Real Madrid's chances of clinching the LaLiga title suffered a significant setback as star forward Vinicius Jr and defender Lucas Vazquez were sidelined following injuries. The duo was hurt during Sunday's 4-3 loss to fierce rivals Barcelona.

Vinicius, who has been crucial for Real, scoring 11 goals and providing seven assists this season, sustained a left ankle sprain. Vazquez, on the other hand, is struggling with a thigh muscle injury. The club has yet to announce a recovery timeline for the players.

The news adds to the woes of Real Madrid, who are already competing without several key first-team members. Currently, they stand seven points adrift of the league leaders with only three games remaining.
