On matchweek 28, Kylian Mbappe's brace led Real Madrid to a gutsy comeback win over Villareal to keep the pace at the top. But the most significant result came a day later, as Barcelona came back from a two goal deficit to defeat title rivals Atlético Madrid.

Barcelona struck a potentially decisive blow in La Liga’s title race with a 4-2 win against Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano. Diego Simeone’s home team went ahead through Julian Alvarez in the 45th minute — with the Argentina forward banishing memories of his ‘two-touch’ penalty in Atletico’s Champions League round-of-16 exit to Real Madrid in midweek.

Atlético Madrid take on Barcelona at the Metropolitano Stadium on Sunday, March 16. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. CET local time, making it a 4 p.m. ET and 1 p.m. PT start in the US, an 8 p.m. GMT start in the UK and 7 a.m. AEDT kickoff in Australia on Monday morning.
