The historical negative record reached for Barça after his victory in Copa

The days, the weeks and the months have happened for the FC Barcelona this season and the best version of the team seems not being able to be found. This defensive solidity of the past season with which the club conquered LaLiga and the Supercopa seems lost right now, especially after fitting two goals in front of a team of Fourth Division in the Glass of Rey.

In fact, the 2-3 in front of the Barbastro has meant the meeting number 20 of consecutive way in which the Barça is not able to win a party by more than a goal, a statistics that reaches for the first time in his 125 years of history. At least like this it has ensured it @MisterChip in his account of X (Twitter), one of the specialists in statistics of the Spanish football more important of the last years.

UDB 2-3 FCB (FT) - Neither against a team of fourth category could put end to a historical series: the Barcelona has linked 20 (TWENTY!!!) Consecutive official parties without winning by more than a goal of margin for the first time in his 125 years of history.

The defence and the attack, in problems almost by equal

This affirmation can carry quickly to many in thinking in the defensive work of the team, something that already mention to the start with the contrast that exists between the past season and the current, but the reality is that the problem goes a bit further. The negative record that this Barça has reached does not speak only of goals fit or problems so that the team can win parties by his desaciertos defensive, but also the problems to be conclusive in attack.

The best sample is precisely the duel of this Sunday in front of the Barbastro, a team of Second RFEF that in the first time could leave to the changing room with 3 or 4 goals against and only did it with one. From there it splits the problem for the team of Xavi Hernández, the one who like trainer has not known to find a new formula that allow to the team be reliable in the two areas, or at least in one of them.

Xavi needs to show his capacity of adaptation

The 'unocerismo' of the past course was the perfect sample that if it is not fine in the rival area also can win a title if in the own works of good way, but right now the team culé is not able to leave his goal to zero, by what needs a lethal attack, able to mark 4 or 5 goals in a party if has the occasions for this. However, the míster Catalan has tried with several tridents, with three or four forwards, with or without Lewandowski and for now does not achieve to improve a facet that seems more likely to consolidate that the defensive, right now without an order like the one of the 22/23.
