Roncero gets excited and predicts a bomb in LaLiga: 'The beautiful thing...'

Real Madrid's victory against Real Mallorca, in the last play of the match, has caused a radical change of scenario in the fight for the LaLiga leadership. At least until FC Barcelona plays this round's match against Espanyol at the RCDE Stadium. One of the most optimistic analyses comes from Tomás Roncero.

Asked about the possible merengues regarding LaLiga, the journalist points out that "any logical head with Cartesian coherence would say 'come on, it's impossible.' But can you believe that while I was waiting for you to let me in, I've made so many calculations" that depend on two defeats of FC Barcelona in the last three matches.

"If Espanyol, taking advantage of the fact that the pericos have their pride, apart from wanting to ensure their permanence, wouldn't stand seeing it again". With that surprising victory of Espanyol over FC Barcelona imagined by Tomás Roncero, the white players "are four" points behind Hansi Flick's pupils. But the journalist from the newspaper As is not finished yet.

Because "suddenly Villarreal, my friend Marcelino's team that last year scored five there in Montjuïc against Barça, playing for the Champions League, on the counter... and Madrid wins at the Pizjuán where Sevilla is saved and gets to one". That ideal future of Tomás Roncero would reduce the distance to just one point between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Difficult yes, impossible no

The leadership would be accessible for the white club in the last round. "Then it turns out that Nico Williams appears and remembers everything that happened last summer... and Madrid, which was just going to make a nice tribute to Ancelotti, well, there everyone crying in the stands" thinking about winning the 37th League title.

Tomás Roncero himself doesn't escape the utopian nature of that imagined discussion, to the point that the journalist himself understands that it is an "unimaginable scenario. Unimaginable to think that Madrid was going to win in the 95th minute with a pass from Fran García to Vallejo who heads it to Jacobo Ramón". The youth player scored the winning goal that keeps Real Madrid's possibilities alive in the current league campaign.

"If someone had made a betting house, they would have bought a house in La Finca", adds the veteran journalist and commentator about the improbability of what happened in the match. Moreover, "the beauty of soccer is that it takes you to unimaginable, unthinkable, and apparently utopian scenarios", acknowledges Tomás Roncero.

But that ability to keep dreaming until the end, even with "unimaginable calculations", is what makes soccer "the king of sports". Tomás Roncero remains hopeful with the prospect of a Real Madrid victory in this League, entrusting himself to the three remaining rivals that FC Barcelona has ahead.
