Goals: 72. Pedri
Barcelona exchanged places with Seville and returned behind the leader of Real Madrid. Her bark by coach Xavi so far is excellent and she is only twelve points short of the top, which would have seemed like nonsense a few months ago. Today, the only goal for her was the young Pedri.
The idea that Barcelona would have 60 points after thirty matches and only 9 were missing from the forehead and the biggest rival would seem to even the most ardent Blaugranas fans a few months ago to be pure madness and utopia. But in theory, that could be true. At the moment, Barcelona managed to beat Seville at home and get to second place behind Real, with the fact that, as the only team in the top four, it can play another match.
Of course, it was clear to Barcelona that there was a lot at stake today, and from the first minutes it showed a huge appetite for the game. Undoubtedly, she wished to emulate the recent match with Real Madrid. After twelve minutes, Dembélé’s delicate waist centered on Frenkie de Jong’s head, and he could only aim his head high above.
Perhaps it was the awareness of the responsibility and importance of today’s duel that may have bound the feet of the two elevens. Because the once-off-acting teams are more hiding behind a large number of recordings and primarily an effort not to make a mistake.
One minute before the end of the first half, the Pedri – Dembélé – Torres Barcelona axis got into a better chance, which Koundé struck at the last moment. Lamela’s speed was clear to see after 70 minutes as he darted past his marker and struck an opening pass to the right. Both defenses worked very reliably.
Over time, it became clear that the match today might well be the only goal. And he hung in the air. Especially after Gerard Piqué headed around the corner only into the crossbar! Seville did nothing about this warning and soon paid for it. Dembélé came up with a lime record for a young man whom no one will call anything but Pedri. The surprising puller of the Blaugranas offensive made two loops, thus getting rid of the defender and firing out of the reach of the goalkeeper Bounoua!
