Real Madrid Equaliser a “Jug of Cold Water” For Barcelona’s Luis Enrique

Meanwhile Villarreal’s poor run of form continued as a tiresome 0-0 draw away to Leganes prevented them from closing the gap on the top three and Fran Escriba’s men have won just one of their last five league games.

Sergio Ramos headed home a last-gasp equaliser to preserve Real Madrid’s six-point advantage in La Liga.

“The only chance we have is to keep winning games and put pressure on them”.

Suarez eventually gave Barcelona a deserved 1-0 lead on 53 minutes, heading in Neymar’s whipped freekick.

But suffocating defence soon became the major theme, with Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Neymar, Luis Suarez and other attackers not given the room needed to operate effectively.

He was however, unhappy with his team’s defending which allowed Ramos to score from a Luka Modric free-kick after a needless foul.

Madrid fans obviously wouldn’t care the Blaugrana’s plight, though, and took to Twitter to praise Ramos for his habit of scoring crucial late goals for the European champions.

The post Real Madrid Force Barcelona To El Clasico Draw appeared first on Complete Sports Nigeria. He never gives in.

He said on his club’s website: “The points difference is reward for the hard work we’ve been doing since the start of the season”.

“Football often brings up this kind of situation, it is not justice or injustice, they equalised in the 90th minute and continue six points ahead”.

“It was a good ball in from Luka for a change”, said Ramos jokingly.

But Iniesta, who came on in the second half for his first appearance since sustaining a knee ligament injury in October, felt it was unfair to pin blame for the result on his Turkish team-mate.

“Going 33 games unbeaten is no coincidence. We can’t get carried away and we know there’s a long way to go in the season but it’s much better that it’s in our hands”, added Ramos.

But one goal is seldom sufficient against Real Madrid – and especially this version. I say this even when we win, and even when we draw.

“They have the resources and variety in their play to keep picking up points”. We can improve in all aspects of the game: offensive, defensive. That is the good thing about this team and today we saw the importance of each player.
