*Bilbao’s Team Champions Against Zalgiris and Olympiacos*
The Safe Victory of Basque Country and Olympiacos, Barcelona Survived Zalgiris
A great win in both of these matches proves that Spanish football remains strong. Olympiacos and Barcelona, two of the most successful teams in Spain, faced an intense rivalry in the last matches of the Greek Super League, known as "Super Ellada."
Olympiacos had struggled in recent weeks, losing their 7th match in a row before playing against Barcelona, which won its 43rd consecutive match with goals from Lionel Messi (25) and Luis Suarez (10). The match ended in a 2-0 victory for Olympiacos thanks to goals from Georgios Samaras (28) and Alvaro Morata (20), as well as another goal from Lionel Messi (5).
However, a draw was the perfect result for the Basque Country team of Athletic Bilbao against Zalgiris, which put them at the top of La Liga. Zalgiris played their hearts out and got a lot of possession, but they were unable to create enough chances to score against a team who had not lost any games since September. It was a good draw to bring hope back to Athletic Bilbao and their supporters, who had been watching their team struggle lately.
The performance of La Liga is consistent overall, with teams not always being able to beat each other. However, it is clear that Barca has a better chance to win than Olympiacos, despite being just 1 point ahead of the Blaugrana.
