Expert analyzes factors behind Barcelona's victory

In a home match as part of the Spanish championship, Catalonia's Barcelona defeated Madrid's Atletico with a score of 3-1. Former CSKA Moscow footballer Oleg Kornaukhov shared his opinion about this result.

"Barcelona's individual skill made the difference. Although Lewandowski wasn’t successful in converting the penalty, the team's overall performance was at a high level.

Now we are witnessing a tight race between Real Madrid and Barcelona. However, Atletico cannot be ruled out either," the football expert said on "Match TV."

Thanks to this victory, the Catalan club has reached 37 points, securing the first position in the Spanish league standings. Under the leadership of Hans-Dieter Flick, the team has pulled four points ahead of second-placed Real Madrid, although the "royal club" has one game in hand.
