Tito Vilanova, who was Barca manager last season, has sadly passed away at the age of 45 after losing his battle with cancer. RIP. :cry:

Really sad. He was credited alot with the work he did when Guardiola first went, and won a title in his only year as head coach...... RIP! 45 years is no age.

He was also close to la Mesia, I think he had worked with a number of their grown up stars as kids. Kind of symbolizes the death of an era in football with his passing. Amazing that, as his life was shortening, he still was able to take the intense pressure of managing Barcelona last year.

Also seemed like a stand up character.

Like I said, a great shame for the footballing community

Was a very tough game to be fair. They haven't won their for over 5 years. Barca drew at Levante while Real only won by 1 goal.

I still think they'll win the league. If Real win their next 3 then Barca will let Atletico win on the last day. Anyway, i can see Real dropping points at Celta.

The Real Madrid president promised to give the Levante team €2m if they won today. Stuff like that shouldn't be allowed but apparently it happens quite a lot in Spain and it's legal i think...

Real won't lose to Espanyol at home, Barca will know that. They'll do anything that's possible to stop Real from winning. Obviously this is presuming Real and Barca manage to get through their tricky away games.
