Barca the team to beat as La Liga returns

Finally, the Spanish La Liga gets underway this weekend after players’ strike had forced its original scheduled start last weekend to be put on hold—but thank god it was for only a weekend. The strike forced the postponement of the opening round of games in Spain’s top two divisions, but on Thursday, the players and league officials reached a deal to end it, much to the delight of Spanish football followers around the world.
