A painless equal, with the more proactive Real, the Barcelona anchored to Messi but in an external context scourged by clashes and wounded. The independentist questions hold sway and it was of little use to refer the Clasico to Wednesday. In the ranking nothing changes, the queens drive in pairs and the Christmas round could worry more the Real, who receives the Athletic rather than the Barcelona that hosts the Alaves. La Liga appears to be stalled, Sevilla third is committed to Majorca, Atletico is undergoing a transfer with Betis, and plans to reach fourth place anyway. Getafe's surprise that Villarreal wants to test its Champions ambitions.
