After a 2-2 draw with Celta Vigo, Barcelona continued to lose 2 points to Atletico Madrid when they drew 2-2.
1 lucky point is not enough to comfort Messi and his teammates as they have been surpassed by Real Madrid with 1 more point and played 1 more match.
Real Madrid's task is much easier than Barcelona's when hosting Getafe at home at the Bernabeu.
If Barca can only rely on Lionel Messi or Luis Suarez, Real Madrid is truly a winning machine.
In 2 wins against Valencia and Real Sociedad, striker Karim Benzema scored 3 goals. The excellence of the French veteran made coach Zinedine Zidane not hesitate to praise and said that "Ben map" is the smartest striker in the world at the moment.
In addition, Real Madrid's excellence in scoring also comes from the young players in the squad such as Vinicius Jr.
The Brazilian striker was given responsibility on the left wing at a time when Eden Hazard was not in good shape. Taking the board, stirring up and creating highlights, Vinicius is taking the trust.
In addition to Benzema, other veterans such as Toni Kroos, Casemiro and Sergio Ramos continuously fired shots.
If his teammates are stuck, just need a high ball or free kick, Ramos will shine. No one has played as a defender and scored as Ramos in La Liga (68) and this living legend wanted him to have 100 goals before retiring.
Real Madrid have no reason to think about an unfavorable result or even a difficult match against the away team Getafe.
In the first leg of round 19, despite playing at home, Getafe still suffered a 0-3 defeat. The visitors' current 6th place has boosted their confidence in a ticket to the European Cup, but this dream has been broken tonight as their opponents want to leave Barcelona behind anytime soon.
Los Blancos understand that they must qualify for the La Liga championship this season to avoid failure.
In the UEFA Champions League, they lost 1-2 to Manchester City at home in the first leg of the round of 16. The return match in Manchester cannot be predicted as easily as the match against Getafe tonight. Therefore, Zidane will work with his students to win 3 points at all costs.
Over the past decade, Real Madrid have only won La Liga twice, despite having won the UEFA Champions League 4 times. The ambition to be the king in the domestic arena of the "White Vultures" is greater than ever.
The match between Real Madrid and Getafe in round 33 of La Liga takes place at 3:00 a.m. on July 3 (Vietnam time), live on SCTV.
