"Mallorca's catching up momentum is shocking! They have won eight consecutive games in the league, and only one point is left to Barcelona's nine-point gap! This reminds us of how they rushed to Real Madrid in the league last season. When the Champions League knockout season is about to rekindle, Mallorca narrowed the gap in the league to one point. Maybe they cannot win in a row next, but it can make Barcelona, ​​who ranks first in the standings, feel extremely trembling..."

However, Mallorca is also in trouble. La Liga teams rarely do not resist when they encounter Mallorca. Although Mallorca is very strong now, this also makes La Liga clubs want to use Mallorca to get a point or win to prove their abilities. In the next round of league, Mallorca was defended by Santander at home. After eighty-five minutes, they failed to score. Only in the eighty-eight minutes did they rely on Henry's supplementary shot in the penalty area to defeat his opponent, and achieved nine consecutive victories before the start of the Champions League knockout round.

Barcelona also came out of the shadow of being tied in the last round. They defeated Espanyol three to two in the Catalan derby, starting the Champions League knockout stage with a point advantage. Their opponent in the knockout round was Ligue 1 overlord Lyon, while Mallorca's opponent was Liverpool.

Guardiola also knew at this time that Barcelona must not be soft. If it is soft, Mallorca will become more aggressive. So even though the next one is the first leg of the Champions League, he still sent all the main players against Espanyol, and then won the opponent as he wished, continuing to maintain a point advantage against Mallorca.

"This kind of league is interesting."

Jose, who was heading for the UK, was thinking on the plane.

After meeting Liverpool for three consecutive years, Mallorca is already familiar with this team. Benitez's position at Liverpool is starting to be a little unstable, because he has never been able to make a breakthrough in recent years. The runner-up of the Champions League and the final four of the Champions League every year cannot meet the Liverpool executives. Liverpool executives are no longer patient with him. Benitez is also under tremendous pressure now.

If they can't compete with Mallorca at home, then when they go away, facing Mallorca who is very imposing recently, there will be no hope of winning.

In the end, Mallorca played 2-2 away with Liverpool. The goals of two wide players from Silva allowed Mallorca to escape from Anfield. Although he failed to win, the 2-2 draw allowed them to have enough advantage at home.

Barcelona tied Lyon 1-1 away. Among the other two teams participating in the Champions League knockout round, Real Madrid was miserably forced to two-to-two by Porto at home, while Villarreal tied with Panasinacos at home. Four La Liga teams participating in the Champions League were tied at the same time. This is the first time in the history of the Champions League...

Mallorca and Barcelona were very satisfied, while Real Madrid and Villarreal were quite dissatisfied, which shows how important the home advantage is.

The game will be held on March 11, during which time, Mallorca and Barcelona will play two rounds of league games, and their competition will continue.

In the 25th round of the league, Mallorca challenged Sporting Gijon away. After rotating some of the main players, they still relied on two goals from Balotelli and Klose to defeat Sporting Gijon 2-0 away, and won ten consecutive league wins.

Barcelona defeated Atletico Madrid four-3 away in a game and continued to lead Mallorca by one point.

In the 26th round of the league, Mallorca faced Real Betis, who was fighting for relegation at home. The tenacious Real Betis equalized the score three times when he was behind three times, but Mallorca still defeated Real Betis four-3 at home with Torres's final victory in the 81st minute, and won 11 consecutive league wins.

Barcelona defeated Athletic Bilbao cleanly and 2-0 at home and continued to lead the standings.

At the beginning of the second leg of the Champions League, both Mallorca and Barcelona won at home. Mallorca won one goal in the league, but showed extremely strong fighting spirit in the Champions League. Liverpool was tortured by injuries before the start of this round of Champions League, and even the team leader Gerald was unable to play due to injury. In this case, it is really doubtful how much combat effectiveness Liverpool can still play away.

Liverpool's defense collapsed after persisting for 30 minutes. Silva broke into the penalty area and passed the back point. Iniesta, who followed up, volleyed the ball and scored the first goal for Mallorca.

It was just one to zero, but ten minutes after the second half, when Alonso shot in the penalty area after the front shot to expand the score to 2 to zero, Liverpool already knew that most of them could not get more than one away ending...

In the 72nd minute, Martinez, who came on the bench, once again seized the shortcomings of Liverpool's lack of tight midfield protection, and expanded the lead advantage to three-to-zero with a volley at the front of the penalty area.

Before the final game, Balotelli locked the score at 4-0! Mallorca defeated Liverpool with a big score of 6-2 and advanced to the quarterfinals with his head held high!

Barcelona are not to be outdone. They have made the Ligue 1 overlord a sieve at home. The five-to-two score and the six-to-three total score make them not much better than Mallorca. Villarreal defeated Panasinacos 2-1 away and became the third La Liga team to enter the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

The most unlucky thing is the poor Real Madrid. They were forced to zero to zero by Porto who could not defend away. In the end, they were defeated by the disadvantage of few away goals and were eliminated in the quarterfinals for six consecutive years.

Juan Ramos's position has also begun to become precarious...

However, in the eyes of both Mallorca and Barcelona, ​​there is no Real Madrid anymore. In the league, they are seven points behind Mallorca and eight points behind Barcelona. Now Mallorca and Barcelona are like two survivors on the battlefield, holding weapons and staring at the opponent's vitals. However, they all know that this battle will not be decided until the last moment.

In the draw in the quarterfinals, Mallorca and Barcelona drew in a half-zone. Mallorca's opponent is Chelsea, while Barcelona's opponent is Bayern Munich. Both games will be a battle of dragons and tigers. Chelsea and Bayern are both new coaches this season, and the lineup is much more complete. If Mallorca and Barcelona want to meet in the semi-finals, they have to pass the qualities of these two opponents.

The strength of the other half of the zone is much clearer. Manchester United's opponent is Porto and Arsenal's opponent is Villarreal. If nothing unexpected happens, it is very likely that it is a British battle between Arsenal and Manchester United.

Before the quarter-finals final begin, Mallorca will face Espanyol, Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao in the league, while Barcelona's opponents are Almeria, Malaga and Valladolid. Barcelona's opponents seem to be weaker, but at this critical moment, neither Mallorca nor Barcelona will be willing to fall behind in the middle, because if they fall behind, it will be difficult to get back in the next time.

Now it’s time to grit your teeth and compare perseverance, fighting spirit, and state. No one can easily win the championship, and no one can think that their opponents will fall behind in the middle. The gap in this point may last for a long time until Mallorca’s home match against Barcelona on May 18th...

Before that, the semi-finals of the Champions League will end. Who would not be excited about such a battle for a season? Who would not be excited? Who would not be excited? Who would not be happy when he saw the last one laughing and said, is Mallorca, who has swept the eight deserts in the past few years, and is it that he suddenly performed extremely top-notch and almost unbeaten Barcelona this season?

At the end of the season, everything will be revealed, and now one victory after another is carried out for the final decisive battle!

On March 15, in the 27th round of the league, Mallorca challenged Espanyol away, while Barcelona also challenged Almeria away.

During this game, it was surprising that many Barcelona fans flocked to the home court of their city rival Espanyol and began to cheer for Espanyol loudly. They hope that Espanyol can block Mallorca. Even if Espanyol is at the bottom of the points, it is very likely to be relegated. If Espanyol is relegated and Mallorca is lost by Barcelona, ​​it will make a choice between the goal of living in La Liga, which is "making trouble with Barcelona and relegation". The Barcelona fans of Espanyol who will not hesitate to support Espanyol defeat Mallorca and help Barcelona reach a big distance!

They were cheering for Espanyol hard, and facing the pressure of relegation, Espanyol also performed extremely well. They kept harassing Mallorca's defense line through defensive counterattacks, leading in the tenth minute of the first half, leading again in the fifth minute of the second half, equalizing the score in the 78th minute of the game...

However, in a three-to-three draw, Torres stood up. He drifted past a defender in the penalty area and then made a quick shot from the far corner. Four-to-three, Mallorca defeated Espanyol 4-3 away in a heart-wrenching game, and left Catalonia with a winning attitude!

Barcelona fans failed to leave the home court of the same city's mortal enemy. They came to support the same city for the first time, but the same city's mortal enemy still failed to help them...

"Go downgrade, these bastards who are useless at all!"

Many Barcelona fans scolded angrily when leaving the stadium. The conflict would inevitably occur after being heard by the already annoyed Espanyol fans. However, most Barcelona fans are still very wise because their team defeated Almeria twice away and still led Mallorca with one point advantage.

In the 27th round of the league, Mallorca won 22 and 5 draws remain unbeaten, while Barcelona won 23 and 3 draws and one loss. This result is terrifying. You should know that the gap between Real Madrid and them has been widened to 11 points and 12 points. Such a good state will indeed make those catching up feel desperate...
