The FC Barcelona is still in way imparable and, although it left the feeling of atascarse by moments, has achieved an important victory against the Getafe that allows him keep on being the only leader of LaLiga, with differences. The Spotify Camp Nou lives of party thanks to a Barcelona group that, although it was not very hit, knew how find the way to the goal.
Xavi Hernández took out to his best 'warriors' to the terrain of game, with the novelties of Sergi Roberto by the right-handed band or the return of Ansu Fati to the titularity. The bet did not fail him, but in front had to a Getafe that, with his line of five very firm defenders, left very few options to the Barcelona to generate danger and win to a very serious David Soria.
The party started, sorpresivamente, with a goal cancelled to Borja Mayoral by offside. Shortly after, the Barça began to dominate and insist the game by the bands for 'trick' to the rival defence, but further of two shots, of Ousmane Dembélé and Gavi, from out of the area that taponó the guardameta 'azulón', the clearest occasion converted it Pedri to open the marker in the 35'.
Andreas Christensen recovered a balloon and touched to left band for the arrival of a Raphinha that did not doubt in centring to the area, where went to arrive Pedri González very forced, but pulled the leg for enchufarla and nail it in the deepest of the network and like this 'justify' the big command of the culés in the terrain of game, although the Getafe answered and almost gets in trouble to the culés.
And it is that, before the rest, the ones of Quique Flores had two very clear opportunities to equalise the marker. First, a loss of Pedri derived in a started of Borja Mayoral that coló entirely only in the area to define in front of Ter Stegen. The ex of the Madrid defined, but the guardameta imposed and cleared. Two minutes afterwards, Carles Aleñá sent a pass of the death for the arrival of Borja, but did not reach to arrive to finish.
Command without prize
In the resumption, further of a centre poisoned of Mayoral that cleared Ter Stegen, the Barça followed the same script and merodeó the area of Soria, with Raphinha like protagonist in the first minutes with a centre from the left that Soria repelled and another sending that took out was Alderete.
The Barça dominated and 'strolled' the balloon of a place to another, but without tarpaulin in the final metres. Dembélé Tried a finish after recovering a loose ball, after a bad control of Ansu Fati, but the shot left to the lateral network of Soria, without more. It was one of the last actions of a Barcelona picture that was not hit to the hour to add to the attack and that noticed especially atascado.
The big advantage for the Barça is that the Getafe was not fine in the definition and was not able to generate sufficient danger although they were more present in the rival area and presionaron much more up. Borja Mayoral, as in the first part, had the clearest opportunity after hunting a centre of Damián that it could not cabecear properly and left very crossed. It was the opportunity to put the 1-1.
The Barça played with fire
Although the Getafe was not doing sufficient merits to finish to equalise the marker, the Barça neither showed firm to sentence the party and finish with the hopes of the Madrilenian. The last 30' were of dominate, but without attacking neither incomodar to Soria further of a hand manually of Ansu Fati in which it was advanced. It was to play with fire... Although fortunately they did not burn and they added three key points in the fight by LaLiga.
