Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona leaves of Madrid with an advantage of gold, with a lot of merit because the team suffered more than the account and saw forced to defend in his area during the ninety minutes. The ones of Carlo Ancelotti presionaron at all times, but without clarity in the attack and conditioned by a Barcelona group ultradefensivo that took advantage of of the errors of the rival to achieve a 0-1 before the 'sentence' the next 5 April in the Spotify Camp Nou.

Patience and know play the letters, although they are few, have been the recipe of the Barça to go out 'victorious' of a first part in Santiago Bernabéu in which the Real Madrid was undoubtedly upper and handled the spherical to his suitability, avoiding in the majority of occasions the exit of the Barcelona from own field. Xavi Hernández knew that it needed that his no 'lost' the head and kept the calm, because in the parties 'big' is what more voucher. Even when the rival comes you on, as in the case of the madridistas.

The first minutes of the party left a big deployment of the madridistas and to Barça that did not achieve to connect three or four passes followed without losing the balloon. The defensive efforts were dumped in the right band, to detain to Vinícius Jr, but in the left left a lot of gaps that left to progress to Carvajal, Valverde, Modric or Benzema. The Madrid planted in his house like dominador, but without effect. Without prize. They could advance to the twelve minutes by a goal of Karim Benzema to pass of the '20', but the French split in position advanced and the goal did not finish going up to the marker. It was a mini victory for a Barcelona group that knew that it had to improve and presionar better to avoid that the 'merengues' arrived to the area with tantísima ease, although without clarity.

The lacking forcefulness of the Madrid was the extra life for the Barça in the first part. To the point that, after an unfit defensive and a childish loss of Eduardo Camavinga, that was being one of the best on the lawn for the madridistas, the Barcelona group achieved to advance in his first finish to the arch. With 'help' of the madridistas, after the seguidilla of errors, and fortune because, after a finish of Kessié that Courtois refused, the rebound fell in the boots of Eder Militãor that commanded the balloon inside. Nacho, in the line of goal, neither could take out the balloon so that, after review of the VAR, the Classical began with advantage for the ones of Xavi.

It was the first symptom that the Barça had woken up in the Bernabéu, something that aplacó to a Madrid that, until this moment, lived in contrary field without opposition. The goal happened bill 'emotional' and, although the culés were much more attentive and firm of centre of field for backwards, did not translate in more approaches to the area of Thibaut Courtois. The ones of Carlo Ancelotti were those that 'injected' emotion of to little to a party in which the Barcelona had 'renounced' to his style, but that were 'sustaining' the result.

The Madrid, command without clarity neither goal

In the resumption both teams gave continuity to the same plan: the Madrid achieved to be more leading, with clear approaches of Vinícius Jr that refused the Barcelona defenders one and again. The Barça devoted to expect in his area, shut, and like this 'brake' to the venues. The '20' achieved to send a centre that was poisoning on the way and that forced the exit of Ter Stegen to avoid that colara in the goal.

The Catalans had a sinfín of problems to go out of his field and, although the Madrid was not having very clear occasions, was desquiciando to a Barça without 'magic' and that, when it looked for oxigenarse with trancisiones rapidas to launch to the attack, did not find to anybody up to generate danger. Raphinha Was the only that, by his speed, could give 'air', but neither was very accompanied. The clearest for the culés arrived, casually, after the entrance of Ansu Fati, although it served of 'enemy' for his: Kessié commanded a direct shot to goal, taking advantage of, that the 'house' of the Madrid was alone, but the '10' diverted the balloon.

The Camp Nou will dictate sentence

The true is that the Barça goes out with a result more than positive in a night that painted to be complicated by the rain of drops in the staff but that the team has achieved to resolve so that, in spite of the advantage, was the Spotify Camp Nou the one who dictate sentences the next 5 April, with the party of turn. The crash, very contested, leaves a very good news for the culés: even renouncing to his style can go out with 'life'.

It supposes a 'release' for the ones of Xavi, that carried two defeats followed, in Europe League and LaLiga. For the turn, will have the return of key pieces like Lewandowski, Pedri and Dembélé, players that always elevate the level for the Barcelona group. Everything for defining... But with advantage.
