La Liga: Four things we learned in Spain’s matchday 24
The Spanish La Liga has experienced quite a few changes every weekend as the race for the title hots up after Real Madrid were held to a draw.
Atletico Madrid’s France defender Lucas Hernandez was on Saturday given medical clearance to play as the team concluded its preparations for its upcoming La Liga game against Levante.
Lucas has been on the sideline for five games since sustaining a right knee injury during Atletico’s 3-0 La Liga win over Alaves on December 8, but it seemed to be a thing of the past as he trained normally with the team.
