"Barcelona" strategist Tito Vilanova claims that the fight for the Spanish champion title is not over yet.

During the weekend, the Catalans crushed "Levante" 4-0 and increased the gap from their fiercest rival Madrid's "Real", who lost 0-1 to "Real Betis", to 11 points.

"We scored quick goals in the second half and that determined our victory," said the specialist who replaced Pep Guardiola. "In the first half, everything unfolded as we expected, because the opponents work as a fist and know how to launch quick attacks.

"But the championship is not over yet. We have only played a third of the games, and Madrid's "Atletico" is trailing by just three points and is a very strong team. There are still 75 points left to fight for, which is a lot."

And he added: "Atletico" started the season excellently, but I do not want to think about the opponents - the most important thing is our own game."
