The gaping difference between Atlético and Madrid was that the former had unyielding belief while the latter did not, hence the respective outcomes on Wednesday night.

The Champions League group stage took flight on Tuesday night with good results for Barcelona and especially Valencia.

A Barcelona supporting friend of mine claimed on Saturday: "These performances from Ansu Fati won't be long in curing Messi's injury"...

Yesterday's game between Real Madrid and Levante at the Bernabéu left us with five goals, Hazard's home debut and plenty of talking points, writes Alfredo Relaño.
