Almost all objectives were achieved by Hansi Flick's men, playing and pressing at different speeds, the first half and the second were spectacular. The 'almost' was because by creating so many chances, the score of 3-0 once again fell short.</p> <span class="content-ad-module "> <span class="content-ad visible-md irr-container hidden-ad"><span class="ad-unit irr"> </span></span><span class="content-html"><span class="intext-md hidden-xs hidden-md"> </span></span></span><span class="content-ad-module "> <span class="content-ad visible-xs roba-container hidden-ad"><span class="ad-unit roba"> </span></span></span><p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">Jagoba Arrasate's team planted a line of five in defense (Morey on the right side and Maffeo as third defender) and Muriqi up front to try to prolong Leo Román's direct play. Good defensive order from the visitors and counterattacks for Jan Virgili to attack the Koundé zone. The leader had the ball, but was unable to reach the visiting area clearly.</p> <span class="dynamic-ad-module "/><span class="content-ad-module "> <span class="content-ad visible-xs irr-container hidden-ad"><span class="ad-unit irr"> </span></span><span class="content-html"><span class="intext-xs hidden-xs hidden-md"/></span></span><p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">Three semi-lows, two for Virgili himself and one for Pirata, alerted a Barça that was not doing well in the final meters. Lots of elaboration, few chances to score.</p> <p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">Seeing the Blaugrana's lack of depth, −Lamine remained calm; observing and warming up the engines, Dani Olmo showed how to put Mallorca in trouble: shooting from outside the area. Rashford accepted the brilliant idea and then FC Barcelona saw the light.</p> <span class="dynamic-ad-module "/><span class="content-ad-module "> <span class="content-ad visible-xs roba-container hidden-ad"><span class="ad-unit roba"> </span></span></span><p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph"><strong>2. LEWANDOWSKI DIDN'T FORGIVE AND BARÇA WAS RELEASED</strong></p> <p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph"><a href=""> </a>Robert didn't get any clean crosses into the box, but the first ball he got, a David López rebound after Marcus Rashford's shot, he controlled, switched the imminent shot with his left foot for half a turn and, with his right hand, left Leo Román unanswered.</p> <span class="dynamic-ad-module "/><span class="content-ad-module "> <span class="content-ad visible-xs roba-container hidden-ad"><span class="ad-unit roba"> </span></span></span><p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">Minute 29, Barça and Lamine started to make differences; above all, increasing the speed of the ball and the pressure after losing it.</p> <p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">From then until halftime, the savior of the Vermilion team, resistance in the face of chances with the visiting goalkeeper stunned by the increase in work. Mallorca got rid of the second in the last action of this first act: Rashford's foul, Román's strike, mixed in on the right by Jules Koundé and Lamine, almost under the goal, is unable to finish the job. Maffeo was close to him and I think that's why he couldn't score the goal. He saved it for the second half.</p> <span class="content-ad-module "> <span class="content-ad visible-xs roba-container hidden-ad"><span class="ad-unit roba"> </span></span></span><p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph"><strong>3. UNSTOPABLE BLADE, GREAT BERNAL</strong></p> <p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">Without a doubt, the game and the pressure sustained by Barça since the restart were the pillars of the great spectacle. The Blaugrana team's change of speed, Lamine's unexpected dribbles, the constant 'biting' from Eric García, Cubarsí, Casadó, Fermín and even Yamal himself (as Flick and our fans were happy to see the winger's pressure), brought joy to the Blaugrana and defensive suffering to Arrasate.</p> <span class="dynamic-ad-module "/><p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">With the score at 2-0, in the 61st minute, with a left-footed shot from outside the area, Lamine showed that he also 'used' Olmo and Rashford's idea. Too much of an advantage for him, seeing all of Leo Román's teammates in his area. Changes for Jagoba Arrasate (of the four most offensive players) and Hansi Flick. No affectation or alteration of the joy of the great football that the Blaugranas played.</p> <p data-gtm-element-container="modulo-texto-link" class="paragraph">Marc Bernal's game performance ended in the 83rd minute, thanks to a filtered pass from Fermín on a Barça counterattack! Race into space, successful and unexpected cut for Maffeo and explosion of joy at Nou Camp Nou. Bright; like Joan Garcia when it was her turn to act.</p> </div><script type="script/gg"> gg.didomi.doWhenConsent(!window.didomiBypass, 'c:facebooka-frU9M5JY', function () { console.log('facebook-ad-def'); !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s) {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod? n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)}; if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0'; n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0; t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script', 'https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js'); fbq('init', '682047071976590'); fbq('track', 'PageView'); }); </script>
