What can rescue the Barcelona of the last Classical

A lot of factors can decide a party in particular. In the case of the Classical that the culés and the merengues contested this Saturday the Barça had a greater possession of the balloon, but won the Madrid for having been more conclusive in each played that attained to make.

The defeat hurts because it finished with shot of Ilaix in the last instant that could be the goal of the tie but that finished diverted by a stick. It is true that this is a cruel denouement, but that launches an optimistic message in key of future of the Barcelona. In this Barça of transition has a good future by in front, the first and only so much marked it Mingueza and found in Ilaix a fierce mate in the cesped. The youngster showed to be somebody of the house, able to connect with the barcelonismo, that in spite of any reverse that suffer, follows with life and improving.

NOr there is doubt that the defeat is a hit to the aspirations of the Barça to win LaLiga this season, that saw like the Madrid went to sleep being the leader, waiting for seeing what occurs today with the Athletic. However, this is the confirmation that to this team is missing him a point to win the big parties, can be small details, but that, in front of teams of the calibrate of the Madrid, can do the difference between the victory and the defeat

The result in question also launches something of uncertainty on the 3-5-2 that had gone back recurrent for Koeman. Curiously, the Barça began to give more battle with a system that had given him more defensive reliability and grew in the second part afterwards that Koeman changed to 4-3-3.

The balloon is of the Barça

I dress it the first-half of the party confirmed the prognoses: with Of Jong in the centre, the Barça had the balloon and attacked, but contratacaban the whites, jointed lines and demanded to the Barça a precision in the last metres to which neither Messi neither Dembélé covered.

The led by Zidane, then, took advantage of the errors that have condemned to the ones of Koeman in the big parties of this season: The fault of forcefulness in the two areas, the individual errors in defence and the little effectiveness up. It can not overlook that the Barça also had occasions to attain a distinct result in the second time.

Backwards, Araujo and Mingueza lived a bathroom of reality with Benzema and Vinicius in the first 45 minutes. At the same time, Dembélé diluted up with a performance tétrica. It found in the worst possible stage, receiving balloons to his back and without space to manoeuvre.

And Messi?

The Barça neither arrived to have of the best version of Messi in the most delicate moments of the party. To the rosarino the rain left it tiritando of cold, until asking the change of T-shirt. An unpublished image of the Argentinian, of those that remember with the step of the years. One more than a big party played in small format. Without public and without the vertigo of the Bernabéu. "The one who was better mentally will have more options to win the party", aimed Koeman in recent days.

The arbitration

The Classical are not exentos of controversy and this was not the exception, Neither was missing the controversy with some debatable actions that satisfied the patience of Koeman. The Dutch reported a possible penalti to Braithwaite and did it with an unknown tone for him with the voice heaved and indignant.

To the Dutch does not like him lose and showed very categorical with the influence of the referee in the result. "It is penalti. It is very clear. And there is not VAR. I do not know why there is VAR in Spain. Once again we have to accept it and callarlo", affirmed in front of the once finished press the party. Besides, it was not the only. It hammer, the one who did not have minutes, accompanied it in his reglamos. Anybody doubts that LaLiga puts more difficult for the colchoneros, the merengues and the culés, but with the rebeldía of youngsters like Ilaix and Mingueza the Barça looks the future with another face.
