Real Madrid in Ferocious Form: Xabi Alonso’s Side Leading La Liga — Can They Finally Triumph Over Barcelona?
Spain’s white half is buzzing again. Under Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid have rediscovered their rhythm, their pride, and perhaps even their destiny. At the top of the La Liga table in 2025, Los Blancos are every inch champions-in-waiting — and much of that can be attributed to their new manager and his irrepressible phenom, Kylian Mbappé.
After their disorganized 2024 campaign everywhere overpowered by Hansi Flick’s Barcelona, who trashed Madrid four times, the script has turned on its head. The Bernabéu is buzzing again, and the question being asked all over Spain is straightforward:
???? Can Real Madrid finally defeat their bitter rivals this season?
???? Kylian Mbappé — The Spark Madrid Needed
The arrival of Kylian Mbappé turned everything upside down. The French sensation has dominated La Liga, scoring in nearly every match and showing the world why he is the greatest striker in the world. His chemistry with Vinícius Jr. and arda gular has made Madrid’s offense a nightmare to defend.
Mbappé’s speed, movement, and finishing have given Alonso’s system its cutting edge. He’s not just scoring — he’s psyching out a team that was already playing perhaps as well as anyone.
“He’s a leader, not a finisher,” Alonso said. “Mbappé’s energy brings everyone up.”
Barcelona and Hansi Flick: Still a Threat

Meanwhile, Barcelona aren’t going to let it go. Under Hansi Flick’s leadership, they remain tactically sharp and dangerous. Pedri, Yamal, and rashford Fermín López’s talents still shine, and their merciless pressing can still haunt any team. al though raphinha will miss the mach and Lewandowski also whtat could barca do ?
A Title Race Written in Fire
Halfway through the campaign, Real Madrid are sitting comfortably at the top of the table, with the league’s best defense and one of the most attacking offenses. Every game now is a declaration of intent.
Supporters believe this could be the beginning of a new golden era under Xabi Alonso — one built on tactical intelligence and galactico production. And if Madrid are to beat Barcelona, it will confirm what everyone now anticipates: power in Spain has come back to the capital.
