problem is not about underestimating Barcelona, ​​but it is more about the level of consistency and focus of their own players in achieving the target of victory in each match. Because if Barcelona can continue to lose without any improvement from the previous match to the next match, it is not impossible that Barcelona will continue to be left behind by Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid this season. So before it's too late, it would be good for Barcelona to immediately fix the things they need to fix from now on.

The result of that match was indeed very unique because it was unexpected that a team that played well could be defeated by a team that played less well and this was very surprising for some people because Barcelona should have been able to score a lot of goals but in fact Barcelona couldn't make the most of the opportunities. but of course in that match I saw that Flick lost his strategy and I saw that Simeone's technique was better because of course Simeone also saw that Barcelona was a strong and dangerous team. Of course, if Atletico Madrid's defense line was not strong then it would definitely be difficult for Atletico Madrid to win. stole points from Barcelona, ​​that's why I saw that in that match, Atletico Madrid defense was really good, even though Barcelona could penetrate it, it was a bit of a problem for Barcelona and as a result we can see that Raphinha always failed to score goals and couldn't make the most of opportunities. The formation Simeone uses is always good, like the 4-4-2 used by Atletico Madrid. I think it is very good compared to the formation used by Barcelona.

In my opinion, most of it is not luck that makes Atletico Madrid win, but I see that Atletico Madrid's technique is better than Barcelona's, so it's not surprising that so far they have won a lot because in terms of exploiting opportunities, they are always good and unfortunately Barcelona doesn't have that even though they have good players. strong. But yes, now Simeone has succeeded in bringing Atletico Madrid to the top of the standings and this is definitely a joy for Simeone and Simeone will definitely try to continue to sit at the top of the standings.

Nothing to add here really as you are on point. This is when people go by the numbers too much as everyone could see that Mbappe was struggling a lot. That is why they let him take all the penalties, which helped him get a feeling for success and gain some confidence. Ronaldo was on top of things very quickly. What made me nervous in the first few weeks at Real Madrid was his physical presence on the field, his body language. He didn't have this passion in his eyes that he is about to do something big the next moment. Ronaldo was absolutely confident about himself and went for it immediately.

I think slowly but surely Mbappe is arriving but I would have never thought it could take him a few months until he finally can show what he is able to do. But yes it seems to be a different world for him and to some degree it is understandable as Ligue 1 is kindergarten when you play for PSG. But still he is Mbappe and I thought he could be able to break records in his first season and conquer the hearts of the fans, but so far that isn't what's going on.

As long as Barcelona still has a fairly close distance with Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, they still have a chance to fight for the La Liga trophy this season, therefore Barcelona must improve their performance before they fall further behind them, Barcelona is not a club that can be underestimated, they have quality players who can play well if they really focus on achieving their goals.

Though Barcelona may be experiencing a slight dip in form in the La Liga, I still believe that they have the quality and determination to return to winning ways despite their recent struggle. Barcelona is not a team I will ever underrate in any competition. They can fight for this seasons La Liga trophy and with consistency, they should be able to regain momentum back and stay competitive.

Come on, Guys it's just a luck matter. Atlactico Madrid has won it on luck because from the beginning of the match, Barcelona played such an impressive game. They did all of their best to get the goals but due to the lack of finishing skill, they messed it up. But anyway, the results were quite surprising because all of the people were really in the hope that Barcelona would be the victorious, but at the end Atlactico Madrid have taken the victory.
 
Honestly, Barcelona tried their best, but fate did not support them, and ultimately Barcelona lost the match, and due to the impact of this match Barcelona declined to 3rd place. Barcelona should put more emphasis on their attacking spots. Like Robert Lewandowski, he should not miss anymore, he needs to finish clinically. If the team puts more emphasis on scoring this miss spot opportunity, then possibly Barcelona can get a place in the top spot once to make the league competitive.

Atletico Madrid are strong contenders for this season’s title. They’ve had series of impressive wins including the win over Barcelona that made them sit at the top of the league standings. It would be unwise to count Barcelona out of the title race because of some poor performance of late. Barcelona still posses a threat in the league and still have the quality of players and depth to be able to win this season laliga trophy despite of their poor performance.
