Vinicius spoils the "corridor of honor". Barcelona braces for the "biggest trap"

Brazilian Vinicius Junior led his Real Madrid team to a valuable victory over its host, Espanyol, with a clean sheet, in the meeting that brought them together  last night, within the Spanish league competitions.

Vinicius scored Real Madrid's brace in the 55th and 66th minutes, with great technical skill, and Real Madrid raised its score to 77 points in second place, 11 points behind leaders Barcelona, while Espanyol remained at 39 points, in 13th place.

Barcelona's LaLiga title is postponed, as Real Madrid were waiting for the stumble tonight to officially clinch the title.

Vinicius shines in Mbappe's absence

Tonight's match witnessed the great brilliance of the Brazilian star Vinicius Jr., who was a flame of activity from the beginning until his exit in the 84th minute.

Vinicius posed a great danger to Espanyol's goal, and wasted several opportunities, but scored two special goals, with the high skills of the Brazilian player.

The global website "SofaScore" gave Vinicius the full score in the rating (10/10), and chose him as the man of the match, in which he got wide spaces and great freedom in attack, with the absence of Frenchman Kylian Mbappe, due to injury.

Vinicius shot twice on goal and scored from each of them, and the crossbar blocked a third shot, and another saved by goalkeeper Marko Dmitrovic.

Escape the Honor Passage Trap

Real Madrid is preparing to host Barcelona next Sunday in the El Clasico in the La Liga competition.

Barcelona was waiting for Real Madrid to fall tonight, to be officially announced as the Spanish league title, with a big difference between the two teams.

The difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid, before tonight's match, was 14 points, and if it continued or reduced to 13 points, it would have meant that Barça would have won the title.

If that were to happen, the controversy would have erupted immediately, over Real Madrid's position on making an honorary corridor for its rival in the Clásico at home and in front of its fans.

But the postponement of the coronation saved Real Madrid from this great predicament, which has occupied the press and followers over the past few days.

The biggest trap in the Clásico

Although Real Madrid survived the trap of establishing the corridor of honor in the Clásico for its rivals among its fans, an even bigger trap awaits the Merengue in the Clásico.

The two teams will enter the Clásico with a difference of 11 points, and the title will be decided in this expected position.

Real Madrid, in the Clasico, will only benefit them to win and reduce the gap to 8 points, and then the decision will be postponed with 9 points available in the next rounds.

On the other hand, Barcelona will need a draw or a win, of course, to officially decide the title, with only 3 rounds left after that highly anticipated encounter.

The crown in the next clash will be a great thing for Barça and its fans, as it coincides with the victory in the Clasico, which represents a special tournament between the two rivals.

The decision will also be at the expense of the traditional rival and on the soil of Barcelona, and in front of the eyes of its fans, which will double the happiness of the title.

On the other hand, this will be a painful blow to Real Madrid and its fans, as no Merengue fan would prefer the happiness of the opponent to come at his own expense and by beating them.

With the title very close to Barça, Real Madrid will try with all their might to postpone it to another round, rather than fall into the biggest trap, and Barcelona will win the title in a head-to-head confrontation with them.
