BARCA FIGHT TO THE END

Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta has said that the Catalan club will fight until the end when it comes to the league title this season. Barcelona managed to claw the 10 point advantage that Real Madrid had only a few weeks ago to just one point after their latest victory.

Following the win, Andres Iniesta said that he is extremely delighted to have closed the gap and said that he never doubted Barcelona’s ability to keep in touch with the leaders. After Real Madrid managed to extend their lead at the top of the table to 10 points, it seemed almost impossible for Barcelona to win the title for the fourth consecutive season.

However, they have managed to put together a run of nine victories in the last nine matches, which coupled with the drop in form for Real Madrid has reduced the deficit at the top of the table. Even though Iniesta still maintained that Real Madrid were the leaders at the top of the table, Barcelona were clearly the side with the momentum in the league right now.

“Madrid are still the leaders. They have the advantage and a game in hand. Things have changed, but we will keep fighting to add three points with every game. That is what we want until the end. Madrid can win matches like the one on Wednesday. But these derbies are always very intense,” Iniesta told the Betfair online football betting website after the win over Getafe at the Camp Nou.

Real Madrid will be facing a tough match in the form of Atletico Madrid, as they look towards re-establishing their four-point lead at the top of the table. Madrid are still to face Barcelona at the Camp Nou, and it is expected to be one of the major turning points of the season.

Iniesta will then turn his attention to the European Championships, where the latest Euro 2012 Betting odds make them firm favourites.
