0-3! 4-0! A sad and happy night for the giants: The defending Premier League champions suffered an upset defeat to the penultimate place, and Barcelona overtook Real Madrid to reach the top.

In the early morning of November 23, the two major league games ended at almost the same time. For the two European giants, it can be said to be a night of sorrow and joy. In the 12th round of the Premier League, defending champion Liverpool suffered an upset, losing 0-3 to second-to-last Nottingham Forest, netting three goals. In the 13th round of La Liga, Barcelona, ​​one of the two traditional giants, scored 4 goals and defeated Athletic Bilbao 4-0.

Last season, Liverpool was very strong and won the championship early. However, this season, Liverpool has fallen into confusion. It lost 5 games in the first 11 rounds of the Premier League and suffered a 0-3 defeat in the last round of direct rival Manchester City.

Liverpool returned to home this round and faced the visiting Nottingham Forest, the penultimate team. The entire Red Army team should be aiming to win a big victory to vent their frustrations over the previous disastrous defeat. Unexpectedly, Liverpool not only failed to win a big victory, but also suffered a 0-3 defeat.

In the first half, Nottingham Forest took 4 shots and 2 of them were on target. Murillo scored in a melee from a corner kick, leading Liverpool 1-0.

At the beginning of the second half, less than a minute later, Liverpool's defense missed another goal and Savona followed up with a push shot, extending Nottingham Forest's lead 2-0. Liverpool's counterattack failed, but they conceded a third goal in the 78th minute. Hutchinson's inward volley was saved by Alisson, and the unmarked Gibbs-White scored with a supplementary shot. Nottingham Forest locked the final score at 3-0!

In La Liga, Barcelona, ​​which is also the defending champion, is in a much better situation than Liverpool. After the first 12 rounds, Barcelona is only 3 points behind the leader Real Madrid, and Barcelona's offensive power ranks among the best in Europe.

In this round, Barcelona finally ushered in its first game back at Camp Nou, facing the powerful Athletic Bilbao. In the standings before the game, Barcelona ranked second, and Athletic Bilbao was also ranked seventh. In this strong dialogue, Barcelona's overall strength is certainly stronger than Athletic Bilbao, but the 4-0 score is still a little surprising.

In the 4th minute, Barcelona got off to a dream start. After Lewandowski passed through the crotch, he scored with a powerful shot! Near the end of the first half, Barcelona found another opportunity to counterattack. Ferran scored a single low shot and Barcelona expanded their lead to 2-0.

After changing sides, Barcelona's offensive continued unabated and continued to press Athletic Bilbao. It was still one after another. Barcelona scored two more goals in the 48th and 90th minutes. Fermin scored and Ferran completed the double goal.

After a hearty 4-0 victory, Barcelona tied with Real Madrid with 31 points in one more game, and surpassed Real Madrid with a goal difference advantage to temporarily top the La Liga standings!
