On Saturday in the Spanish "La Liga" championship, all attention was focused on the "El Clasico", but aside from this match, three more matches of the 14th round took place.
"Barcelona" and "Real" were even, so their main competitor, Madrid's "Atletico", failed to take advantage. Diego Simeone's team in front of their home crowd failed to defeat the Barcelona "Espanyol" players.
In case of a victory, "Atletico" could have reduced the gap from "Real" to 7 points, but after the draw, they remain at the same 9 points behind with dim chances to triumph in the Spanish championship this season.
In other matches, "Sevilla" also unexpectedly lost points. "Granada" defeated the Andalusian team with a score of 2-1 in front of their home crowd, trailing the leaders by 7 points.
In the last match, the clash between "Leganes" and "Villarreal" ended in a goalless draw.
