Barca sets new winning streak record
Barcelona set a new record for successive league wins in the Spanish Primera division after seeing off Atletico Madrid 3-nil at the Nou Camp.
The win against Atletico was Barca's 16th consecutive win to surpass the record that was set by Real Madrid of 15 successive wins fifty years ago.
There was a shock result in the round as third placed Villarreal lost at home for the first time this season.
Villarreal lost 1-nil to Levante but still managed to hold on to third place and now have a point advantage over Valencia.
Valencia won the last match of the round 2-nil against Hercules.
This week I take a look at La Liga's away table and here it is:
Team | Played | Won | Draw | Lost | For | Against | GD | Pts |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Barcelona | 10 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 36 | 4 | 32 | 30 |
Real Madrid | 11 | 6 | 3 | 2 | 17 | 13 | 4 | 21 |
Valencia | 10 | 5 | 2 | 3 | 13 | 11 | 2 | 17 |
Villarreal | 10 | 4 | 2 | 4 | 15 | 15 | 0 | 14 |
Espanyol | 12 | 4 | 2 | 6 | 13 | 21 | -8 | 14 |
Sevilla | 10 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 14 | 19 | -5 | 13 |
Athletic Bilbao | 10 | 3 | 2 | 5 | 14 | 21 | -7 | 11 |
Getafe | 10 | 3 | 2 | 5 | 10 | 17 | -7 | 11 |
Málaga | 12 | 3 | 2 | 7 | 15 | 26 | -11 | 11 |
Sociedad | 12 | 3 | 1 | 8 | 17 | 26 | -9 | 10 |
Atletico | 11 | 3 | 1 | 7 | 12 | 21 | -9 | 10 |
Almeria | 11 | 2 | 2 | 7 | 8 | 15 | -7 | 8 |
Zaragoza | 10 | 1 | 5 | 4 | 6 | 13 | -7 | 8 |
Levante | 12 | 2 | 2 | 8 | 10 | 21 | -11 | 8 |
Mallorca | 11 | 2 | 2 | 7 | 9 | 22 | -13 | 8 |
Deportivo La Coruña | 12 | 2 | 2 | 8 | 6 | 22 | -16 | 8 |
Sporting Gijon | 11 | 1 | 4 | 6 | 9 | 18 | -9 | 7 |
R Santander | 12 | 1 | 3 | 8 | 7 | 24 | -17 | 6 |
Hercules | 12 | 1 | 3 | 8 | 3 | 21 | -18 | 6 |
Osasuna | 11 | 0 | 2 | 9 | 8 | 23 | -15 | 2 |
So Osasuna are the only team without an away win so far.
Barcelona hasn't dropped a single point away from Nou Camp.
