Ter Stegen does not throw in the towel: “The League is not over yet”

The goalkeeper Marc André Ter Stegen is one of those players who act as captain even if he is not the official holder of the bracelet. The goalkeeper took advantage of the draw of Simeone's men (1-1) at Benito Villamarín to send a hopeful message to fans through social media: “It was a difficult night (Saturday), but LaLiga is not over yet, despite the defeat. There are many games left and we will fight to the end. Now we have to focus on the Copa del Rey, an important moment for us and for all the fans. Força Barça ”.

Thus, Ter Stegen not only sends a message of optimism to the Catalans regarding LaLiga, ensuring that there is still room to win it, but also calls on the fans to start watching their weapons for the Cup final against Athletic This Saturday where nothing more and nothing less is at stake than the first title of the season. Remember that the ‘lions’ already snatched the option of getting a cup this season from the blaugrana in the final of the Spanish Super Cup (2-3), so they are all warned in the face of this momentous match.

In fact, Cuatro's microphones captured a conversation between Gerard Piqué and Jordi Alba at the exit of Valdebebas after the Classic dispute regarding the Cup final, where the center-back took it for granted that they would get the trophy, while the full-back did not. he had all of them with him. “You calm down … (Jordi), we will win this Cup for sure, let's go …”, assured Piqué, to which Alba replied, “I don't know, huh …”.

Regarding LaLiga it seems clear that Atlético's draw de-dramatizes the defeat against Real Madrid a bit, since at the end of the day only two points separate him from the leader, with 24 still to be disputed and with the ‘plus’ that those of Simeone have to come to the Camp Nou in five days. In any case, with the outcome tonight, Atlético is once again the only team that depends on itself to win the title, since neither Barcelona nor Real Madrid winning all their matches would ensure LaLiga.
