I think Girona can still secure the top three positions in the standings for this season because the team is seven points adrift of Atletico Madrid who are in the top four. Apart from that, Girona's opportunity to regain second place from Barcelona is still wide open after Barcelona lost again at home to Real Madrid yesterday and caused them to lose points. And I actually don't have much doubt about Girona's performance to get back to a better position this season, but Barcelona will also try to maintain its current position until the end of the season.
Girona are capable of handling the responsibilities of executing good jobs for the team, it's been a tremendous moment and having the club hits for more goals to be reach this season. Girona single-handedly ruined their golden opportunities of lifting the La Liga title this season, you know why? They failed to win Real Madrid which is the only means of accessing stable #1 position. There's no atom of doubt, Girona will make it to the top four as they're currently ranked 3rd position on the La Liga table.

Girona is only targeting a top 4 place which I think they will try for in the remaining games this season. Apart from that, of course Barcelona will maintain second place until the end of the season, indeed Barcelona current condition is unstable in Laliga because they just lost points when facing Real Madrid. Barcelona and Girona are only separated by 2 points so there is an opportunity for Girona to overtake Barcelona in the coming weeks. However, if you compare the performance between Barcelona and Girona, of course Barcelona is still quite strong compared to Girona. The meeting of these two teams will certainly be the difference between the two on the standings because whoever is the winner will definitely have a big chance to end the season in second place in the standings.

I don’t think Girona are all that bad at their play. For a team that have only got about 5years of playing senior football and are playing at this standard and there stands on the league table, Girona is doing okay. I wouldn’t expect so much of them given the likes of Atlectico Madrid, Athletic Club that are some of the top class way behind them in the league right now.

It's obvious they wantes to pull Bayern Leverkusen in Laliga but Real Madrid came all the way from back and pushed them away and ever since they loss thier first match to Real Madrid, they lose the ability to continue to score. Their games now look like people that a magic was used on, they didn't just drop from first place, Barcelona came and dethrone them from the second place and now they have to deal with that spot for the rest of the season.

Quote
For Atlectico Madrid, they’ve always revolves there games about getting few goals and concentrating on the defense to keep it and that’s way too difficult to archive these days, having to keep a lead. When not in the lead, you could always find a set of frustrating players who let everything get to them. Girona aren’t so bad and they’ve got the top scorer in their team.


Atletico Madrid are just lucky team that got their ways at the top of Laliga, with how they ended their match with Dortmund in the Champions League, you will know they are not that good, after that they also loss their next match to a team that is under 10th place in the standing. I think these teams are behaving unseriously because they know that the season is for Real Madrid since even Barcelona can't reach them again.

Girona's current situation is still uncertain especially with the current performance declining, it will be difficult if in the remaining 6 matches now it will be favorable for them especially if you look at the schedule that will be implemented Barcelona and Girona will still meet so that it can be a determination of who will deserve to be in position 2 at the end of the season.

In terms of quality even though for the first match Barcelona lost to Girona but still they are still the favorites and Girona will only be in the third position option for this season but indeed if the impressive performance can return Girona get then indeed there could be a chance to win again against Barcelona for the match later but clearly I still feel for position 2 it is still held by Barcelona and position 3 belongs to Girona because it has also become a good thing for Girona.

Apart from that, if you look at the teams competing for the top 4 positions where Bilbao still has a big chance of overtaking Atletico Madrid. I estimate that Atletico Madrid is in quite big danger because the defeat they experienced against Alaves was certainly beyond many people's expectations. So, if Atletico makes another mistake then Bilbao has a big chance of moving up to 4th place.

This was an incredible match, to be honest. Barcelona actually had the lead at one point. But it did not last for long. Barcelona started the scoring. But ended up giving away a penalty after 12 minutes of scoring. Barcelona was able to score again in the 69th minute and Real Madrid again scored in the 73rd minute of the match. And when it looked like the match might end in a draw, Real Madrid sealed the coffin by scoring in injury time,
and guess who scored the decisive goal?
It was Jude Bellingham.  Grin

At this point, this guy is literally challenging Zidane being the best midfielder in the world. Great performance from Real Madrid. But I genuinely thought that Barcelona probably deserved a point from this match. But also Real Madrid did not deserve to not get a win in this match.
I think everyone should admit that real Madrid played incredible and that's why they get the UCL and league game and important three points too, but just like you and everyone except Barcelona to at least took lead in league table as because due to some unfair decision from refree in UCL they already got knocked out so that match has more importance for them because through that they can get the momentum to move ahead of the table as real Madrid will be focused more on UCL so may be possibly they will lose some points but unfortunately things goes all against Barcelona and they are out of everywhere. Hope after new manger or may be transfer of halland will make difference in thier results

It is a good game with quite a lot of action, but it is not over yet. Ball possession shifted slightly in favor of Barcelona, but we will see whether they can turn it into an advantage. So far both teams are about equally dangerous, but it looks as if Barcelona has a bit more control and they got a lot of corners, but couldn't convert them.

Good speed by both teams and the young Barcelona players are interesting to watch. There are some good talents in the team now. Could be Barcelona's future for sure.

You underestimate El classico, like you did consider statistics in this kind of match when two teams are always aggressive towards each other with primary aims and objectives to score goal, statistics doesn't count much unless for short on targets and shorts on goals. Bellingham Real Madrid the lead and they have covered their eyes in shame both in home and away this season, we now know who the real kings of Spain are and who are truly the king of Laliga.

With 6 games to go in Laliga, even if Barcelona used Magic for the rest of the match even though we know that it's unachievable, there is no way that any team is going to overtake Real Madrid right now, it's too early to make an announcement for them but if Real Madrid is able to win their next two games without suffering any loss, they will be force to announce as the winners.

I never underestimate El Clasico, I only know that the quality of these clasicos has nothing to do with the clasicos from 10 years ago.

The kings of La Liga had no chance against Barcelona last season, or did they? It does depend on the team quality and right now Real Madrid is the superior team. Barcelona will still need some time to build a new world class team from the ground up, but thinking about the players they lost over the last 5 to seven years, it was literally not possible for them to build a team of the same quality.

Real Madrid has done some great work in signing players like Bellingham and Vinicius Junior and some others.

The only way to encouraging Girona is for them to continue to win any match that comes there way, even if they manage to overtake Barcelona, it still doesn't make them any special except for the price of been in the second place and that's going to be money, and there is no way that money will be valuable like winning the league because it will be there forever in history but nobody talk about second place in the history, just title winners.

Bellingham is a beast, that's a fact. As far as I can see he is the most consistent great performing player in the squad this season. I remember only few games in which he wasn't seen showing a good performance. For example the first leg of the Manchester City matchup. I believe he has paid off his huge transfer fee already now with this high level performance.  Smiley

He is still very young on one hand. Real Madrid must be planning a very long term relationship with him and Bellingham looks very happy to be a part of this team too. Who wouldn't be happy to play for one of the best teams in the world, especially for Real Madrid which is in a really special place for talented players?  Wink
He is definitely contributing a huge share to their success. I mean his goal statistics at the beginning of the season were so insane that I was afraid he could keep up that level forever! Cheesy Good news is he is just a human being and didn't score as much for quite a while, but he is still the guy for the very important moments and first and foremost, he is working so hard on the pitch! I don't know, I have never checked for their running distances, but it feels like he is omnipresent and never sleeping. It is a tackle, a pass, a deep run into the opponent's box, a deep run to his own box to defend despite playing as a center forward. Hats off, he is one of the few very, very young players who deserved their starting position in a world class team within no time! There is no discussion about him.
Jude Bellingham is one of the most impact player in this season which having great influence on Real Madrid win and increase in quality as well his presence is having positive change for the Real Madrid, and currently he is having second spot in leading scorer for the season as well he is young and quality player which is having great future in this club with this season is going to be amazing for them while they are having huge success.

With his contribution in the game and having performance like this we can say he is playmaker, and surely he deserves the best player of the Real Madrid with his contribution in the game no one having doubt he could be wonder kid in coming years who could be going to have too many awards and respect as player.

Even though Girona are only 2 points below Barcelona, I don’t think Barcelona will like to lose that hope on them being the second in the table because Real Madrid are not even close to them becoming 11 points, but I know in the remaining 6 games Barcelona will try their possible best to be at the second in the table, but seeing their opponents that they will play in the up coming game, I think Girona will have more hope than Barcelona because of their own performance and that of their opponents. 

But still, Barcelona will try their best, and I know they won’t still be able to get the La Liga trophy this season, so I think if they increase their performance, they will try at least to go further in the league. 
Because in yesterday's match Barcelona lost again at home to Real Madrid, in the future Girona must also be able to do the same thing as Real Madrid did against Barcelona in the remaining matches this season. Because Girona will also host Barcelona at the start of next month or after Barcelona hosts Valencia at home at the end of this month. And right now I think Barcelona still has to fight harder for second place in the La Liga standings because the distance of two points is something that is not safe enough for them if they look at the opponents that Girona will face in the remainder of this season.
Barcelona lost the game but their quality and performance was at the top which is positive point for them and as they play now we can expect they will be well control until last game of the season and will give their best for keeping second spot while Girona is having not good time while they are having in early half of the season because in last few games they are having 5 loses and 4 wins which is clearly giving how bad they are now while we are having end of the season and things were well settled for them in early half of the season.

Next three games are surely going to be decisive for the Barcelona as they are able to keep this second spot, or they will lose his fight to Girona with Valencia and Real Sociedad at home and then Girona in away game are going to have big impact for their chances, and they needed to be won in these all games for their best end.

On the one hand, Barcelona will continue to go in a circle “fire a weak coach -> take on a former player in the hope of a miracle -> get poor results”, on the other hand, it is unclear whether they have a choice. I can’t say that I’m looking for news about Barcelona separately, but lately there’s been very little of it, I’m interested to know how things are developing with their difficult financial situation and that referee bribery scandal. If these problems have not yet been resolved, then Barcelona simply has no other options.

Barca President Joan Laporta has not hidden his desire for Xavi to continue with the club next season. But it seems the Spanish international wants to take a break or seek new challenges somewhere else. And the recent poor run of Barca might also force Xabi to leave the club. Before now coaches like Roberto De Zerbi and Hansi Flick have been on the radar of the club but it seems their search has stopped. Barca's financial problems will always affect their ability to get a good coach. As it stands now, the club might not be able to afford an expensive coach. So I was not surprised when the news broke out that he might be replaced by another former player Rafa Marquez because he would be cheap to hire. The Mexican is currently in charge of the reserve team of the club which means he might be instrumental to the building of young players and transferring them to the senior football team.
Especially considering that Xabi and Motta's careers are positive, Barça may want to try Marquez for a while. Moreover, they will get a coach for free, exactly what they want. It is very difficult to predict when they will get out of this economic trouble. It's a pity that the La Liga legend's level dropped because he was in financial trouble. I don't know what they would do if it wasn't for Yamal, because they don't have the financial power to transfer new players.

It is 100% a goal, there is absolutely not even a doubt that it was a goal, and to be fair it is really a shame that goal line technology is seen as not needed, this is the league, where the team that played the game had a BILLION DOLLARS worth stadium, and yet they did not have goal line technology. It is really a shame that we are not even using VAR to check the goal, it is really a shame that we have to watch games where things that are referee mistakes that decide the game even to this day.

I cannot wait to see when AI takes over the referee situation, there doesn't need to be a person, we just need to put hundreds of cams everywhere at every angle, and feed an AI should just make sure that things are looking good.

Jude Bellingham's stats so far this season in La Liga is 25 appearances, 17 goals and 4 assists. Meanwhile, Jude Bellingham scored 4 goals and 4 assists in 8 appearances in the Champions League. Of course, it is a statistic that is historically important in Jude Bellingham's career.
Permit me to say that he is the best signing of this season for Real Madrid and for Laliga in general. He played above our expectations and always gives the expected results to the fans at the right time. With him in Madrid team, they can win the Champions League trophy this season; with him and players like Vinicius, Rodrygo, and others, they can brake any team’s defense and they also have a good defense that will defend the team.

I will not talk about the quality of the two teams in El Clasico and everyone also knows that Barcelona is too far away for the season from Real Madrid and there is no chance of them winning other than continuing to lose every time they meet. However, I want to talk about a player who is rarely talked about and who also won for Real Madrid in the El Clasico match, namely Lucas Vazquez. Even though in the end he didn't become MVP, at least what he did for the team's victory was very real and had a big influence on Real Madrid in locking the La Liga title through this El Clasico match.

We know that he was a player who initially played as RWF but since Ancelotti's cold hands, his position was changed to RB and at the same time became Dani Carvajal's back-up. Last night he played as a starter and how he became the player who contributed the most was seen from the opportunities he created. From being the player who had to be brought down in the penalty box, to scoring 1 goal and 1 assist for Real Madrid's victory. There is no doubt about his mentality, especially in the previous match in the Champions League against Manchester City, he still had time to juggle the ball before kicking the ball. His contract will end in June next summer and I hope Real Madrid will still extend his contract for another season.
Lucas Vazquez and vinicius junior have been consistent with their ability to deliver in matches for Real Madrid sometimes now, especially Lucas Vazquez, even when Ronaldo and benzema were there, Lucas Vazquez will come from the bench and deliver either scoring the winning goal or gives assist, he has been playing a pivotal role in the Madrid attack force. One thing with players like Lucas Vazquez is that after leaving Real Madrid to another club, they do not perform optimumly like they used to in Madrid, I feel they just go under the radar and nobody notices them again.

If you look at the way the players of Real Madrid play in every match, you will love to watch them over and over again because they play with all their mind which shows the love they have for the club they play for, Vinicuious Junior, Lucas Vazquez and the rest of the Real Madrid players has been so good because they play to win in every match they play because of their love for the club. Even when the players you mentioned were in the club and the current players now didn't have the opportunity to shine, still they were still doing their best when they had the opportunity to perform but right now, they have done so well for themselves in the club because truly they have shown that they are the future of the club since they are able to hold the good form of the team going and they have added more forces on the attack of the team especially Vinicious Junior.
If it's about their performance, the Madrid forwards have been really trying but am querying some of the players inability to perform same when they leave Madrid, its as if Madrid has a way of bringing the best in every player, I remember when isco and Raphael varane where still in Madrid, there performance where exceptionally brilliant but today I can barely even noitce if the dou are still playing football or not. I feel Madrid has a way of putting you on the world stage and bringing out the best in you.

It's undeniable that this season has been a good one for Jude, as he made the right choice to stay at Madrid, as he has managed to bring Madrid back to form after a worrying start to the season when several of his players left, and he has also become one of the players whose popularity and performance has increased even though this is his first season at Madrid.

His role in Dortmund and in Madrid is different because previously he was made a playmaker but Ancelotti bravely kept Jude as a Second Striker and in my opinion it was a very successful strategy to do.
Hopefully this will not only last for one season because his story in Madrid has just begun and next season of course he will have to fight harder with other players because looking at the situation it looks like there will be several players leaving next season and inevitably Madrid will have to adapt to new players and the remaining old players must be more solid to make Madrid not falter with the reshuffle of the players.
I'm really pleased with how Jude Bellingham has had a big impact on the team this season. It seems as if he is not a new player brought in by Real Madrid this season through his performance, he is like a player with a lot of experience in his first season. An attacking midfielder has been the difference for the whole game, but I also can't ignore how great Vinicius has been this season.

Real Madrid definitely deserved to cheer this season by winning the La Liga title, but I still have a bit of worry about the Champions League title. La Liga seems to belong to Real Madrid after beating Barcelona with a score of 3-2, so now the main focus is on the Champions League.

Jude Bellingham's stats so far this season in La Liga is 25 appearances, 17 goals and 4 assists. Meanwhile, Jude Bellingham scored 4 goals and 4 assists in 8 appearances in the Champions League. Of course, it is a statistic that is historically important in Jude Bellingham's career.

Alaves unexpectedly defeated Atletico Madrid at home.The fact that Alaves are in the relegation zone may have played a big part in this win.With this win, they had the chance to open the gap between them and Athletic Bilbao.Atletico Madrid are in a race for 4th place with Athletic Bilbao.For this reason, Atletico Madrid have no chance and luxury to lose points after this week. For this reason, Atletico Madrid has no chance and luxury to lose points after this week.Although they played dominantly in the match for Atletico Madrid, this result did not suit them.They should have at least got a draw from this match.
Real Madrid managed to win in the derby.If Barcelona could have won this match, maybe everything would have been different for them.I can say that the 3 points gained from this match are worth gold for Real Madrid, which is now counting days to complete the season as champion.Unfortunately, there were also controversial positions in the match where both teams had plenty of positions.If we leave these behind, I think that both teams showed a good struggle.

With Barcelona and Real Madrid playing against each other, Girona had another chance to overtake Barcelona.  Because Real Madrid won this match, Barcelona lost 3 points and now there is only 2 points difference between Girona and Barcelona.  A win for Girona in their next match will see them move past Barcelona. this is good news for them. However, Real Madrid's match against Barcelona was very enjoyable
Barcelona has played 32 games, so does Girona. Barca's point is 70, Girona's 68. Since they have played the same number of games, if Girona wins, their move will only be temporary because if Barca wins its 33th game, Girona will move down. But overall, Girona has a very good chance to be number 2 in La Liga, they have to use this bad moment of Barcelona and try their best to win every possible match. Barca is in a very bad mood right now, they experience failure after failure. This failure should make them motivated but I think it will break them mentally, especially Xavi because he experiences too much pressure from everywhere.

He is still very young on one hand. Real Madrid must be planning a very long term relationship with him and Bellingham looks very happy to be a part of this team too. Who wouldn't be happy to play for one of the best teams in the world, especially for Real Madrid which is in a really special place for talented players?  Wink
Since he was brought in from Borussia Dortmund last season, he was able to adapt quickly to the Real Madrid squad, and he even became the difference for his team several times. He is always there when Real Madrid needs a player who can make a difference. Bellingham is still young now, he has a bright future and he is in a big team. On the other hand, for Real Madrid they also have a bright future by having a player like Bellingham.
Real Madrid is very sharp when they target young players, and it has been proven that some of the young players they currently have can play very well. They really understand how to apply the strategies given by the coach so that they are always successful in every match. With their current squad they have also reached the semifinals and they are expected to be in the final and even before that they beat Manchester City who are considered the team that has the biggest chance in the Champions League this season.
Bellingham is at a very high level and, as you said, he is a young player. He adapted to Real Madrid as soon as he came to Dortmund. He always stood out in the most important matches. Real Madrid with Bellingham will be even better in the coming years. It was a great blessing for Girona. Barcelona's loss, they lost the first place to Real Madrid, but maybe they can take back the second place from Barcelona in this case. We left behind another solid El-Clasico, with only one position and goal left in mind.

Almeria have secured their relegation with certainty.We can say that they were able to do what they wanted to do in terms of causing difficulties to their opponents because now they have a clear head.Perhaps they plan to plan for the next season with the way they will fight in the remaining weeks.I think Almeria played better than their opponents but they struggled to find goals because of the difference in experience.Of course, it is not normal for Almeria to be so statistically superior to a team like Villarreal.Villarreal was lucky to find the winning goal in the last minutes.

For the referee scandal, they simply don't have a case. They've not even been charged to court despite all these allegations. I feel like that's a vendetta against Barcelona. ~

I think there was definitely corruption in the affairs of Barcelona, the only question is how criminal. The problem is that no one is interested in this, but UEFA is using this case as pressure on Barcelona (as the founder of the Super League) for its own benefit.
Therefore, all these matters only irritate me - there will never be justice, but only an agreement between dirty businessmen.
It is thought-provoking that Barcelona, ​​which is struggling with economic problems, has still not recovered. How can they still be in debt even though they earn serious income every year? They brought important names from La Masia to the team and avoided serious transfer expenses, but it is very strange that they are still dealing with economic problems.
