Barcelona fans can never be disappointed with their team for a longer time and this was proved when Barcelona beat Atletico Madrid by 4-2 to achieve the 5 games victory run against Diego Simeone’s team on Sunday. This helped Barcelona reach the top 4 after failing to do so in the three rounds. Later Real Madrid also made sure to increase its gap at the top in the points table by beating Granada with a score of 1-0.
Atletico Madrid has always been known for it’s one of the best defensive sides but it still failed to stop Barcelona despite their lead in the inception of the match and Barcelona playing with just 10 players as Dani Alves was sent back to the pavilion due to stepping his foot on Yannick Carrasco’s back from behind. It was the first time that Luis Suarez was playing in front of the Barcelona crowd after joining Atletico Madrid. Barcelona, on the other hand, hung on for the win, which might be a watershed moment in what has been a difficult season thus far. Against the reigning champions, it was a crucial victory, according to Xavi. This can be considered as one of the most challenging and best seasons as well considering some matches. Now they are two points behind third-place Real Betis and nine points behind second-place Sevilla. With a game in hand, Barcelona sits 15 points behind Madrid.
