Barcelona Fans Blast Ferran Torres After Girona Loss Hands Madrid La Liga LeadFebruary 17, 2026 7:03 PM Full SummaryBarcelona fell 2-1 to Girona on Monday, surrendering the La Liga top spot to Real Madrid by two points following a second straight loss. Pau Cubarsí scored early in the second half, but quick replies from Thomas Lemar and Fran Beltrán sealed the upset amid controversy over a non-called foul on Jules Koundé. Torres, starting up top, fired a key shot wide and has just one league goal in his last seven games despite 12 tallies this season; fans called him 'useless as cow dung' and 'absolute dogshit,' highlighting his high expected goals but low output. Key TakeawayFerran Torres missed a golden chance in the Catalan derby, and Barcelona fans let loose with their frustration after the 2-1 defeat at Montilivi. Context & EntitiesTopics

Barcelona Lose La Liga Lead to Girona in Late ThrillerFebruary 18, 2026 10:06 PM Full SummaryBarcelona fell 2-1 to Girona on Monday, dropping two points behind Real Madrid with 58 points after 24 games. Frenkie de Jong drew heavy criticism for routine passes and weak defending without injured Pedri, who's been out since January 21 and expected back late this month. Fans and outlets questioned his impact, though some defend his past highs; Pedri's return could restore midfield balance as Hansi Flick resets the squad for Sunday's rebound. Key TakeawayPau Cubarsi gave Barcelona the lead, Lamine Yamal missed a penalty, and then Fran Beltran's 86th-minute strike flipped the Catalan derby on its head. Context & EntitiesTopics

Spanish Court Orders VPNs to Block Pirate LaLiga StreamsFebruary 18, 2026 5:27 AM Full SummaryA Córdoba court ruled that NordVPN and ProtonVPN must block IP addresses for 16 pirate sites streaming LaLiga matches without permission, calling the providers technological intermediaries under EU law. LaLiga celebrated the order as a win against evasion tactics like VPN geo-unblocking, but both companies decried the unnotified, ex parte decision as unfair and ineffective since pirates switch addresses easily. The move builds on 2024 ISP blocks that already cause weekend outages for banks, government sites, social apps, and more, amid complaints over LaLiga's high costs up to €109 monthly fueling illegal viewing. Key TakeawayLaLiga fans dodging pricey streams now face a new hurdle: courts telling VPNs to shut down access to pirate sites right in Spain. Context & EntitiesTopics
