La Liga / Copa Del Rey Ole

Let's all take a moment to reflect at the fact there's actually people out there who think there are better players in the world than Lionel Messi; who is probably the greatest player ever.


His status as GOAT is unarguable. In fact, Messi GOAT denial should be a sectionable offence.

40+ goals 8 seasons in a row. Freak of nature. Greatest of all Time.

10 games to go in the Segunda Division and the gaps at both the top and the playoff pack as well as the bottom side and safety are both considerable ones.

 

Levante have been dominant throughout the season and are very much returning to La Liga at a canter, sitting top of the table on 72 points from 32 games - a mere 20 points clear of the team in third place, Tenerife.

 

Girona in second have 58 points and have a 6 point lead over Tenerife so they're looking good for promotion at long last, two years after they spectacularly fluffed it in the playoffs against Zaragoza when they won the first leg away 3-0 before losing 4-1 at home and going out.

 

The other sides in the playoffs right now are Cadiz, who are bidding for a second consecutive promotion,  Real Oviedo who are aiming for that long-awaited return to the top flight and Getafe, relegated from the top flight last season along with Levante and Rayo.

 

The playoff picture, however, is a very tight one with Huesca, Lugo and Valladolid within 5 points of the last playoff place - with Numancia and Reus 8 points back, Sevilla Atletico are in between them but as we know, Reserve sides can't be promoted to La Liga.

 

At the bottom Mirandes are seven points from safety and it's looking pretty bleak for them. Mallorca are second bottom and sit five adrift - they were fortunate to escape on the final day last season but they might not be so lucky this year. Also in the bottom four are Almeria and Alcorcon, another one of the clubs owned by that Belgian chap doing a terrible job at Charlton.

 

Alcorcon are only in the bottom four below Gimnastic Tarragona on goal difference with Rayo Vallecano not far behind, although realistically all the way up to Real Zaragoza and Elche need to look over their shoulder nervously, and they're only a point behind Numancia and Reus.

 

So in all the second tier is set up for an entertaining conclusion, with the exception of the title itself.
