Oviedo go 1-0 up against Barcelona.
Huge error from Joan García allowed Reina the chance to aim for an empty net. Still a tough chance to take in a split second but he pulled it off perfectly.
The Carlos Tartiere explodes. Whatever happens in the game, that’s an unforgettable moment for the fans.
Rayo Vallecano 1-1 Celta Vigo
I think the away side bossed that tactically; despite Isi moving into the central position, Rayo never found a solution to the press and struggled to create throughout.
Celta’s overload at the back gave them a constant advantage; Borja Iglesias was also superb.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
Spoke to El Macca the other day for AS. An absolute delight.

Terrific resignation letter by Anneliese Dodds, this.
🇪🇸 In Torrevieja, Alicante, more than 40% of property owners are foreigners.
In the nearby Algorfa and Rojales that number hits 70%!
I did a deep dive into foreigner property ownership in Spain⬇️

Nice to see Valencia 'think' of their supporters with these ridiculously high prices for season ticket holders and general public ahead of the #CopadelRey 1/4 final vs Barça.
Absolutely disastrous start for Atlético Madrid against Bayer Leverkusen.
Already conceded a goal (disallowed for offside), looking second best all over the pitch and now Pablo Barrios has been given a straight red. 24 mins gone.
1-0 Atleti win incoming.
Archie Gray: what a player.

Safe to say nobody expected the Reyes Magos to turn up like this

Found out today that the Amazon delivery person left my letterbox-sized parcel inside the fucking green bin and didn’t send a photo or a message of where it was.
They delivered it over a week ago. Twats.
(Yes, you can laugh)
1. Barça - 38pts
2. Atleti - 38pts
3. Real Madrid - 37pts
And both Madrid sides have a game in hand.
There is league.

This Fox segment on the search for the shooter is incredible. Look at how the NYPD searches Central Park lol
It’s “oh, maybe I complained a lot about some Spanish comms” interesting
It’s not often I listen to English comms for Leeds games… it certainly is interesting.

'Mbappé at Real Madrid is becoming a horror film... a weak penalty without conviction, he was daunted by the atmosphere and his lack of confidence'
Strong words from AS this evening after the Frenchman missed from the spot (again) and failed to inspire the team as they lost 2-1 to Athletic Club.
This is the best piece I've read on the cowardly homophobes unwilling to publicly explain their bigotry.
Not a player, I know, but what else am I going to think of?
Leeds United 😭
