Hello everyone, welcome to this week's edition of the Spanish Football Podcast, with me

Phil Kitt from Ladies and Siddelo. Hello Siddney. Hello Philip, how are you?

I'm not too bad, how are you doing? Yeah, not too bad, thank you. We have just had the

first round of fixtures in the second half of the season. It's match day 20, so we are officially

over 50% of the way through the season, Siddney. It feels like a milestone. It is a milestone.

Well, it's a proper milestone because everyone's played everyone once, but actually there's a

few little loose games knocking about, so I'm not sure if that's entirely true. I don't know if we'll

think through that. That would be far too sort of nicely symmetrical for La Liga. We like to have

things a little bit, a little bit along with the place, Sidd, you know that. This is what happened

anyway on the matches that we've had so far in match day 20, on Saturday. It finally happened

eight months later, the longest windlass streak in the history of La Liga. Ended 27 matches,

Lavande had gone without a victory, but they finally beat Mallorca, 2-0 on Saturday. They

rode their luck. Mallorca, Mr Penalty had two goals rolled out as well, Lavande, claiming that

that fight or win. There are only five points from safety. It's absolutely crazy to have gone 19

games in a season without winning and still be so close to salvation. Real sausage that ended

there, mini windlass streak. They've gone six games without a victory, but they could be

Celtiveico by a goal to nil. Good at now that. Held Barcelona, 1-1 for the second time this

season. Luke De Jong scoring for the second successive game, but Antonio Puertas, thrashing home,

finally taken goal in the final minutes to make sure that could another, took all three

put, sorry, to get out of claim to a point. The game changed when Gabby got sent off his first

sending off for Barcelona. You feel like there might be some more. I was exactly what I was thinking

you were saying. His first thing off was for the year won't be a last. It won't be his last.
