JUDE BELLINGHAM HAS WON THE TITLE FOR REAL MADRID! Diaz oozes forward through the middle and finds Lucas Vazquez down the right, Joselu steps over his low cross looking to flick it, and wouldn’t you just know it, that boy, that grownarse man, slams an expert’s finish into the roof from an acute angle! Madrid are going 11 points clear with six games to go!

Valverde creates spoace in midfield, beating his man and finding Vinicius down the left, who crosses beautifully, bending the ball around Kounde, and at the back post, Vazquez controls a fine finish, one bounce and punched inside the near post. The title is back in Madrid’s grasp!

Madrid haven’t really got going this half and Torres spreads to Yamal who cunningly curls into the box – one of those that the keeper can’t move for till he’s sure no one else is getting a touch.

They couldn’t could they? Barcelona begin today eight points off the top and by any measure are less good than Madrid, their European fortunes illustrating the gap: Barca lost a tie they might’ve won, Madrid won a much harder one they should’ve lost.

However! After ploughing through 90 minutes and extra time chasing the ball, it might just be that the euphoria and dump – physical and mental – extract a toll. And if they do, Barca absolutely have the players not only to win tonight but to make the title race a race again.

Because make no mistake, this Madrid side are not there yet, their presence at the top of the league and in the Champions League last four a reflection not of their coherence but of the incredible individuals who have defined their club since the fifties. Thing is, Barca are over-furnished in the same department, their attackers good enough to devastate any opponent and their defending improving.

Key occasions
Match report
Righto, that then is us; Sid Lowe’s report can be with us shortly, and as quickly as it’s, it’ll be in right here and up on website. In any other case, thanks all in your firm and feedback, however I’m afraid we’re at that time once more: we’re straight out of soccer for an additional weekend. Different hand, although, what a weekend it’s been – and if it’s extra sport you’re after, fear not for we bought you. Peace out folks.
Elsewhere, Girona now lead Atléti, overwhelmed by Alavés by seven factors, and they’re going into the Champions League. What an excellent victory for the little man.
The Bernabeu is totally bouncing, the title successfully confirmed in opposition to the hated enemy. The duty for Ancelotti now could be to get everybody to the Bayern semi rested however match-fit; a lot simpler stated than accomplished.
“Jude Bellingham is just out of this world,” reckons Colum Fordham. “Brahim Diaz did many of the exhausting work however Bellingham is at all times in the fitting place on the proper time. With both foot. When was the final time two of the highest 5 gamers on the earth have been English? Foden and Bellingham are certainly there or thereabouts.”
Hmmm, I suppose it relies upon; will we rely keepers and defenders, who’re often absent from such lists? Each have to do extra over extra seasons, and within the largest matches to ensconce among the many elite of the elite, however I’m sure that’ll occur.
I forgot to say, when Bellingham scored, he and his mates dived into the group, then he posed in entrance of them, reminding anybody who cares to know that he’s that man. I’d nonetheless wish to see extra from him throughout the 90, however his means to change the end result of matches, in so many alternative methods, is sensational.
Full time: Actual Madrid 3-2 Barcelona
Phew! Madrid win, lead by 11 factors with six video games left, and the title is theirs.
90+5 min Jude Bellingham, although. Ages in the past, I watched an interview asking him if he was excited to play with all the nice gamers at Dortmund. “Sure, however I’m fairly good myself,” he replied, and that’s the factor with him: a lot justifiable confidence, such that when he bought an opportunity to win the clasico and with it the title, there was just one possible final result.
90+4 min Barca win a nook down the left, Ter Stegen comes up, and nothing comes of it.
90+3 min Madrid have at all times seemed to have the mandatory to do the mandatory right here – Barca are much less good and have had harm troubles – they usually’ve been the most effective facet in Spain by miles this season. Can they increase the title with their 69th European Cup?
GOAL! Actual Madrid 3-2 Barcelona (Bellingham 90+2)
JUDE BELLINGHAM HAS WON THE TITLE FOR REAL MADRID! Diaz oozes ahead by means of the center and finds Lucas Vazquez down the fitting, Joselu steps over his low cross seeking to flick it, and wouldn’t you simply realize it, that boy, that grownarse man, slams an professional’s end into the roof from an acute angle! Madrid are going 11 factors clear with six video games to go!
90 min We’ll have 4 extra minutes.
89 min Madrid are practically there. In the event that they see this out, however can’t see out a eight-point lead with six video games to go, it’ll be one of many nice collapses, any league.
87 min Modric swings in, Militao stretches and might’t divert the ball goalwards, however it squirts sq., Bellingham can’t fairly attain it, and it runs throughout Joselu, he can’t fairly curl his foot round it, slicing broad as a substitute. He’s saved by the offside flag.
86 min Diaz makes house down the left and feeds sq. to Bellingham, contained in the field. He can’t make something of it, so Madrid maintain the ball, time elapses, and and when Bellingham feeds Brahim a second time, he turns adroitly and Fermin can solely foul; free-kick Madrid, left of centre, 25 yards out.
84 min Gundogan, exterior the field, pokes a intelligent move in behind, Fermin after it, however Fran Garcia does rather well to slip in from behind, Lunin thus in a position to tidy up.
83 min Felix will get away from Modric, who kicks him up the air and accepts his reserving; or, as my gran would’ve stated, his booke-ing.
83 min Vinicius, by the best way, didn’t look amused by his substitute, however he’s seemed shattered all half.
82 min Vinicius has run his little polyester socks into the bottom, and he’s changed by Joselu, who I suppose Madrid will look to play off, whether or not in to toes or crosses into the field.
80 min Barca know they solely want one probability, and within the 10 minutes and extras that continues to be, they’d anticipate to create at the very least one; Madrid will fancy themselves to pinch it on the counter.
78 min Lunin saves from Felix, passes out of his arms like Sander Westerveld and all of a sudden Vinicius is away, Diaz alongside and defenders in pursuit. However he goes a little bit broad, a heavy contact narrowing the angle, so when he shoots powerfully, Ter Stegen is ready to block away. He shouldn’t have smelt it, however it’s a advantageous save.
77 min “Your ideas on making an attempt to attain direct photographs from corners took me again to Euro 1996,” writes Leo. “In Spain-Bulgaria Stoichkov spanked each nook similar to DeBruyne vs Madrid et all.. However yeah, for a complete week it has been fairly stylish. Doesnt appear to supply many targets although. However accomplished effectively these kicks carry pleasure each time. So all for them.”
when you load males on the keeper and the keeper isn’t nice underneath stress or excessive balls, it’s a good possibility – all of the extra so if it goes shot to enhance the angle.
76 min And right here is Tchouameni, positively in midfield, capturing low and exhausting … however straight at Ter Stegen. I feel Diaz is now up entrance alongside an exhausted-looking Vinicius.
76 min I suppose Tchouameni will transfer into midfield with Militao at centre-back – although 5 in defence would possibly make some sense to try to see out the purpose.
75 min Change for Madrid, Eder Militao for Rodrygo.
GOAL! Actual Madrid 2-2 Barcelona (Lucas Vazquez 73)
Valverde creates spoace in midfield, beating his man and discovering Vinicius down the left, who crosses superbly, bending the ball round Kounde, and on the again publish, Vazquez controls a advantageous end, one bounce and punched contained in the close to publish. The title is again in Madrid’s grasp!
72 min Bellingham slides in, Fifa 98-style, as Ter Stegen tries to clear; he does the mandatory, simply.
71 min Vinicius tries rousing the group; Ancelotti tries Fran Garcia and Brahim Diaz for Camavinga and Kroos.
GOAL! Actual Madrid 1-2 Barcelona (Fermin 69)
NOW THEN! Madrid haven’t actually bought going this half and Torres spreads to Yamal who cunningly curls into the field – a kind of that the keeper can’t transfer for until he’s positive nobody else is getting a contact. So all he can do is shove away, Torres leaping over the ball to confuse issues additional, and Fermin is there to ram house the rebound! The title race is alive!
66 min Huge Pedri heads the nook clear however Madrid recycle possession and Vinicius crosses from the by-line; the ball could or could not have hit Kounde’s hand, then seconds later somebody – Felix I feel – management beautidfully and units Torres away, Camavinga in pursuit! He holds him off rather well, seems to be to have accomplished all of the exhausting work, then digs out a end that scoots broad. He’ll be relieved to see the offside flag raised.
65 min First flash of Felix, flipping a crafty move in behind, however Tchouameni reads it effectively and clears, then Madrid roll down the opposite finish and win a nook down the fitting, Modric to swing out (sister).
64 min Double change for Barca, Joao Felix and Ferran Torres changing Lewandowski and Raphinha. I doubt the previous is impressed, however he can’t argue he’s earned the fitting to remain on – tonight or given his current ranges.
63 min Lewadowski’s header finds Yamal down the fitting however Fermin can’t do something along with his cross, then slices a shot broad when the ball comes again to him.
61 min Barca are within the ascendancy now however they’re struggling to create. Lewandowski has accomplished nearly nothing however, as I kind, a move excessive from Araujo units him away in behind. And his first contact is a goodun, killing the ball because it arrives from over his shoulder however taking him a little bit broad, and all he can do from there may be hoist a lob that doesn’t threaten the purpose.
59 min I imply. I’ve no thought how Rudiger wasn’t red-carded for this, and although that Fermin incident wasn’t as egregious, it felt like he intentionally impeded his man, however was in a position to create enough doubt such that the ref couldn’t give a penalty. Xavi, as you may think, felt in another way.
57 min Madrid are wanting a little bit leggy now and Fermin scavenges contained in the field, so Rudiger pulls out his tried-and-tested transfer, ensuring an opponent runs into him – ask Kevin de Bruyne about that one – and Madrid clear.
55 min It’s been a tepid begin to the half, however when a Barca assault breaks down, two straight passes – one into Bellingham, one to free Vinicius – and Madrid are away! He’s bought Vubarsi and Kounde goalside of him although, so has to dig out an early shot that flies excessive.
53 min Madrid transfer ahead and Bellingham, rising in affect, finds Vinicius, whose tried move between defenders to Vazquez is intercepted.
53 min Vinicius runs at Kounde, who seems to be overwhelmed then will get again to sort out. He’s growing very properly.
52 min Cancelo turns a ball across the nook so Vazquez yanks his again and is booked.
50 min Modric pinches possession on midway and units off in direction of purpose, discovering Bellingham, who works a capturing lane then leathers straight at Ter Stegen.
48 min If this stays a draw, Madrid will lead by eight with six to go; Barca should win.
46 min Instantly, Barca set Yamal at Camavinga and he will get away, however with nobody alongside him, he finally ends up checking, reducing inside and capturing straight at Lunin.
46 min We go once more…
Half-time change: Barca carry on Fermin for Christensen. They should win, so have gone for a mouser in a position to get better early balls; I’m unsure who performs in entrance of the defence, Pedri or Gundogan, however of them should.
Half-time e-mail: “Properly, I agree, I’d like Bellingham to be a box-to-box participant,” says Cliffi, “however he wants a quantity 9, Madrid don’t have a 9 and taking part in him excessive has enabled them to in all probability win the league. Subsequent 12 months they’ll get a 9 and his place will change.”
I hope so, however even when they modify to 4-3-3 received’t he nonetheless be the attacker behind the entrance man?
