Barcelona back in LaLiga title race – Pique warns rivals

Pique

Barcelona defender, Gerard Pique, has said the LaLiga title race is not over, following their 2-0 win at Sevilla on Saturday.

Ousmane Dembele and Lionel Messi scored as Barca moved up to second position.

The Catalans currently are two points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, who have two games in hand.

Real Madrid, who face Atletico next weekend, are third, one point behind Barca ahead of Monday’s fixture against Real Sociedad.

It’s been quite a turnaround for Barca, who were 12 points off the pace and sat seventh in the table after losing to Cadiz in December.

“The league is on, of course it is,” Pique told reporters.

“Teams have come back from worse situations in the past and the team, despite those two games recently [against Paris Saint-Germain and Cadiz] have done well in 2021. We can be confident.

“Sevilla, at their ground, haven’t had a shot on goal against us or even created a clear chance. It’s not the ideal situation, sure, but I have faith in the team.”
