Albiol: Title hopes over if Real Madrid do not beat Espanyol

Real Madrid defender Raul Albiol feels they cannot afford anything less than victory over Espanyol this weekend.

Albiol fears anything but a win will end their title hopes.

He stated to EFE: “We have no margin for error, because if we lose it means we can virtually say goodbye to the league."

“Espanyol are a difficult team because they have a good record at home. Everyone knows that they will really want to win, and we cannot fail. We are seven points behind Barcelona, so we better win.”
