]]>Wales striker Gareth Bale says Real Madrid can still win the league title despite the fact that they are 10 points behind from leaders Barcelona. They are going to face Barcelona on Saturday at Camp Nou. La Liga leaders Barca are undefeated in 39 league and cup matches and are looking for the double over El Clasico opponents Real, having defeated them 4-0 at the Bernabeu on 21 November. “In my opinion everything could be achieved in football,” said Bale, who feels more comfortable at Real Madrid than last season. “Last season I did not perform to anywhere near to my prospective,” he added.
Bale, signed from Tottenham in September 2013, scored 13 times in 31 La Liga appearances as Real Madrid finished two points behind champions Barca last season. This season, the Wales international has managed 15 league goals in 18 appearances during an injury interrupted campaign for third-placed Real Madrid with eight games to go. “It was important for me to keep working hard, to keep fighting. It is difficult playing in a foreign country,” said 26 years old Bale.
I’ve felt more settled, more involved in the team this year and I think that has shown in performances on the pitch. It’s good to have a bad season. You really do learn a lot about yourself and I feel this season I took [what happened] last season on board. I understand the game a lot more over here and I hope there is a lot still more to come in the future. On this season’s title race in Spain, Bale added: “We’re 10 points behind, but we will keep fighting until it is impossible. On Saturday, we can get to within seven points of them and you never know what might happen next.”

]]>Two second half goals from Barcelona star Lionel Messi helped the Spanish champions to beat Arsenal by 2-0 in their Champions League last-16 first leg game at Emirates Stadium. Messi efficiently condemned the Gunners to a sixth consecutive departure from the last-16 round of the Champions League. Arsene Wenger side fought courageously to provide themselves the opportunity going into the second leg at the Nou Camp in three weeks’ time – but experienced at the hands of Barcelona’s group of three Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez.
Messi scored his first goal against goalkeeper Petr Cech at the seventh effort when he rounded off an intense counter-attack including Suarez and Neymar to sweep home a finish after 71 minutes. Before Messi’s opener Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Olivier Giroud had the opportunity to score for the hosts, but they were unable to do their job. And Arsenal went into more trouble just before seven minutes from end time when their substitute Mathieu Flamini floored Messi with a badly timed challenge and he got up to send Cech the incorrect way from the spot.
The two goals on Tuesday night were Messi’s seventh and eighth against Arsenal in the Champions League. Suarez hit the post and Cech saved from Neymar as Barcelona took control – but this game already seems well out of Gunners’ approach. Barcelona knocked them out in 2010 and 2011 and that was after a draw and a victory at Emirates Stadium – so their possibilities can be all but cancelled after this defeat.
Barcelona are “95% through” to the Champions League quarter-finals, says Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger. The Frenchman held responsible his side’s ending and naivety for the home defeat. “The way we ended our possibilities is a trouble. I felt in the final third we lost something,” said Wenger. “Barcelona are 95% in the quarter-finals but we want to go there and perform. We will not go there and have completely no chance,” he included.

]]>Barcelona are on the way of setting a new unbeaten record, they are just one game away from this achievement. Barca manager Luis Enrique says “there is still a long way to go” this season after the challengers of three titles equalled a club record of undefeated in 28 matches. They beat Levante by 2-0 in Enrique’s 100th game in charge at Barcelona on Sunday, which was also their 10th straight victory. They also have a club record of winning 18 games in a row, which they set in 2005-06 season.
If Barca beat Valencia on Wednesday or even play a draw, then they will break their own record of 28 unbeaten games which they set in 2010-11 season. “More than statistics, I am concerned with the combined goals that we have and we can only achieve them at the end of the season,” said Enrique. “We are on great positions in all tournaments but there is a long way to go,” he added. Barcelona have also won the treble in Enrique’s first season in charge, and now they are three points clear at the top of La Liga with one game in hand.
They are tied up with Arsenal in the Champions League last 16, and Valencia in the Copa del Rey semi-final. They beat Valencia by 7-0 in the first leg and will play the second leg on Wednesday. Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba said we are getting right things. It is a huge accomplishment to go 28 games undefeated. We are leading the La Liga table. “At the Mestalla, we’ll go out to win the game as we always have done. The consequence of first leg was very beneficial, but we still have to look a victory in the second leg, so it is an essential game.”
Barca will visit Emirates Stadium on 23rd February for the first-leg of Champions League last 16 and will host Arsenal in the second-leg on 16th March. Get 100% genuine Football Tickets from safe and secure system of Ticket4Football.com with very affordable prices.
