What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Noa Liga.
Noa Liga.
It's done, isn't it?
Another record for Luminia Mal as well. The youngest player to reach 100 La Liga games for Barcelona in La Liga history.
Arbeloa had a rant, didn't he?
Yeah, I liked what he said. What did he say? For me, it's a clear penalty here and even on the moon.
If there's a team that you want to watch in Europe at the moment, it's probably Barcelona, I'd say.
I think that they will turn things around in the Champions League as well.
Hello and welcome to the Rest is Football La Liga episode with Alex Algeo and me, Gary Lineker, on probably a defining moment in La Liga this weekend where Barcelona won and Real Madrid dropped points yet again. But before we get to the football, Alex, wow, you're at home.
Hi.
You're not in a hotel room.
No, you can tell by the dartboards. That's when you know I'm at home. No, I'm at home for the next half an hour. And then I'm off to Liverpool for second leg Liverpool, Paris Saint-Germain. Not looking hopeful, is it, for Liverpool?
Yeah, I think it's a big ask against a very, very good PSG team. But, well, I think it's very, very clear that they're not a leaguer.
No, I Liga.
It's done, isn't it? It's done, surely.
Barring what, Barcelona slipping up in a couple of games and then Real Madrid winning the Clásico, there could be Liga after that, but... But it's not looking hopeful, is it? I think it sort of depends what happens in the Champions League as well. If they were to get knocked out of the Champions League by Atletico Madrid, which obviously could happen with... Well, 2-0 lead. Yeah, got a 2-0 lead. Obviously, then I think... they're 100% winning La Liga. We've always said the Champions League was Barcelona's priority this season. So there could be a glimmer of hope if Barcelona went through and put all the eggs in the Champions League basket.
What happened in the recent Real Madrid vs Girona match?
But yeah, we want to say there's Liga, but no La Liga.
No, I Champions League. So, I mean, as you said, I just wondered what the fallout was about that decision, the red card, Kobasi red card, because I thought it was one of the most appalling VAR turnovers I've seen because the ref didn't give it on field.
Was there even any contact? I was watching it.
It looked like he tripped himself over. I'm not sure there was contact. But even if there was a minimum of contact.
Because he was the last defender.
He was the last defender. But the law says you've got to deny a clear goal scoring opportunity, right? So the ball is actually behind him. And you can see quite clearly that it's behind his backside. So how that... Even then, when he trips himself over, how that can possibly be a red card, I don't know. And that's obviously completely changed the game.
Yeah, and Julio Alvarez scored, didn't he?
From that very free kick, Barcelona down to 10 men and all of a sudden it's a different game. They were so dominant as well before that. You just thought it's only a matter of time before Barcelona run away with this. But then I think they almost doubled down. They criticised the referee, who's now not going to play, but did say one of the reasons was that he didn't give the red immediately. And you thought, what? Is that true? I don't know. Just one of those social media posts. It might be wrong, that. But I just thought it was extraordinary. So Barcelona have got it all to do.
But they could, they could, they could.
As have Real Madrid.
Yes. And I did say last week that I thought that Real Madrid would knock Bayern Munich out. And I think I'm going to stand by that.
I am not.
And I know that's a really big statement.
Well, it's possible. It was a very good game, the Real Madrid-Bayern Munich one. Bayern Munich were excellent. But both teams had their chances and will probably do so again in the Allianz Arena. But that is a tighter one to call. But I fancy Bayern Munich quite strongly. Yeah, and they're at home as well. Well, exactly, with a 2-1 lead. And that takes us nicely on to Real Madrid. Dropping points left, right and centre.
It's strange because we said it last week as well with that performance.
