LaLiga Overtime 24/25 – Match Day #13:
Real Madrid’s resurrection:
Real Madrid were solid, solid and deep for the first time in the league on matchday 13. Ancelotti‘s side played a great game, generating plenty of chances and running roughshod over an Osasuna side that had no chance.

Jude Bellingham scored his first league goal, Camavinga improved the team’s midfield in the pivot and Vinícius scored a hat-trick, proving he is still one of the best in the world.
On the negative side, injuries have forced the team to make signings in the winter transfer window, mainly that of Militão, who will be out until next season. Also noteworthy is the poor performance of Mbappé, who has still not found his best form and is very anxious.

Atlético de Madrid are still in the mix:
It looked as if the ‘colchoneros’ were going to slip away from the lead relatively easily in the first few games due to their poor performance. However, Simeone‘s side won their game, albeit without much fanfare. The truth is that Atlético de Madrid won on a very difficult pitch with a goal from their star signing: Julián Álvarez.

As for Mallorca, Arrasate‘s side missed a good opportunity to establish themselves in the top half of the table, but the sensations have been positive and they have shown that they can give anyone a fight.

Real Sociedad knock out FC Barcelona:
It is the first time this season that we have seen Flick’s side totally knocked out. They were the better side throughout the game and the result even fell a little short, as the Basques’ goalscoring problems were noticeable throughout the match.
The absence of Lamine Yamal was very noticeable for the ‘blaugranas’, as Fermín was very uncomfortable on the wing and Real Sociedad’s approach meant that the Catalans were unable to generate much danger. Imanol’s approach was fantastic and showed that his team has the level to play in Europe. However, they need to improve in front of goal.
