Ramos: We can catch Barcelona
Sergio Ramos insists Real Madrid can catch Barcelona in La Liga after a 3-1 derby win at Atletico Madrid moved his side up to second in the table.
Ramos scored from the penalty spot in Saturday's victory at the Wanda Metropolitano, netting his 11th goal in all competitions this season, making 2018-19 the best scoring record of his career.
Antoine Griezmann had cancelled out Casemiro's bicycle-kick opener before Ramos struck from 12 yards, with Gareth Bale's 100th goal for Madrid wrapping up the club’s first win at the Wanda.
Madrid are now five points behind Barcelona, although the leaders are at Athletic Bilbao on Sunday, and captain Ramos declared the title race alive after a fifth successive league win.
"The league is still to be contested," Ramos said to beIN SPORTS. "There are many points in play and any team can complicate your life as it was seen in the first round [of games].
"We have that hope and we will fight for the league and make it difficult for Barcelona even though they have a very important lead."
