The casualties marked the era and Xavi Hernandez He had to solve problems week after week to rebuild the team. It wasn’t until yesterday that he was able to fight the whole team again. And certainly, two of those he recovered three weeks ago were key for Barça to confirm the Liga title. Pedri González and Frenkie de Jong They are key for Barcelona Xavi and they showed it again at Cornellà-El Prat in the match against RCD Espanyol. The two midfielders were sorely missed in their absence and against the parakeet team they were key in a football exhibition in midfield.
Both are protagonists and decisive. Peter gave purpose to Alejandro Balde which means 0-2 and showed his superiority in the midfield to once again lead the group of Xavi. The star from the Canary Islands not only stood up for the goal scoring at left back, but he once again showed his ability to lead a team despite being only 20 years old. He didn’t finish the game because he still lacked rhythm, but his minutes on the green were very good, something Xavi always asked for.
And beside him, Dejong, another important man in the last two goals. He opened the 0-3 move, the work of Lewandowski after an assist from Raphinha, and gave the fourth to Koundé, who debuted as a culé scorer this season. Frenkie and Pedri, faithful squires of Busquets, where they learned and grew up, took a step forward in this campaign.
Yesterday they met from the beginning in a repopulated center of the field, the work of Xavi Hernandez, to steal the ball from an innocent Spaniard from the start. The future should be yours. At 26, he is a mature player who showed this year why he insisted on staying at the Camp Nou. Headstrong and self-confident, he confirmed that he should be a key and important piece in the future of culé. Even more now that Busquets is leaving.
He boat He returned to Cornellà with four midfielders. Although the main tweaks are in defense. Balde switched sides in the second half, on the right, and Alba, who came in for Araujo, occupied the left, while Koundé passed on the axis of defense. There were also forced changes. Christenseninjured, retreated to make way for Marcos Alonso.
The remaining tactical movements are Dembele for Raphinha and Ansu Fati, who came in through Gavi.
