Atletico Madrid dig in again to edge past struggling Rayo Vallecano
Joao Felix's superb pass set up Koke's winner as Atletico Madrid jumped to third in La Liga on Saturday with a 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano. With Barcelona playing Real Madrid in the Clasico on Sunday, Atletico took advantage at Vallecas, their fifth consecutive victory giving them some breathing space in the fight for the top four. They had to see out the last nine minutes with 10 men after Angel Correa, on as a substitute, was sent off. But just as they did against Manchester United on Tuesday in the Champions League, Atletico dug in and held on.
Xavi says Barcelona's 'doors are open' to Lionel Messi
Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez said on Saturday "the doors are open" to Lionel Messi. Xavi was speaking in a press conference ahead of the El Clasico on Sunday, when Barca face La Liga leaders Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. Messi has endured a disappointing season at Paris Saint-Germain although Barca's dire financial situation would make re-signing the Argentinian difficult. La Liga's latest spending restrictions published last week set Barcelona's limit at -144 million euros ($159 million). It means the club will have to make considerable savings to sign anyone in the next transfer window. Messi was let go last year because Barca could not afford to renew his contract, bringing an emotional end to the striker's historic career at Camp Nou. Asked if he would open the door to Messi coming back, Xavi said: "He is the best player in history and the history of the club, he's earned the right to have the doors open to him. "As long as I am coach the doors are open to him if he wants to come any day. He is the best in history and as a club we owe him a great tribute, he deserves it, but he has a contract with PSG, so there is little more I can tell you. "If he wants to come any day, to see training, talk to the coach, the doors are open because he is the best player in the history of the club."
