SPAIN'S FALLEN GIANTS STAY NECK AND NECK
Barcelona botched a major opportunity to move five focuses away from Real Madrid when they were beaten on Sunday at the Santiago Bernabeu, with Zinedine Zidane's side now a point ahead.
The Catalans botched three major opportunities in the main half with Madrid taking control after the break, in the end triumphing because of objectives from Vinicius Junior and Mariano Diaz.
Neither Barcelona nor Madrid are near their best and this sketchy however engaging Clasico demonstrated it. There were mistakes in abundance, demonstrating that the sides are no longer on the top bar of Europe's world class.
Be that as it may, the household title race will keep on exciting, with practically nothing between these defective fallen mammoths.
LOPETEGUI HANGING BY A THREAD
Sevilla are third after their exciting triumph over Osasuna on Sunday yet mentor Julien Lopetegui stays under tension.
Fans approached him to leave after they scratched into the Europa League last 16 past Romanian side Cluj. Observers in the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan were stunned when Sevilla discarded a two-objective lead against 10 men Osasuna.
Lopetegui was spared by Youssef En-Nesyri, who wounded home in stoppage time. However, the inclination remains that any increasingly terrible outcomes could end the previous Spain and Real Madrid mentor's residency in Sevilla.
ELEVENTH TIME LUCKY
Athletic Bilbao's season has been based around their Copa del Rey charge.
On Thursday they visit Granada with a 1-0 semi-last first leg advantage, trusting they can book their spot in the last.
In any case, meanwhile their group execution has fell, with the group winless in 10 matches before Sunday's 1-0 triumph over Villarreal.
The triumph took them tenth and they are 12 focuses over the transfer zone with 12 matches to go, which means they can turn their consideration back to the cup.
Supporters have been pardoning - they last won the trophy in 1984 and flatware is a need, with the city seeking after an opportunity to get the celebrated 'la gabarra' pontoon out for a triumph march on the stream.
