Barcelona Remains Atop La Liga After 0-0 Draw with Real Madrid in El Clasico

Barcelona are still top of La Liga, despite being held to a 0-0 draw by bitter rivals Real Madrid in El Clasico on Wednesday night.

Both sides spurned chances in the first half of what was generally a scrappy affair. Barca centre-back Gerard Pique cleared off his line early, while Real skipper Sergio Ramos followed suit at the other end before the break.

The stalemate at the Camp Nou means Barca still lead the way, thanks to the defending champions' superior goal difference.

What's Next?

Barca host Alaves on Saturday, while Real will be at home to Athletic Bilbao on Sunday.
