Real Madrid had a tough 1-0 victory on Mallorca’s field to get close to the La Liga championship.

Tchouameni scored the only goal for Real Madrid

Due to having to prepare for the Champions League quarter-final return match against Man City in midweek, coach Carlo Ancelotti kept many pillars in the two upper lines as a guest of Mallorca. Therefore, despite dominating the ball, coach Ancelotti’s team encountered a tight defense on the home side Mallorca and had to accept not scoring in the first half. Real’s best chance was Jude’s long-range shot. Bellingham hit the crossbar in the 33rd minute.

Entering the second half, Real Madrid scored very early and was quite lucky. In the 48th minute, Tchouameni took a long shot and the ball hit a home player who changed direction, hitting Mallorca’s net. After the goal, Real actively played slowly and successfully defended the fragile 1-0 score.

Meanwhile, Barcelona did not give up easily as they also found a 1-0 victory on Cadiz’s field afterwards. In this match, Barcelona did not really dominate. They let Cadiz have many opportunities, but the home strikers all missed them. On the contrary, Barcelona found a way to break the deadlock thanks to the brilliance of its stars. In the 37th minute, from a situation where Barcelona received a corner kick, Felix beautifully volleyed and scored the only goal of the match.

At this time in La Liga, Real Madrid leads with 78 points after 31 rounds and Barcelona only has 70 points and ranks 2nd.
