The matches between Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid are the great duels of the Iberdrola League. And the clash between the two teams that was played yesterday at the Johan Cruyff Stadium was about not to be broadcast. In the end, despite the fact that a judge responded to Mediapro's request, which owns the rights of the mattress set, and ordered that the Barca entity not issue the game through any means, the club decided to offer it through the internet and in Barça TV This was announced two hours before the ball began to roll on the grass, asserting the so-called Sand Law and understanding that there was no material time to conveniently appeal the judicial decision.

And although the game was finally broadcast, it can be said that it was never seen. Barça beat Atlético 6-1 with forcefulness , despite the fact that the rojiblanco team came forward very soon on the scoreboard, and gave a new blow on the table, no matter how much Rayo Vallecano failed to pass the tie and He placed as provisional leader waiting to see what Deportivo does in his match against Granadilla Tenerife. The Barca club also prevented the entry of Mediapro cameras, which he regretted through a statement that violates his right to information. Something that, in part, reminded us of that football war, in this case, incrusted with the emergence of the Vía Digital and Canal Satélite Digital platforms, when, as in this case, the operators did not have all the rights to The disputing teams.

Away, perhaps only to the extent possible, to all the media messes surrounding the game, the Barça and Atlético players tried to focus on a duel of maximum rivalry that, despite everything, did not fill the stands . As much as the sign of no tickets was hung, more than 1,500 seats were finally released . The rain that had insistently whipped both the city of Barcelona and its surroundings might have a lot to do with it. The downpours of the morning, against all odds, sure, would finally give way to a downpour of goals for a rojiblanco team that arrived undefeated and unbeaten at his appointment with the Barça team.

It was of little use to visitors to get ahead very early on the scoreboard through Amanda Sampedro . Barça did not take long to put the equalizer on the scoreboard, thanks to a penalty forced by Oshoala and transformed by Jenni Hermoso that would have another devastating effect: the first yellow for an Aïssatou Tounkara that would be expelled after seeing the second in the absence of Half an hour to the end. The Nigerian, author of the fourth and fifth goal Barça , would be together with Van der Gragt and Graham among the highlights of the meeting. The 2-1 , meanwhile, was scored by Mariona Caldentey , after his partner, precisely, crashed the ball on the crossbar. Luck, in addition, turned its back on an Atlético who would see how Kenti Robles and Meseguer knocked on their own door .
