The gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid has grown in Jose Mourinho's time in charge. Sport says with their defeat to Osasuna, Real's seven point difference with leaders Barca is worse than at any time under the charge of former coach Manuel Pellegrini.
The biggest gap between the two clubs while the Chilean was at the helm was five points.
Real coach Jose Mourinho tried to stay upbeat last night, declaring: "We are now further away from the leader, but tomorrow is another day and Wednesday is another day."
