Barcelona defeated Atlético Madrid 1-0 in the 30th matchday of La Liga. The Catalans now have an eleven-point lead with eight days to go.

In the first minute, Antoine Griezmann rattled Marc-Andre ter Stegen's crossbar. The Frenchman, true conductor of the Rojiblancos since the World Cup, even had a second opportunity to score. The end of the match, marred by fouls (12 yellow cards were distributed by the referee during the match), did not benefit either team.
