"Barcelona's commanding nine-point lead in La Liga places them in a strong position to secure the title, with only seven matches remaining in the season."
"If Barcelona continues their dominant form and clinches the league title before the Clasico, Real Madrid would be required to perform the 'pasillo' at Camp Nou."
"The last instance of the 'pasillo' tradition being honored was in 1988, making the potential for this gesture a significant moment in Spanish football history."
"Real Madrid's focus has shifted from competing for the title to damage control, aiming to avoid the embarrassment of giving Barcelona a guard of honour."
Barcelona has established a nine-point lead in La Liga after Real Madrid's recent loss. With only seven matches left, the title is within reach. If Barcelona secures the title before facing Real Madrid, tradition requires Madrid to perform the 'pasillo' at Camp Nou. This would be significant, marking the first such occurrence since 1988. However, the tradition has been contentious since 2018 when Zinedine Zidane refused to acknowledge it. Real Madrid is now focused on damage control to avoid a public display of respect for their rival.
