FC Barcelona lived a 'moved' game in Villarreal with a goal party. Xavi Hernández's men, who suffered more than necessary, knew how to overcome the difficulties to take the three points home

It is not being so conclusive, as it expected , the beginning of season of the FC Barcelona. Already in the first two presentations, in front of Getafe and Cádiz, the Barcelona had showed a lot of complications that have reconfirmado in Castellón. The ones of Xavi Hernández have not lived an afternoon plácida, all the contrary, in the middle of an open war in which it lost the one who neglected or made a mistake. In this League, the errors will pay very expensive... But, with insistence, the blaugrana achieved to replace of a 'traced back' to carry the three points home.

It was a party with too many goals and a lot of histories, because the Barça happened to be 0-2 to that they traced him back the party for, finally, go back to put by in front in the electronic. It supposes an afternoon to celebrate the triumph, but also for reflexionar on all the errors that are committing (that they are not few). The culés suffered more than the account and offered his defensive version more 'poor' and with unfit. Proof of this was the goal annotated, to the five minutes, of Sorloth, that did not finish going up to the marker by an offside. It was the warning that it did not go to be a simple party and that Marc-André ter Stegen went to have to appear a lot.

Minutes of madness in The Ceramics

Although they were the 'groguets' those who enjoyed of the best occasions in the initial minutes, the Barça in two zarpazos achieved to put the scales in favour, with the effectiveness that so much had been missing him in his first two parties of League. First it was Lamine Yamal the one who put a big balloon to the second stick for the apparition of Gavi, that commanded a potentísimo head butt taking advantage of of the relajos of the defence so that the balloon nailed in the network defended by Jörgensen. It was a hard hit for the venues, that came being very upper, and that desconectaron of the party to leave the feeling that the culés could kill them very soon.

And it is that, so alone two minutes afterwards, Pedraza erró in his attempt to steal the balloon to Lewandowski and gave the possession to Frenkie of Jong, the one who appeared as '9' to beat to the guardameta local. It seemed that the Barça was shaking the pressure and was the 'same' of always, but the ones of Setién did not give the party by stray and were able to trace back it, inexplicably, taking out to relucir all the lacks that -still- has the Catalan group. Hit after hit so that the ones of Xavi see forced to react.

The final minutes of the first part were an authentic suffering for the Barça, that after seeing by in front in the electronic relaxed more than the account without percatarse that the Villarreal had with what contest them the meeting. The 'history' began with a goal of Juan Foyth, of head, after a corner of Alex Baena with 'help' of the stick. It came preceded of a paradón of Ter Stegen. Shortly after and after a jugadón collective, that finish Gerard Moreno with a big pass filtered to Pedraza, the one who left the balloon so that Sorloth pushed the balloon to the network, the culés saw in an unpublished situation.

Without grantings in the second half

The tie caused that in the resumption the 'yellow submarine' went out much more enchufado and with spirits to complete the epic. They were able to put by in front in the marker after a new unfit defensive of the Barça that left to Pedraza with all freedom to sign a big played and yield the balloon to Baena, that dressed like the smartest of the class to take out a good shot to the long stick and win to Ter Stegen.

By behind in the marker, the blaugrana tried to advance lines and, for the first time in the party, saw more compact desdde the centre of the field. The team was pushing to in front, with occasions of Lamine Yamal that commanded a shot to the stick or one of Lewandowski that detained Jörgesen. They were leaving arguments for empatar the party... And, besides, win it. Ferran Torres, that is signing a big start of course, went the attendant to shake the field so that, in two ráfagas (as in the first part), the culés went back to be by in front.

The '7' was the attendant to manufacture the tie, after collecting a balloon and after several disputes in the area in which it also was Gavi involved, finished commanding the balloon to the deepest of the to network. It left the way cleared so that, a minute afterwards, Lamine Yamal left a jugadón that finish cno a finish that it crashed in the stick. The refuse fell in the boots of Lewandowski, that marked to pleasure to empty goal and put an end to his drought goleadora... And, also, to the party.
