Soccer-Spain's big three resume title race after burning bridges over Super League

After angering La Liga by signing up to the European Super League, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona continue the closest title race in Europe this weekend amid accusations of greed from the league's other clubs.

Real went top of the standings on Wednesday with a 3-0 win at Cadiz after getting a frosty reception from the home supporters, who shouted"money grabbers" at Zinedine Zidane's side as they arrived for the match.They next host a game on Saturday against fifth-placed Real Betis, who caused a stir on social media shortly after the breakaway league was announced by issuing an 'updated' version of the Liga table without Real, Barca and Atletico.

Real and Barca are the only teams among the Super League's 12 founding members yet to withdraw from the project and Real president Florentino Perez insists the plan is not dead yet. Sevilla, who still have a slim chance of winning the title and went third on 67 points after Wednesday's 1-0 victory at Levante, are the only side in the race who did not sign up to the Super League. They host Granada on Sunday.
