Opportunity knocks for Barcelona after Madrid lose at Mallorca

Barcelona have the chance to move eight points clear at the top of La Liga tonight after Real Madrid slipped up again on Sunday.

Los Blancos were beaten 1-0 at Real Mallorca in a real shock result. Nacho’s own goal put the hosts in front and Carlo Ancelotti’s side couldn’t find an equalizer.

The defending champions did have a golden opportunity to level, but former Mallorca man Marco Asensio saw his penalty saved by goalkeer Predrag Rajkovic.

The Mallorca keeper denies Asensio from the spot.
