BARÇA MUST DRAW CONCLUSIONS
Forced to correct: The capital 'sins' of Xavi's Barça in Donosti
FC Barcelona's performance against Real Sociedad has been highly criticized and 'forces' the Blaugrana to self-criticize and draw conclusions to avoid consequences in the near future
The staff of the FC Barcelona remained very signalled after the victory, 'in extremis' and with too much suffering, in front of the Real Sociedad. It saw the most passive version, without rhythm and with failures pronounced and constants of the team. However, the "luck of the champion", as it defined it Joan Laporta after the clash, did 'presence' so that Ronald Araújo connected a good centre of Ílkay Gündogan and marked the goal in to last played of the meeting. With epic, sweat and suffering.
The true is that Imanol Bailiff went through on of Xavi Hernández in what to the approach and the decisions refers . It signed a party very completed and kept to his connected by, at least 88 minutes. Had bad luck, but in the blackboard have been upper and have taken out to relucir several main sins in the approach of the trainer egarense that, without place to doubts, it is necessary to correct if it wants to follow litigating by all the titles.
An important cumulus of errors in the Barça
And it is that the poor party of the Barça goes much more there of the 'touched' that were by the defeat in the Classical. It was a fault of connection, concentration and, especially, answers by big stretch of the party. It is not casualidad that have produced three losses of balloons that have caused three clear occasions for the Real Sociedad. They went out to the field in way 'grogui' and, if it had not been by an exceptional performance of Ter Stegen, the history had begun of negative way for the culés before they fulfilled the 3' of crash.
The ones of Xavi did not go out connected, but the situation did not improve neither an apex with the happen of the minutes. They did not know to react in front of the pressure and intensity that printed the local group in each played. In addition to that the Real went out of own field with a lot of ease and freedom, the blaugrana left too many gaps in the medullary that allowed the free traffic of the Basques. They did not go to the 'bump' to win duels and players like Zubimendi, Brais Méndez or Mikel Merino recovered and won a lot of balloons, almost without opposition.
Without offensive alternatives... Until the minute 89!
All the errors that committed of centre of the field for backwards did not compensate with the offensive performance of the team, that again was paupérrimo. Already against the Real Madrid had left very few alternatives to add to the attack and generate clear occasions, but in front of the Real between the fault of balloon (almost of constant way) and the little light that offered the attackers, the offensive of the Barça based in the three shots that produced between the 89 and the 90+1, when Ronald Araújo marked the goal of the victory.
