Barcelona Increase Spanish League Lead
by Beating Mallorca 1-0
Barcelona, 23 Apr (ONA) — Dani
Olmo scored early in the second half as Barcelona defeated Mallorca 1-0 to
increase its Spanish league lead.
The home win gave the Catalan club a
seven-point lead over Real Madrid, which visits Getafe tonight.
Barcelona and Madrid will meet in
the Copa del Rey final on Saturday in Seville, the Spanish MARCA newspaper
reported.
Olmo’s winner came a minute into the
second half at Montjuic stadium, with the playmaker finding the net from inside
the area.
It was the third consecutive victory
for Barcelona in the league.
Mallorca, which has only two wins
from its last nine matches, stayed in seventh place.
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick made
several changes to his starting lineup, with forward Ansu Fati making his first
league start in nearly six months. Striker Robert Lewandowski was absent
because of a muscle injury.
