Chapter 370: 1:0 and 8:0
Because they want to qualify for the Champions League, Athletic Bilbao can be said to have done their best on their home turf.
Their tenacious style of play, tough play, combined with the home advantage bonus, really made Atletico Madrid play hard.
On the other side, when the second half between Barcelona and Deportivo La Coruna began, just two minutes later, Rakitic scored another goal for Barcelona to make it 3-0.
In the 53rd minute, Suarez scored his hat-trick as Barcelona gave Deportivo a 4-0 lead at Deportivo La Coruna.
Barcelona fans are cheering for Suarez while also looking at the other side.
There has been no news from the San Mamés stadium yet.
The score remained 0:0.
"Atletico Madrid is in a bitter ......" said a Barcelona fan on the Internet, and everyone spread the good news.
If Atletico Madrid loses to Athletic Bilbao and Barcelona win Deportivo La Coruna, the five-point gap between the two sides will be reduced to two points again.
Hope of winning the championship is rekindled!
If Atletico Madrid can make a mistake once, why can't it be done again?
※※※
In the 64th minute, Suarez scored another goal to complete the big four, helping Barcelona lead Deportivo La Coruna 5-0. The suspense of this game has been completely lost.
Barcelona fans who didn't travel with the team even switched to watching Barcelona and watched the live broadcast of the Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao matches.
When they changed the stage, the live score happened to be played in the live broadcast screen - it was still 0:0!
Ha!
Many Barcelona fans couldn't help but laugh when they saw this scene.
Luck seems to be back.
God still can't bear to forsake His devout followers......

Chinese fans thousands of miles away are also watching these two matches, but their focus is on Suarez and Gao Zheng.
After reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League and the hope of winning the league has greatly increased, many Chinese fans hope that Gao Zheng can make a breakthrough in personal honors.
He was the top scorer in Serie A for two consecutive seasons. But after coming to La Liga, he scored 40 goals in a single season, but he couldn't get the Golden Boot, which is really hurtful.
Fans hope that Gao Zheng can win the La Liga Golden Boot.
This season is promising.
As of the 33rd round of the league, Gao Zheng has scored 31 goals, tied for first place with Cristiano Ronaldo, while Suarez ranks third with 26 goals.
But in this round of the league, Suarez was a senior player, and the number of league goals suddenly changed from 26 to 30, chasing only one goal.
This threatens the Golden Boot of the league for Gao Zhengna.
Chinese fans hope that Gao Zheng can have a bumper harvest this season, and there is no shortage of collective and individual honors.
Just when Chinese fans were worried about Gao Zheng's delay in scoring goals.
Atletico Madrid, shown on television, once again launched an offensive against Athletic Bilbao's penalty area.
They pushed forward quickly, and when they got to the front, Griezmann picked up the ball, forced a break, and then crossed the bottom.
Many people felt that Griezmann's cross seemed to be a bit too hasty, because at this time Athletic Bilbao did not have a teammate in front of the goal.
Gao Zheng is also still on the line of the big forbidden area.
But at the moment when Griezmann's cross came, Gao Zheng, who was originally running to the front point, suddenly accelerated and changed direction and rushed to the back point.
And the football also flew high over the Athletic Bilbao penalty area and then chased to the back post!
After Gao Zheng slapped his horse there, he jumped up with the power of the sprint.
In the case of almost no one to defend, in the face of the incoming ball, Gao Zheng shook his head with a lion!
Although many people have the inherent impression of a long time ago, they think that Gao Zheng will not be able to head the ball.
But in fact, Gao Zheng's header over the years has not been practiced in vain.
This head-shaking action in the air is very standard.
Boom!
The football was pushed towards the goal by him!
Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Gorka Ilesos pounced from the middle to the back post, but he couldn't touch the football......
"Gao Zheng! Header – Good Shot!! 1:0! Atletico Madrid leads Athletic Bilbao 1-0 away! He Ping shouted happily.
With Barcelona already leading Deportivo La Coruna 5-0, Atletico Madrid are under great pressure and they must win this game, otherwise the league title may make waves again and become uncertain.
Now Gao Zheng's goal has given everyone a reassurance.
※※※
The smiles of the Barcelona fans who had just seen the 0-0 score froze before they could dissipate from their faces.
They had just switched the tables and wanted to see how Atletico Madrid got into a tough battle......
I didn't expect to see Gao Zheng scoring a goal to celebrate?!
What the hell is this!
Don't look at Barcelona's lively play, scoring goals one after another, and at this moment the effort is six goals ahead. But it only takes one goal from Atletico Madrid's side to undo all their efforts......
As long as Atletico Madrid can win this game, even if they only win by one goal, it will be three points, and Barcelona will still be five points behind Atletico Madrid if they win ten or eight goals.
It can be said that Gao Zheng's goal can make all five of Barcelona's goals meaningful.
Now Barcelona fans can only hope that Atletico Madrid can't hold on to this one-goal lead, and Athletic Bilbao can pull Barcelona after the breakthrough.
Of course, isn't Athletic Bilbao themselves fighting for fourth place in the league?
If you lose, it's no fun!
You fight for some gas!
Not for us in Barcelona, but for yourselves!
But Barcelona fans seem to have forgotten that Athletic Bilbao has a tough style, and Atletico Madrid also has a tough style, and they are not afraid of their opponents and them.
The tough style of play is restrained by those teams that are technically flowing.
But Atletico Madrid is not going the technical route......
※※※
On the other side, Barcelona scored three more goals, with one each from Lionel Messi, Bartra and Neymar to help Barcelona beat Deportivo La Coruna 8-0.
However, the score on the side of Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao remained unchanged.
It seems that Barcelona's 8-0 is like a vent of anger - all the anger of their failure to close the gap with Atletico Madrid is vented on Deportivo La Coruna.
A Coruña was really lying down and was shot......
Although they have basically no desire, let people play 0:8 at their home stadium, where will this face go?
As soon as the game on Barcelona's side ended, the players paid attention to the dynamics of the San Mamés stadium.
It's already in the second half, but Athletic Bilbao still has no way of beating Atletico Madrid.
In the second half, they made substitutions and strengthened their attack.
There were nine shots on goal in the game, three more than Atletico Madrid's six, and six shots in the woodwork, also three more than Atletico Madrid.
Athletic Bilbao also had eight corners, double that of Atletico Madrid.
But just don't score.
Oblak made six effective saves to keep out all of Athletic Bilbao's attacks.
Until the end of the game, Athletic Bilbao could not break through the goal of Atletico Madrid.
The final score was 1:0.
Atletico Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao away with a rare header from Gao Zheng.
The scores of these two games are put together, which is really hard for Barcelona fans to say.
Eight goals on his side looked like a wild win to celebrate, sweeping away his opponent.
Atletico Madrid seems to have been bombarded by Athletic Bilbao, and in the end it was just a chicken thief who won by a lucky goal.
But whatever the impression, the result is solid – Atletico Madrid are still five points ahead of Barcelona and top the league table.
And there are only four rounds left in the league.
