Real Madrid Can Clinch Second at Levante Badalona - Real Madrid C. F. Femenino
Real Madrid can lock up second place in levante badalona - real madrid c. f. femenino on Tuesday with a win at FC Badalona Women, or by getting help from FC Barcelona. The margin is three points over Real Sociedad, and Madrid owns the head-to-head tiebreaker.
Pau Quesada’s route to second
That gives Pau Quesada a straightforward path in jornada 29. If his team wins in Badalona, the runner-up spot is secured immediately. If not, Real Madrid still can finish the job by waiting for Real Sociedad’s trip to FC Barcelona on Wednesday.
Real Sociedad has to win at the Johan Cruyff to keep its chances alive. Barcelona is the new European champion, and Sociedad’s defeat to Barcelona in the first leg was its only league loss this season.
Badalona’s home test
FC Badalona Women adds a real hurdle because it is a competitive side that raises its level at home. Madrid is not chasing a title or a European place here; those are already decided with two matches left in the season. The only open question at the top is who finishes behind Barcelona.
That leaves Madrid in control, but not fully on its own. A draw or loss in Badalona pushes the decision to Wednesday, and the table favors Madrid if Real Sociedad cannot produce a result at Barcelona.
Two matches left
With two matches remaining, the fight is for the honorific second place rather than silverware or qualification. Madrid can take care of it now in Badalona, or it can let the season’s last run of games settle the runner-up spot for it.
