FC Barcelona: Lessons from a cruel defeat

The Barcelona went back to fall in the Allianz. A classic. However, this time the sensations are different. The team returns to Barcelona with the feeling that they were better and they were able to win the game. It is evident that this time they did compete against a rival that has brought out their colors, and in what way, in recent years. The first part was totally cul, with many good things. The second, on the other hand, was a vulnerable Bara and the sensations he transmitted were not good.

Summary and goals of Bayern Munich 2-0 Barcelona

effective pressure

On the positive side there are several things. First the good pressure that the team did especially in that first half. They didn’t let the opponent get the ball out comfortably and forced them to make mistakes. Everyone worked here, but special mention must be made of Busquets y Gavi who stole countless balls.

Pedri, director

The match of Pedri was also excellent. He was all over the field and was the axis through which the entire offensive game of the rival passed. The penalty was the two occasions that he scored, one in each half. Barcelona knew create many occasions of goal in front of all a Bayern and in his field. Very few teams manage to reach Neuer’s goalkeeper so much and this point is very positive.

Lack of aim and defense

Then come the negative aspects. One of them is the toe. With as many occasions as they were created, Barcelona cannot leave with the locker at zero. They all failed. Lewandowski, the one who never fails, in what was his house was unrecognizable. He also hit with the two actions outlined above. Raphinha had several chances and in the second half Ansu Fati and Ferran They weren’t successful either. With so many arrivals, we have to be more effective. In Europe, and against rivals of this entity, forgiveness is very expensive.

The defense in the second half had nothing to do with the initial. input by the big mistake in the first goal. Lucas entered alone to finish off, but he also did it in an area where the goalkeeper has to command. The small area is Ter Stegen’s territory.

team touched

And the great mentality that the team had in the first half was not the same in the second. The players collapsed with the first German goal. They drifted and that was used by Bayern to sentence with another goal. And some more could fall.

It is a painful defeat because Bara was able to give a blow on the table at the Allianz. I wasted the opportunity due to my own mistakes, but Xavi can draw many positive and negative conclusions from this game.
