New challenge is up guys, go take your pick.
We have a great game in LaLiga this week, Betis vs. Barcelona which should give us a lot of answers regarding final positions. I am expecting a though game with couple of goals and probably a point for each team.

Well there are 4 dates left and everything is still open in this League, obviously taking out the champion.
Let's see how Villarreal focus on the tournament again as they need to enter Europe again after their magical participation in this year's Champions League.

Imagine winning the Europa League against Manchester United in one season, then getting to the semifinals of Champions League in the next season, and then finding that you may not even be in Europa the following season. Villarreal need to get 2 wins and hope Sociedad lose 1 game to get into the Europa qualification spot but now they have nothing left to fight for they should have full motivations.
Barca need 1 win and 1 draw to guarantee UCL, I'll rest easy if they win a tough match against Betis, which should help Villarreal's cause anyway!

Getafe vs Real Betis is an interesting match we need to watch to know who will go far in this tournament. I believe Real Betis will defeat Getafe team 2-1 for the favour of Betis team because their performance is very good compare to Getafe which their strikers are still lacking in the areas of achieving early goals from any match in this season. I think it will be difficult for Getafe to defeat Betis in this match because Betis players are very ready to achieve many goals from this match to improve their points.

Yeah tomahawk9 well done man, go and celebrate, you and your team totally deserve this.
Shame to Atletico for such a poor defence of the title. Shame to Barca for allowing their club to become an ineffective challenger. Shame to Sevilla for choking (as usual).
This was also my personal highlight. So much love for that boy/man.

About Barca win tonight - finally. It looked that we can win confident, but that Mallorca goal in 2nd half didn't let to have calm ending. Good to see Fati back, I hope that this time it will be for long.

Didn't came to forum yesterday, so better do it now than never. Congratulations to our main Madridista @tomahawk9 with Real taking title officially. Difficult to say these words for me, but well deserved.

And forgot to say it yesterday - probably it's time for me to stop backing Villarreal even when they play against bottom teams. They simply can't play in La Liga and Champions league a the same time and I'm surprised that they're still in fight for spot in UEFA tournament.

the person who will most likely win the yellow cap in this round predicted four correct scores so far and all of them were 1-1 draws... yeah, someone actually had the balls to predict four draws 
well done! 👏
And probably none of these 4 draws weren't big surprise, but yeah, you need to have some balls to predict four 1:1 draws in one round. well done! 👏

well done! 👏one more match to go, Barca is playing Mallorca, after two 0:1 home matches, will be interesting to see how they will go through tonight, expecting goals
Barcelona could lose or draw their remaining games and i'm 99% sure they'd finish 2nd in the league. Sevilla and Atletico are so bad this season they could face each other tomorrow and somehow both teams would lose the game, absolute crap May 01, 2022, 01:56:32 PM
Casper, real interesting to point out and I would never have guessed Valencia were late shows specialists... Isn't Real doing that a lot this season though? Possibly even last season.
Always thought EPL was the favourites of clutch players but Benzema has been redefining La Liga... Or Real.

yeah, I think that Real is getting their points by Benzema in last fifteen minutes
did not read or checked, but I have a feeling that within 75 minutes Real would be middle table, so many last minute wins that I remember, Sevilla was the last one
one more match to go, Barca is playing Mallorca, after two 0:1 home matches, will be interesting to see how they will go through tonight, expecting goals

i remember the Valencia derby, one of the best games this season for sure, but now the stakes are super high in this next derby. Tbh, I'd like to see Levante winning this game, just to make the relegation battle more interesting. Cadiz dropped points today so this is a great chance for Levante to get little a bit closer to 17th place

as a Valencia fan, I was on Levante side during the match, we basically had one shot on goal, and that was enough to lead all the way till 80 minutes, when we conceived goal and got draw in the end
did not checked exactly, but read that Valencia conceived most goals between 75 and 90 minutes, and that we would be in top4 if matches were 75 minutes, is it that hard to keep running after 75 minutes?
nevertheless, lost cup final is worse than this today

Sevilla are obssessed with giving up 2nd place, what a bunch of chokers, they're making it too easy for Barcelona and Atletico
Now watch those teams two drop points this weekend, ffs!
get ready for 'a fierce battle to not finish in top 4' (we premier league now lol), painful to watch if you're a fan, but it's top entertainment if you're a neutral Anyway, best of luck this weekend, guys!

Athletic - Atletico, maybe it won't be most beautiful game to watch, but it sounds interesting.

Incredible how once again Sevilla leaves points on the road without need, also incredible about Cadiz taking out a lot of "unexpected" points in recent weeks, like the 3 against Barcelona and this tie itself. It leaves them in a good position to continue fighting for permanence and with very high morale.
April 29, 2022, 05:32:47 PM
new round in Spain, and we have Sevilla tonight
they usually perform on Friday, and not on Monday, so home win should be expected, although it is a local Andalusian derby with Cadiz
there is no matches that look as "great to watch" this weekend, but Valencia city derby should be good and duel between Athletic and Atletico as well
Espanyol could use Real position to get a point maybe, what others think?
And offcourse Sevilla failed to win game where they were obvious favorites. Didn't watched game in full. but from what I saw, Sevilla didn't looked much better than Cadiz. If Barca and Sevilla will continue to eprform like now, Real is going to win league by 20 points, what will be humiliating.they usually perform on Friday, and not on Monday, so home win should be expected, although it is a local Andalusian derby with Cadiz

Man guys I know it's not La Liga but I really really want Real to perform today, so we can meet them in the final, and Villareal to NOT perform tomorrow so we can meet Real in the final haha.
I probably shouldn't put more money than I already have on them (ML) so am a bit relieved odds are going down (I got them as high as 7.38), today was as low as 5.8 but now back to 6.3 so I'm hoping that's just because people are betting more and more money on City lines.
Am also reading about PSG ultras not even celebrating the title with their team. I mean, I totally get it. Fans can get disenchanted and if they're angry, they're angry, it's probably better to walk out than to go to the extent of attacking players like in Marseille during training, or like the ftards behind the Maguire bomb thing. Nothing can justify that. But yeah, even for me to attend a full game at Anfield in 2016, still needed to convince a season ticket holder (who couldn't attend) with a semi KYC on me haha. Which I totally understood and did absolutely.

It could never happen since Liverpool supporters would not sell their tickets to opposing supporters that easy. I don't blame the club for this situation that much. They were selling the tickets directly and trough some agencies. All Barca tickets are transferable and Germans were willing to pay premium. They just bought a shitload of tickets from those agencies and Barca supporters that were not that interested in the game. I heard the tickets were going 3-4 times their initial price.

Sorry off topic but can't imagine the repercussions at Anfield if they allowed half the stadium to be filled with away fans.

^Oh huh, I had no idea that whole thing happened at Camp Nou (just reading about it now), but that's bordering ridiculous (although seriously, if only half the stadium was filled with away fans and Barca fans got drowned out by... Frankfurt... that's another issue to be had all together).
It does remind me of the last local game I watched in 1999 though. My state team, the serious underdogs, won a place in the final against the best team in the land... which wasn't even from our country. 100% short small local lads versus a foreign club full of European imports haha. But on request of the other team, afraid of our fans, the FA broke tradition and played the game in a stadium far away from us, where you'd need to fly to (this was 1990s, where not everyone could afford plane tickets, and well, in my own family, almost no one had ever flown before).
Still, it ended up the stadium was overflowing, with loads more camped outside, and the other team fans all sat in one small VIP section.
We still lost, 2-1, and after the riots, that stadium was never used again until today for an official football game heh.

Trouble in paradise all over again.
It's funny how Barcelona went from having a great season despite their horrendous start to the season, back to being horrible again, all in the space of a few games, and it all started with the lost to Frankfurt.

I'm just tearing my hair out man. It wasn't just about the Frankfurt loss, either, it was the anger from the fans that our club let our beloved stadium get overrun by the Germans. A total fiasco that reminded us just how bad and rotten our core of the club truly is and that it is far from getting fixed.
Shakes head, don't know what else to do.
April 25, 2022, 12:41:39 AM
Barca wasn't actually bad yesterday, they were unlucky. Rayo keeper was superb, Barca finishing was a bit off and Rayo scored the goal from their only shot in first 80 minutes. Too make things worse ref was quite bad and he agitated both teams. I don't know how that push towards the end of the game is not penalty.
That being said, Barca should never even be in sitation like this on theor own turf.

I would say that it's time to start thinking about upcoming season, it's not big difference we will finish 2nd or 3rd, but then I realized that with such perfromance we can drop out from Champions league spot.
@Harko described our season very well - from terrible to good and then terrible again. After all, our biggest achievement is beating Real 4:0 in Madrid. Sweet, but meaningless in general.
.
yep, but let's be completely honest here, winning the whole thing? really now? 
I mentioned it more like possibility, rather than real thing, but you never know

now that Real betis secured Europa League the 7th place in La liga will go to conference league. Bilbao and Villareal are the main candidates for that spot
Don't forget that Villarreal still can qualify to Champions league by winning this season Champions league . Jump to:
