Suffered victory of a grey Barça in the hell of Porto (0-1)

The FC Barcelona had a mission complicated in his visit to the Port wine in the second day of the Champions League 23/24 and like this has been. The meeting in Portugal began with the venues incomodando constantly to the ones of Xavi with several contragolpes, the way in which clearly they had posed the party, something that attained in several opportunities.

Oriol Romeu and Joao Cancel surely were the two footballers that more took in acclimating the party. The first lost several balloons in the first 10 or 15 minutes of party, whereas the side saw early a yellow card after having to brake to Galeno (minute 12), when the extreme left of face to door with command of the balloon, although that action did not happen to greater.

The Barça found with a very physical and fast Port wine

Near of the 20 minutes would arrive two important actions in the development of the party. First, the Port wine protested a possible penalti of Koundé on one of the forwards of the Portuguese team, although neither the referee neither the VAR observed some infringement. Shortly after it would arrive a strong infringement on Robert Lewandowski, the one who shortly after the half hour of party had to abandon the field of game by an important annoyance in his left ankle.

In the attack of the Barça, with and without Lewandowski on the lawn, Joao Félix was the one who more tried desequilibrar to a defence of the Port wine that was interested in baling out the spaces near of his goal, but with little disposal for presionar the exit of the culés. The Portuguese had a pair of shots inside the Portuguese area, although between the defenders and the Portuguese goalkeeper could control both played.

Ferran changed the destination of the party

Lamine Yamal began to have increasingly leadership to measure that approached the end of the first time, especially trying look for to Ferran that it already was situated like the leading Barcelona centre. The two Spanish attackers looked for the first so much of the Barça, which finally would arrive in the minute 45+1, little more than a minute afterwards that the '7' already had warned to the guardameta Diogo Coast with a finish very centred.

The 'tiburon' took advantage of an error in exit to receive to the space a big pass of Gündogan. The German was the attendant to recover the balloon and after driving by some metres did not doubt in finding to Ferran and leave him in front of the goal of the Port wine. The Valencian resolved with solvency the opportunity with a shot of left-handed to the short stick, happening besides between the legs of Coast.

With this stage, standing out also the cautions of Araújo and Gavi, would begin the second time for the Barça, now yes with much more control of the party and one some ease to step the area of the Port wine. The ones of Xavi seemed to receive the profit of the wear of the lusos in the first 45 minutes and could have something more than tranquility in defence, although clearly no total.

The second time was of major prominence for the defence of the Barça

First Koundé saw a yellow to few minutes to begin the complement of the party, although the French no thus it would lose the concentration and his leadership in the defence culé, showing it with a spectacular closing in front of Pepê less than five minutes afterwards. The extreme of the Port wine armed his shot to define in front of Ter Stegen and the Frenchman could clear the balloon and command the played only to a shot of corner.

Like this they would leave the following 15 minutes of the second party and arrival already the hour of party the Portuguese club would move his bench with the entrance of Evanilson, the one who second afterwards enabled to the side Wendell for a finish something uncomfortable, that finally was cleared by the '1' of the Barça with one of his feet. It would not be the only unemployed of Ter Stegen, the one who to the 71' would go back to detain another finish of a Port wine that changed the tonic of the second time during these minutes.

The changes of Xavi did not have too impact in the end

With Sergi Roberto and Fermín already in the field (69'), in addition to Marcos Alonso when it arrived the minute 80, the Barça looked for to have possessions much longer to try move away to the lusos of his goal. However, the Port wine yes that was very near of the 1-1 when the referee of the meeting signalled a penalti to his favour, although later with help of the VAR changed his decision.

To the 82' sucedería a similar situation, although now yes much clearer to visualise for the referees. Taremi Marked an alucinante Chilean, but the Iranian was half step adelantero and quickly his so much was cancelled. The last minutes of party would be with a similar dynamics, highlighting that the Barça did not show a big sólidez defensive, but yes being able to keep up in the marker in spite of not having the control of the party, and having even the expulsion by double yellow of Gavi already in the 90+2'.
