Barcelona Looking to Clinch La Liga Title
Barcelona will look to clinch the La Liga title on Sunday with a win at Mallorca. It would be the second trophy this season for Barcelona as they took out Athletic Bilbao to win the Copa del Rey on Wednesday. Barcelona could have their greatest season ever if they are able to defeat Manchester United in the Soccer Betting Champions League Final on May 27th.
The win over Athletic Bilbao gave Barcelona their 25th domestic cup. A win against Mallorca would make it 19 league titles for Barcelona. "I think we've sent out a message after two years without a trophy," midfielder Yaya Toure said. It was Toure that tied the game against Athletic and turned the tide of the game. "It wasn't the best goal of my career but in terms of significance it was one of the most important," Toure said.
Barcelona is being coached by Pep Guardiola who is trying to lead the team to three major trophies in a season and that has never been done by a Spanish club before. "Last year we just didn't have luck," Toure said. "Even though we created as many chances as we are now we just didn't get the luck."
Barcelona could win the Soccer Betting La Liga title on Saturday if Madrid loses at Villarreal. Madrid has given up on the season as they are looking to next year. "We need to work to be able to compete with this Barcelona," team president Florentino Perez said. Big names like Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka are being thrown around as possible Madrid targets. Former coach Jorge Valdano is looking at being brought back in some capacity.
