Papers: Barcelona are back in the title race

Barcelona registered an incredible victory over Real Sociedad at the Camp Nou the other night. The Catalans successfully took down the league leaders and are now back in the game. Of course, the road towards the top is still very difficult and long but this is a great start.

Mundo Deportivo are saying that Barcelona are hooked and that they’ve demonstrated the best half of the season yesterday night.

Even though they couldn’t sustain it for the full 90 minutes, Ronald Koeman’s troops showed heart and skill to reach the fifth place in the table, six points behind the first-placed team.

SPORT are saying the same thing, suggesting that there is a race to be had for Barcelona in La Liga after all.

They even call it a resurrection of sorts as the Catalans finally show what they’re capable of by taking down the league leaders and announcing themselves to Spain.

Goals from Frenkie de Jong and Jordi Alba sealed the deal for Barcelona as they managed to snatch away all three points at the Camp Nou.
