Reunion with success and the rest with a good taste in the mouth

After ending the winning streak at home, the FC Barcelona regained the path of success at home by losing to Atlético de Madrid (2-0) after a recent draw match I raised. Yes, the rivalry against the ‘granota’ of the past days ended with all ingredients. A day of the week, with bad weather, a bad schedule and a postponed match, this Sunday against the red and white was quite the opposite. The time of 1:30 pm could not be better to go to Johan with the family, the weather, although cold, was respected by a sunny day to revive the mourning. Furthermore, a historic and prestigious rival like Atlético awaits on the pitch, which will put up a strong opposition to the locals.

It should be expected that yes Giraldez He has almost consistently used his perfect eleven in the last few games, barring one or two changes, this time it will be no different. Walsh and Marion They turned around and left the house instead Pineapple and brugtsthe last of the ‘nine’.

Barça’s engine gradually warmed up and the ball settled on the red-and-white field, apart from a few isolated cavalcades of Lyudmila and Ajibadewho unsuccessfully sought to surprise Cata Coll. After some brand action from the house of graham, with dizzying spirals parallel to the baseline that barely produced a goal, Aragonese Salma broke the tie on the stroke of half-time. Pressure of Aitanarecovery of fathergo to the space of the Balearic Islands brugts and he left this one for Salma who is still in a state of grace and the first point is over.

Before the break, controversial play. The college Olatz Rivera Olmedoa bad memory for the blaugranas after the famous 2021 Super Cup semi-final where they stole two penalties from the culés, who ended up losing that day, unleashed the fury of Jonathan Giraldez and their players. A clear corner in favor of the culés not called by Rivera preceded by an athletically dangerous action that ended up with a yellow card for him Copper.

He turned the stage a little and Barça He maintained control of the ball as the second act progressed, but this dominance did not translate into clear-cut chances. Lots of people hanging around grandma, endless triangulation at breakneck speed, but no clear shots on goal. The culé group, seeing that they could not find the last gap, decided to shoot from a distance and Walls first and father Immediately afterwards they came close to scoring a second. The central defender’s shot went wide and the Balearic player’s shot was deflected grandma with a nice pause. Exactly after one shot, this closest, from the penalty spot, came the second. Ona Batlle forced the goal to lay down a good hand but it was there Vicky Lopezof ‘goal hunters’ to finish behind the net.

Barça’s reaction after the draw against Levante was impeccable. Success, good feelings and now rest, as a club, to the next break of the national team.
