Italy PHOTO: Juve Juventus stay in first place as they get 3 crucial points away at AC Milan. Mario Mandžukić is a starter for the bianconeri and is old-fashionedly man marked by Alex.

SPAIN Saturday's version of El Clasico was more about what happened off the pitch than on. Sure, Real Madrid came back to win with 10 men at Camp Nou, but the result will have ZERO impact on Barcelona winning yet another La Liga title. So what did I take away from the game?
