1. ADMIRED ATTACK AND LOCAL GOAL.
Atleti drew at the Bernabéu and the leader’s match against Almería was worth 5 points. A great opportunity was wasted. And the set of Xavi because the team from Almería defended with a lot of tactical order and aerial solvency. Barça showed eleven Ferran Torres to the right, Lewandowski inside and the left wing for Jordi Alba. All three wanted time to play their attacking football but the full-backs, Akieme/Chumiand the central Babic/ Rodrigo Ely they are always well attended eguaras, Of the sickle, robertone and the tireless Baptista.
No matter how much the Catalans had possession of the ball, they achieved a slight imbalance. Flat offensive match of the blaugranas because the highest danger is, again and again, the attacks of Jordi Alba. Telegraphed attack.
And with little but excellent execution, Almería got 1-0. ball for Suarezpass behind the Christensen and tour takes, advances, protects and points the winning right hand. Matches the script of Almería.
2. XAVI IS CHANGING BUT FERNANDO KEEP CALM
It’s clear that the Blaugrana team has to be one with high pressure that causes the opponent to make mistakes; the leader that when he reaches three/quarters of the field, the lights come on to give the forward, or interior, an advantage. Nothing happened because there was nothing Peter neither Dembele recovered, everything continues to be predictable for the supportive and needy Almería. After the break, raphinha in grass and Ferran on the left wing to attack with a more natural 4-3-3. Barca’s expected reaction only came with an increase in attack frequency. More speed on the ball, more crosses into the local area but the psychological goal, the tie, did not come. In ’66, Araujo and Mark Alonso inside and the group with a slogan repeated by Xavi: open the field (with two extremes) so you don’t get choked by indoor football.
More centers in the area where Rodrigo Ely he cleaned them all and, when he didn’t come, neither raphinha neither Araujo neither Lewandowski they managed to connect good headers. stuck
3. ON AIR GAME ONLY WITH OPTIONS
This speaks ill of Barça’s bottom game. The scene of the game is as follows: Almería is increasingly close to their own area, the leader puts the centers hoping to achieve a clean sheet to equalize the rivalry. The path is clear because within there is no possibility to arrive or finish Dejong and Gavi. then enter Paul Tower but he also needs to get the ball out on the sideline. With the only attack method and no defense problem (Ruby He puts players on the bench and only Embarba could have had a chance but when Barça risked all positions), Araujo in the second center forward position. And that’s where Barça is tied. The Uruguayan has magnet and air power but the goal Ferdinand He was miraculously saved. Blaugrana pushed to the end and defeat was saved by Madrid’s stumbling. Many days left but clearly nothing Peter neither dembele the team has less level. Mental reset for another Cup.
