Barcelona continued their unstoppable march toward the LaLiga crown with a narrow but crucial 1-0 victory over RCD Mallorca at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. The win extends their unbeaten league run to 14 matches (W12, D2) and keeps them firmly in control at the top of the table. With the title race heating up, especially from a Tanzanian punter’s perspective, Barcelona looks like a team that won’t let up anytime soon — perfect for strategic bets on Bangbet.com.
Tense First Half Despite Barca’s Dominance
The Catalans came into the game riding high after a thrilling 4-3 comeback win over Celta Vigo. Hansi Flick rotated his squad for this clash, resting big names like Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha. Still, the Blaugrana maintained their attacking dominance with Ferran Torres, Ansu Fati, Dani Olmo, and wonderkid Lamine Yamal all coming close in the opening half.
Despite wave after wave of pressure, Mallorca held firm. Goalkeeper Leo Román stood tall, denying Barcelona multiple times while José Copete’s last-ditch deflection of a Gavi effort onto the post saved the visitors again. Even when Mateo Jaume had the ball in the back of the net for Mallorca, a narrow offside call kept things level going into the break.
Dani Olmo Breaks the Deadlock
Barcelona wasted no time after the interval. Within the first minute of the second half, Dani Olmo coolly slotted home his ninth league goal of the season in just 11 starts — a finish that showcased his growing influence under Flick. His timing, movement, and composure were simply too much for Mallorca’s defense.
Barcelona pushed for a second with Ansu Fati and Yamal both going close again, but Leo Román refused to roll over. Mallorca tried to mount a late response with Antonio Raíllo’s header flashing just wide — a warning shot that reminded the hosts to stay focused.
Mallorca’s European Hopes Take a Dent
Mallorca, currently occupying the seventh spot in the UEFA Conference League qualification, will be disappointed with their lack of attacking threat. They now head to Girona hoping to bounce back, but their European dreams are in danger, with the potential to drop as low as 11th if other results don’t go their way.
Barcelona Set Sights on Copa Del Rey Final
With another vital three points secured, Barcelona now shifts focus to Saturday’s high-stakes Copa Del Rey final against Real Madrid. Confidence is high in the Catalan camp, and Flick’s ability to rotate the squad without compromising results bodes well for the trophy chase.
