Barcelona maintained their fine start to the La Liga campaign with a convincing victory over Getafe, while Atletico Madrid were forced to settle for a draw against Mallorca on Sunday.
At the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, Barcelona produced a dominant display, controlling possession and creating numerous chances to comfortably dispatch their visitors. The Catalan giants, led by Robert Lewandowski’s clinical finishing and strong midfield coordination, ensured they secured maximum points to stay firmly in the title race.
Meanwhile, at the Civitas Metropolitano, Atletico Madrid dropped crucial points after being held to a frustrating draw by a resilient Mallorca side. Despite Diego Simeone’s men piling pressure in the closing stages, they could not find the decisive breakthrough.
The result leaves Atletico trailing behind their title rivals, while Barcelona’s momentum underlines their determination to challenge Real Madrid for the league crown.
La Liga action continues midweek, with both sides looking to maintain consistency as the season gathers pace.
