Three penalties and an own goal.

This is Atleticos best shot at the title in ages. They've added Suarez, Felix stepping up and both Real and Barca are in shambles

4-1

Zidane about to be sacked the bald fraud.

His time as manager there is so weird. They've looked poor most of the times he's managed them in both spells, no discernible style of play and were knocked out the CL in the last 16 the last two seasons with a whimper. Yet he won 3 CL's in a row and won La Liga once in both spells.

A team that wins 3 CL's in a row should go down as an era defining team, but there was nothing memorable about them at all and they weren't even that good.

Agreed mate. He had Ronaldo and the likes of Modric and Kroos at the top of their games. He legged once he knew that team was getting past it.

Atletico are poor as well though. They've regressed massively from the teams that reached CL finals. Those teams would walk this league, as would any of Guardiola or Enrique's Barca sides or Mourinho's Real.

This was how La Liga used to be. That Rafa's Valencia or Deportivo or Atletico when Simeone was a player would step up and win the league when Barca and Real were both having poor seasons. Last season Barca and Real were both poor as well but were clear at the top. It could be more interesting this season, but there's not really a good team in the league. Sevilla you might think would challenge but they're never consistent domestically.

Well in Villareal, came from behind to earn a creditable 1-1 draw vs Real Madrid earlier today

5 minute highlights - https://ourmatch.me/21-11-2020-villarreal-vs-real-madrid

Hopefully Atletico vs Barcelona will be decent tonight (8pm ko) - even without Suarez (he tested positive for coronavirus whilst away with Uruguay)

Atletico XI: Oblak; Trippier, Savic, Giménez, Hermoso; Koke, Saúl, Llorente, Carrasco; Correa, João Félix.
Barca XI: Ter Stegen, Roberto, Piqué, Lenglet, Alba, Pjanic, De Jong, Pedri, Griezmann, Dembelé, Messi.

8pm ko.

That was horrendous defending and keeping there from Barce - they have fallen off a cliff after losing Coutinho - I know thats not going to be a popular statement on here, but Trincao/Dembele are a drop off both offensively and defensively

BarryCrocker · « **Reply #6449 on:** November 21, 2020, 10:00:34 pm »

1-0 win for AM over Barca. Piqué looks to have a serious knee injury.

Can't believe its Simeone's first win against Barca in La Liga.

Barca are 9 points behind Atletico with 1 extra game played, that’s season over for them.

That was a terrible game that deserved a 0-0.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are so mediocre these days.

This might be the year Atletico imo, they look better and more ready than Real and Barcelona.

Coutinho came on as a sub for Barca yesterday. Don't think they've lost him...

BarryCrocker · « **Reply #6456 on:** November 22, 2020, 11:20:23 pm »

Piqué out for 4-6 months with grade 3 sprain in the internal lateral ligament and partial injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

"lost" = injured; equally, as poor as Coutinho was after coming on, he was no worse than any other Barcelona player on the pitch, and they hadn't got the excuse of missing 4 weeks of the season with an injury. Even the GOAT was awful, except maybe one half decent moment in the first half.

How average Madrid are they are in a much better position than Barcelona. Barcelona are finished. Origi the culprit

Great seeing the demise of that club.

Going to be even greater to see when Messi leaves them how in the shit they will be, be interesting see how much of a chunk of commercial revenues and social media followers they'll lose 2-3 years down the line post Messi.

Never seen a club so dependent on and off the field because of one player.

When Messi leaves for free that will be the end of them. Griezmann is getting on. Coutinho hasn't settled and Dembele injury prone and not settled either. Pressure will all be on Fati, and he's not messi. They could be looking at a decade to get back to the top with the financial position they are in and their aging players.

Newly promoted Cadiz beat Barcelona 2-1 earlier today.

Barca didn't even mange a shot during the game (Cadiz scored an own goal for them) - www.theguardian.com/football/2020/dec/05/barcelona-cadiz-ronald-koeman-lionel-messi

After 10 league matches Barcelona are 7th, with 14 points, and 12 points off leaders Atletico. https://www.flashscore.co.uk/football/spain/laliga

Cadiz are currently 5th on 18 points - a top result vs Barcelona - well done and credit to them.

already 12 pts off Atletico. I can see Koeman being sacked by new year. To be fair to him though, it's not all his fault, he came in the worst time possible both in terms of squad quality and the dramas surrounding the club.

Atletico have a small team syndrome. I kinda wish we draw against them again to take revenge for last year, but we play like ass whenever we're drawn against either them or Sevilla.

'free header' something of an understatement; there wasn't a Barca defender in the same postal code...
