Command, reaction, goal, resources and pass to the eighth of final of the Europe League. The FC Barcelona is liking and converting the good feelings in positive results. Against the Naples has been like this and the good news arrive increasingly followed, with an increasingly offensive team and with a lot of hit. The Barcelona shook after the tie in the crash of gone and signed a night of ten.

In the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona the blaugrana have showed that, although it is true that they can carry out played very very built, also can launch to the contragolpe to kill to the rival. Precisely like this it arrived the first so much: Aubameyang recovered in the area of Ter Stegen, went like a bullet and yielded to an Adama Traoré that went in career to leave on the way to all his rivals and expect the arrival of Jordi Alba, quein defined in the hand manually in the short stick.

The Barça did not put backwards and, instead, went out in research of the second so much, that arrived five minutes afterwards in a genialidad of Frenkie of Jong, that found space to run and left him shoot from the frontal.

The occasions arrived followed, but without 'luck' in the last strike. Sergiño Dest Tested with a latigazo, from half distance, that left hit to the stick, crusader and raso. Aubameyang Also tried with a quite dangerous shot from the frontal, shortly after the 'blunder' of the night, starred by Marc-André ter Stegen that measured very bad and committed fault to Osimehn inside the area. Lorenzo Insigne did not forgive from the eleven metres in front of the statue of the German.

The good news is that the Barça did not lose in any moment the face to the party. 'Auba' Went back to try after a pass of Busquets to the that the gabonés put too thread, looking for the first stick. Ferran Torres also tested with a shot, but 'in extremis' touched Mario Rui to divert it to the corner, where the picture culé went back to test with a head butt of Aubameyang entirely only in the second stick.

Festival culé in Naples

The reaction -and tranquility- did not arrive until instants before the rest, after a shot of corner. The Naples achieved to refuse, but hunted Pedri to open to Ferran, the one who finished yielding to Alba to send a centre backwards. Gerard Hammered appeared like a bullet to control with the right and take out a volley descomunal with the left for colar the balloon hit to the long stick.

The Barcelona, even after the resumption of the party, dominated all the clash and tested more to the goal. The Naples did not put opposition, all the contrary. The speed and verticality of the Barça was being key to surpass all the lines of pressure and Adama Traoré was being a clear leading. In the 54', his centre from background line poisoned after touching in a local defender. Meret Had to take part to avoid the goleada, but did not hold six minutes afterwards.

The ex of the Wolverhampton sent a centre raso that left to happen Frenkie of Jong. It appeared Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to strike, almost at first, to the square to put the 1-4. The gabonés had a new clear occasion, but was him very long the control when it planted only in front of Meret. The Napoli tried to react with an Insigne that coló easy to the area to beat to Ter Stegen, but was advanced and the goal did not go up to the marker.

Discount of the Napoli and to eighth!

The Barcelona went down the intensity and Xavi Hernández decided to move the bench to give rest to the headlines. The Barça did not want surprises, but neither was proposing and the Naples, also with a 'bathroom' of changes, merodeaba the area of an unsure Ter Stegen to the exit.
