The goal since the middle of the season is to stay in the top four and get a passport to the Champions League, but the first goal is to repeat the European qualification and Real is on the right track. Their defeat against Valencia, added to Atlético’s draw and Betis’ controversial victory at Elche, narrowed the lead in the Champions League zone to one point with fourth and three in fifth. However, the distance to the seventh, which is now Osasuna, has been reduced by only one point: from 11 to 10.
And that happened because both Rayo Vallecano and Athletic lost their games against Cádiz (1-0) and Girona at home (2-3) respectively and Osasuna, after winning at Sánchez Pizjuán (2-3), was happened in the table with the people of Bilbao, rivals in the Cup. The Navarrese team has 33 points, 10 less than Real and Athletic, it stops at 32, 11 less.
If Villarreal beat Getafe at home this Monday, they will reach 34 points, which is why Real’s distance to seventh is nine points.
