Barcelona defender Pique fears title race blown

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique fears they’ve blown the title after drawing with Sevilla.

Pique has played down Barcelona‘s chances of winning the LaLiga Santander title following their 0-0 draw at Sevilla on Friday night.

Real Madrid have the chance to overtake Barcelona at the top of the table when they play Real Sociedad on Sunday.

“I think it’s going to be very difficult to win this league,” Pique said at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.

“We’re going to do everything possible, but I don’t suppose [Real Madrid] are going to drop very many points.

“It’s no longer in our hands and it will be difficult for Real Madrid to drop points.

“From what we’ve seen in the last two matchdays, it will be difficult.”

Barcelona started and ended the game strongly in Seville and Pique rued their missed opportunities.

“We had more chances and more control than them,” he said.

“We created [chances], but we couldn’t score.

“They’re third in the table, they’re a top-class team.

“The draw leaves us in a position where [the title] doesn’t depend on us.”
