Strategist Pep Guardiola doesn't rush to dismiss Madrid's team in the fight for the Spanish champions title.
The leading Catalonians took advantage of the slip-ups of the capital's team and currently have a solid 7 point advantage.
"We will focus on every match - we have to win them," Guardiola said. "If we lose, the fight will ignite again. There is a long road ahead where we cannot fall into pitfalls. If we lose, we will blame only ourselves."
The Spanish press, after Real's defeat to Osasuna, already congratulated Barcelona for successfully defending the country's champions title.
