    It ain't over till ... well, it's practically over. Suck to not be able to make this a real 3 horse race. It would take monumental screw ups by both Madrid for us to clinch the title. Not gonna happen. Irregardles, we should still go out there and put forth our best effort. Could also be Messi's last couple of games for the club depending on what happens in the summer.

    FdJ is out through suspension and Mingueza joins the B team to help with the promotion battle.

    Hopefully the two Madrids will both either lose or drop points tomorrow

    Probably another draw. This season is finished. Just rest player like Messi so he can have strength for Copa America.

    I guess if it looks like Aguero is coming then that's a sign that Messi is staying.

    Ideally, but since everyone is playing at the same time I will be rooting hard for Atleti unless LPB are at least 2 goals down to Athletic Club.

    There’s “rumours” we may offload a lot of deadwood and even sell Messi in an attempt to get Haaland !!

    Just notice the max point Barca can get this season is 82, equal to last season.
    So it is pretty poor league season.

    Also the max point Liga winner can get this season is 86 points (AM if they win both their remanining games) which is lowest since 2008.

    Definitely the best season for a neutral to follow since 2006-7.

    But this really is Decision Domingo for 3 Barca teams (all 3 could be eliminated):
    Barca B eliminated from promotion playoff already
    Barca need a better result than Atleti to stay mathematically alive
    Barca Femini play in the CL final against Chelsea at 3:00p ET.

    3-5-2 with Dembele as WB again. Moriba starts. Otherwise, no surprises.

    Messi could have had a 2nd there. Rare bad touch on the Pedri pass.

    Sucks to not have the tie breaker against LPB or Atletico. :mad: Have to beat them on points.

    Caught MAtS leaning the wrong way. Not even a great shot. But too much space.

    How bad is our defense. My God. I have never seen such horrific defending from a "top" team ever.

    Messi seems to shy away more from his right foot in the last couple of seasons. He could have charged the box and take a shot there instead he tried a cut back backwards to try and get it on his left foot.

    Top 3 all tied at halftime.

    Atletico came flying out of the gate but somehow didn't score.

    I think it's a bit premature to call that.

    Pique should have closed Mina down.
