Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti believes his side can still win the La Liga title despite losing for a second time in four days as it slumped to a 2-1 defeat at Sevilla on Wednesday.
Two goals from Colombian striker Carlos Bacca was enough to hand Sevilla a sixth consecutive league win after Cristiano Ronaldo had put Madrid in front.
Real now trails city rival Atletico Madrid by three points after it beat Granada 1-0 at home. More significantly, Barcelona now has the title back in its grasp as it moved ahead of Real into second, a point behind Atletico, with a 3-0 win over Celta Vigo.
