Last party of the season for the FC Barcelona, that finish it playing of the same way that began it: playing a title in front of the Seville. In Vicente Calderón plagado of flags esteladas, senyeras and symbols barcelonistas of all type, the ones of Luis Enrique faced the last final of the season with the will to consecrate the "doublet" of League and Glass and finish, besides, the course with a "póker" of titles explaining also the ones of the World-wide of Clubs and the Supercopa of Europe. As it was to expect, "Struggle" went out to the terrain of game with his eleven of gala and the trident Messi-Neymar-Suárez up, being the three glorious of the Barça the attendants to decant the scales to the edict culé in the Spanish capital. After the pitada initial of the fans of the Barcelona to the Spanish hymn -distorted by the very high volume of the megaphony-, the referee Of the Big Hill used the whistle and the balloon threw to film, with a Barça concentrated and a Seville of Unai Emery, as always, extramotivado and had to sell face the defeat.
The group hispalense jumped to the lawn with a tactical positioning encarado to presionar to the FC Barcelona from the half field and defend with nails and teeth to go out quickly to the counterattack, without presionar with a too advanced line but, this yes, trying contest the possession of balloon to the FC Barcelona. The culés, by against, looked for as always go in in heat by means of long combinations, looking for resquicios between lines with a lot of patience and with mobility of the offensive men, some of them -as Neymar- going down to receive practically to the half field. To the Seville did not last him at all the balloon during the first minutes, and the first approximation of the party arrived by part of the Barça, with a combination between Neymar and Messi to the edge of the area that unfortunately did not fluctuate because of the attention of Mariano to cut the pass. Both teams had gone out enchufados, and in the edict of the Seville the midfield players Iborra and Banega tried to look for up to Gameiro, but without luck.
Tables in intensity; tables in the marker
In the minute eight Luis Suárez had in his boots the first goal of the party. Andrés Iniesta connected with him in depth with an aerial balloon, but unfortunately his shot of volley left diverted, upsetting this yes to Sergio Rico in the goal of the Seville. Even in the minutes of score the meeting was beautiful, with both teams struggling transparently in each action and the fans in perfect harmony; this yes, the opportunities of goal -to exception of the initial shot of Luis Suárez- shined by his absence during the first chamber of hour, with a lot of game in the centre of the field and the Barcelona trying grease, in search that Messi, Neymar and Suárez began to find in the flank of attack. In the minute 17, in any case, the one who generated danger was the Seville, with a double occasion that needed of a good intervention of Ter Stegen to divert the danger. The duel was agrounded during the first minutes, although it was not by fault of intensity, neither much less.
In the minute 22, went Sergio Rico the one who had to take part after a launching of corner of Leo Messi, that clearly looked for the olympic goal to go back to surprise to the world. However, again it was an isolated occasion. The Seville was drowning to the FC Barcelona in the pressure, trastabillaba the offensive game of the "MSN" and took advantage of the fault of depth and slowness in the combinations of the ones of Luis Enrique to anticipate to each movement, steal balloons and look for fast exits to the counterattack, although the Barcelona defence was very attentive to the hour of torpedearlas. Jordi Alba did not show his best version during the first minutes when losing some that another balloon, whereas the location of the spherical kept arrived to the half hour of game more in the field of the Barça that in the one of the Seville. Neymar Jr And Leo Messi, always had to two defenders on when they received, and the desmarques of Luis Suárez neither surtían effect in this first third of party.
Of the Big Hill desequilibra the scales in favour of the Seville
The fans of the FC Barcelona encouraged to the culés and immediately arrived the reply of the one of the Seville, transmitting the same feeling of equality that on the green. The Barcelona followed moving the ball sideways to side looking for hollow, and found some launchings of corner of which could not take out party. In the minute 30, precisely after a corner culé, Dani Alves tested fortune with a dry shot from out of the area, that left slightly diverted washing the right stick of the goal of Sergio Rico. Some minutes afterwards, the referee Of the Big Hill ate a clear yellow card to Adil Rami, that cut a counterattack of Neymar Jr with the hand and afterwards did case omiso of the protests of the Brazilian. Traspasada The half hour of game the meeting opened slightly and the two teams approximated more to the contrary area, but without concretising and showing too imprecise in the last pass.
In the minute 37 of party, lamentably, a controversial decision of the referee Of the Big Hill broke the final of Glass of Rey. And it is that, in a confined of Kevin Gameiro to the counterattack, Javier Mascherano demolished him and, when being the last man, received a direct red card, leaving to the Barça with ten and causing serious changes in the diagram of game of the FC Barcelona. The decision of Of the Big Hill was too rigorous when leaving to the ones of Luis Enrique with ten men in the first-half, and taking into account besides that, in spite of being a played dangerous, neither was very clear of goal in favour of the Seville, with Ter Stegen going out to cover spaces. The demolish of Mascherano to Gameiro, besides, neither was violent. Anyway, the FC Barcelona did not go to rack and ruin and followed competing with heart and head. In the minute 44, in fact, Gerard Hammered had of a very clear opportunity in a finish of head after a kickoff of corner. The balloon, however, left brushing the crossbar of the Andalusian goal.
To Of the big Hill forget him the yellow cards
To the beginning of the second half, Luis Enrique decided to move the bench and protecting slightly in defence taking out of the lawn to Ivan Rakitic and doing go in in the terrain of game to Jeremy Mathieu. The Asturian decided to keep of this way to Messi, Neymar and Suárez on the field, but with the loss of a midfield player boosted to split inevitably to the team in two pieces. In case the Barça was not already in sufficient disadvantage, the referee Of the Big Hill pitó in the minute 46 an offside non-existent to Neymar Jr, when the Brazilian already was encarando to Sergio Rico to annotate the first so much of the party. The FC Barcelona did not protest too much the action and limited to play and leave the skin. The papers changed, and now was the Seville the one who had more the possession of the balloon, with the Barça replegado backwards and trying go out to the counterattack looking for the speed and quality of Messi, Neymar and Luis Suárez, more enchufados mentally after the expulsion of Mascherano.
In the minute 50, nevertheless, remained clear that the Barça was not crossing a good moment. A shot from out of the area of Banega, that touched in Gerard Hammered, finish stamping in the right stick of Ter Stegen, desatando the onomatopoeias of the public of Vicente Calderón. The Seville dominated and tried to hurt by the bands with Vitolo and Gameiro, very incisive. To Of the Big Hill seemed that they had exhausted him the cards after the red to Mascherano, and in spite of that Vitolo cut with fault a clear counterattack of Messi, the Madrilenian referee opted by not to throw the hand to the pocket and limit to signal the fault, for exasperate of the players culés. Few minutes afterwards, Messi received an involuntary head butt of Carriço inside the area of the Seville and the referee marked fault of the Argentinian star, although it had to go out of the field to go back to go in, when being half "grogui". So only a minute afterwards, arrived a new abysmal news for the Barça.
Luis Suárez lesiona, but the Barça holds
And it is that Luis Suárez threw on the lawn, hurting of a grave muscular injury that surely will prevent him be in the Glass America with Uruguay. The charrúa left limping visibly and, already in the bench, broke to cry desconsoladamente. Rafinha Alcántara went in in his place, having put all against for the Barcelona interests, although the Seville neither achieved to improve in the offensive plane. A lot of equality, and Neymar and Messi that, increasingly angered, began to have with the step of the minutes more and more leadership. The Barça had grown with the balloon when having with Rafinha Alcántara more freshness in the centre of the field, but the Seville replegaba well and Leo Messi and Neymar Jr were too alone to the hour to try generate danger. The Seville tightened the nuts and, in the minute 64, a shot of Krychowiak was repelled by Sergio Busquets to corner. The played finished in at all, and later the group hispalense went on doing faults and more lacking.
Neither by reiteration took out Of the Big Hill some yellow cardboard to the players of the Seville, in what it was turning into a noteworthy referee's shame. The Andalusians, conscious of this, forgot of the balloon and placaban to the culés in each intentona of counterattack. The first yellow card arrived for Adil Rami in the minute 72, and the second for Vitolo in the 75', the two more than deserved. In the minute 77, Leo Messi had of a shot of dangerous fault to the edge of the area, but the shot was too centred and after surpassing the barrier was collected by Sergio Rico. The party banished and, in spite of that the Seville had it everything in favour, the reality is that the 0-0 kept in the marker and the team of Luis Enrique followed being with conditions still to win the Glass of Rey.
Banega, expelled deservedly by entrance to Neymar
Unai Emery removed to the side Mariano and planted to an extreme, Konoplyanka, with the aim to besiege to the Barça during the last minutes, but the pride culé avoided it. The FC Barcelona, with ten men, cancelled to a Seville that was not able to bend the spirit and the will of the culés. Andrés Iniesta, Busquets and Gerard Hammered were being the best of the FC Barcelona, to the time that the fans culé expected a miracle of Messi and Neymar and Of the Big Hill continued to his, giving extraneous shame and doing a lean favour to the football. The arbitration was really shameful, although true is that an image costs more than one thousand words, and along the meeting had many.
Flagrant faults, cards deserved no showed and, in occasions, neither so at least signalled like fault. In spite of everything, paradoxes of the life, finish showing a red very clear to Éver Banega by the same reason that to Mascherano: demolish on the contrary being the last man. After a magistral pass of Iniesta, Neymar was demolished and the FC Barcelona had one of the last occasions of the party. The shot of fault of Leo Messi, that went to slow camera and too centred, poisoned and caused that Sergio Rico conceded the corner. The fans of the Seville was very quiet in these final moments, conscious that the Barça was eating with potatoes to the Seville in the time added, more by pride and will that by quality. At the end, tie at the end of the party and extention with ten against ten.
EXTENTION
In the extention, and after a pineapple of the players of the FC Barcelona to which added Luis Suárez that it could not neither walk, the culés went out something more enchufados in attack but the strengths kept equalised on the lawn, at least during the first minutes. Because, in the minute 96, Jordi Alba gave a joy descomunal to the Barça. A pass measured and milimétrico of Leo Messi, in depth to Jordi Alba, allowed that the Catalan side could finished of volley at the end of the goal of Sergio Rico, advancing to the culés in the final and desatando the euphoria of all the Barcelona fans. The goal of Alba sank to the Seville, died physically and limited only to brake with faults and hard entrances the siege of confined of Messi and company. This time, fortunately, Of the Big Hill himself showed the corresponding yellow cards.
After some dangerous shots of Messi, Gerard Hammered finished of head a centre and Sergio Rico diverted the ball to corner, with a grandísima unemployed that avoided that the FC Barcelona finish to sentence the final of Glass of Rey. It finished the first-half of the extention, and the culés changed of field happier that never. In the second, the FC Barcelona followed dominating, but already without so many anxieties to leave up to look for the second and more oriented to protect backwards. The party, surprisingly, stopped in the minute 110 by an injury... Of the referee! Of the Big Hill had to receive massages in the band by one overloads, but finally could continue. After the resumption, the Barça followed looking for the counterattack and receiving faults of the Seville. Sergio Rico signed a spectacular performance, and detained a finish aerial of Messi point-blank. But the denouement of the party still would be more épico for the Barça, because the justice futbolística won. Neymar Jr Marked the second goal of the party in the minute 122. The FC Barcelona conquered a Glass of the hardest King of the expected and a "historical" doublet. Happinesses, champions!
