AS Editor-in-Chief Juan Jiménez Analyzes Barça’s Lineup for the Final: Can Gündogan, De Jong, and Sergi Roberto Dominate the Midfield?

“Like evoking what happened last season in Riyadh, and will accompany Gündogan, De Jong and Sergi Roberto in the midfield. The ownership of the Canary Islands sends João Félix to the bench, in a role that the coach hopes will be similar to the one he played against Osasuna last Thursday. It is assumed that this will be one of the changes at the edge of match time”

“Barça ensures many chances of keeping the ball in the game. In return, it is difficult to see their points of imbalance. Ferran is a player who goes more into space and Lewandowski, a finisher. The rest of the midfielders are not players either. one against one, so the objective will be positional play, breaks into space from the wing (Balde) and bursts from the second line (Sergi Roberto, Pedri, De Jong…). The question of the defense. Araújo will closely monitor Vinicius, we will see if from the lateral or central position.”
