Saturday night saw RCD Espanyol visit the Nou Camp for the Barcelona derby and also Pep Guardiola’s final match at the Nou Camp. With the pressure off the league, Barcelona were able to show what they can do with some great football and Barcelona’s 4 goals were all scored by Lionel Messi, further putting him ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo and likely to be the biggest goal scorer in the Spanish league this season.

Barcelona’s 3-1 win against Malaga

Posted on May 3rd, 2012 by admin

Barcelona beat Malaga last night with a goal from Puyol and three from Lionel Messi, who remains two ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo in their goal tally for the season. Madrid though took the league title after beating Athletic Bilbao in the Basque Country.

With Pep Guardiola leaving it marks the end of an era, but good luck to Tito Vilanova who takes over the reigns from him for next season.

Barcelona went into Saturday night’s match against Real Madrid with high hopes. Just four points behind their bitter rival, a win in el clasico would mean that the title was back within their reach with a single point between them.

However, it was not to be. Barcelona didn’t play their best football, perhaps tired after their Champions League match on Wednesday, which they also lost. Khedira opened the scoring in the 16th minute but despite dominating possession, the Catalans struggled to break through the Madrid defence.

When Alexis finally scored in the 69th minute things looked like they might at least leave Barcelona four points behind Madrid with a draw. However, that dream was bitterly smashed just three minutes later when Cristiano Ronaldo scored Madrid’s second goal.

Barcelona ended the weekend four points behind Real Madrid after both teams won their respective matches a week ahead of the clasico. Barcelona went a goal down on Saturday night against Levante, who have been enjoying a phenomenally successful season this year. However, two goals from Messi put the final score at 2-1.

Madrid beat Sporting Gijon, currently struggling in the relegation zone. Both sides play Champions League semi-finals this week before the big class on Saturday. If Barcelona win that they will be a single point behind Madrid.

Barcelona beats Zaragoza to close in on Madrid

Barcelona closed the gap with Madrid over the weekend after their 4-1 win against Zaragoza. Despite conceding the first goal Puyol, Messi and Pedro all scored.

On Sunday Real Madrid slipped when they drew 0-0 against Valencia. The title is looking much more within Barça’s grasp providing they win el clasico and Madrid loses one more game.
