Just when the fight for the Spanish crown looked a bit stagnant, a major swing in the La Liga title race occurred in Gameweek 24 that saw Real Madrid go two points clear of arch rivals Barcelona.
The 15-time European champions kicked off this weekend’s La Liga slate with a statement 4–1 victory over Real Sociedad, all without the help of the injured Kylian Mbappé. The win, spearheaded by a brace from Vinicius Junior, put Los Blancos atop the table.
