FC Barcelona completed an epic comeback against Celta de Vigo (3-2) in a match where, in 80 minutes, they fairly lost by two goals. The explosion of the Joaos and the sense of smell of Robert Lewandowski saved the three points in ten minutes of madness
Ten minutes sufficed to the FC Barcelona to leave backwards a grey party in front of the Celtic of Vigo (3-2). The Galicians attained two so many of advantage with a big physical deployment, but the Barça appealed to the epic in the final stretch promoted by the magic of the Joaos and the smell goleador of Robert Lewandowski relentless in the area. At the end, I Cancel it was the hero with a golazo in the 90', but Ter Stegen was the true 'MVP' thanks to his unemployed saviours. These were the notes culés in Montjuïc in front of the ones of Rafa Benítez.
Ter Stegen: MVP
Had two interventions milagrosas in the first part that avoided a greater difference of the Celtic to the rest, with paradones to Iago Sails and Larsen. In the complement saved another so much of Bamba, but could not do at all in the played of the two so many Galicians. However, his interventions kept to the Barça with life to go to by the traced back.
Joao Cancel: Crack
It went up continuously to contrary field in the first part, but had problems in the shrinking and left some spaces that the Celtic took advantage of for lastimar. A pair of bad his deliveries propiciaron two clear occasions of the rival, something unusual in a footballer of very good foot. In the complement played like pivote after the exit of Oriol Romeu and, in the final stretch, assisted to Lewandowski so that the Pole marked the 2-2 and completed the traced back with a golazo in the 90'.
Jules Koundé: Disordered
It was the best of the saga in a first part for the forget, covering the gaps that left Cancel in his constant rises and helping to a Christensen to the that cost him wake up. In the second part suffered when planting by left in the improvised line of three that stopped Xavi and finish the party like a forward more, with a Barça dumped in attack.
Andreas Christensen: Absent-minded
It completed a first very toneless part. It went out late in the played of the goal of Larsen, enabling to the Norwegian after a loss in the half. Besides, it was admonished before the rest by a fault on the author of the 0-1. In the second part played like líbero beside Koundé and Araújo until Balde ingresó in his place in the minute 60.
Marcos Alonso: Unobserved
The Madrilenian follows far of his best version and desaprovechó the titularity like some first 45 minutes in which, although it filtered some dangerous balloon to the contrary area, suffered for lidiar with the desbordes of Bamba and Iago Sails. The urgency to go to by the traced back did that Xavi replaced him in the halftime by Lamine Yamal.
Oriol Romeu: Worn
The mediocentro completed a first acceptable part, saving a pair of clear occasions of the Celtic that well could leave the party 0-2. To the equal that Marcos Alonso, was 'sacrificed' in the halftime to reinforce the attack, leaving his place in the field to Ronald Araújo that reappeared after his injury.
Frenkie Of Jong: Lesionado
It suffered a sprain in his right ankle in the 15' when committing an infringement on Bamba. The Dutch did an effort for following, but the annoyance forced him to ask the change 20 minutes later. Gavi ingresó In his place and his injury has bad paints, although it is necessary to expect by the corresponding proofs.
Ílkay Gündogan: Jugón
The German gestó the only played of danger of the Barça in the first part with a pass to Joao Félix that left to the luso alone to define, but his finish left high. Andn the complement, filtered another precise pass to Ferran Torres that the '11' wasted with a finish crusader that left by little.
Joao Félix: Acertivo
It was the one who more tried it by the culés in a first part in which it wasted a very clear occasion. In the 81' invented an assistance of 'crack' to Lewandowski puncturing a balloon to enable to the '9', a played that took out of the Barça of his lethargy and favourable the epic traced back Barcelona.
Ferran Torres: Gafado
It participated very little by the right band in the first part and, the only clear opportunity that had, wasted it with a finish that it brushed the base of the stick. Xavi put to Raphinha in his place to 20 minutes for the end.
Robert Lewandowski: Pichichi
The Pole was isolated during 80 minutes, but the assistances of the Joaos allowed him mark a doublet that confirms his series goleadora and propició the traced back Barcelona. The first, hammering the balloon with subtlety in front of Iván Villar after a big pass punctured of Joao Félix. The second, with a derechazo relentless from the point penalti after a pass backwards of Cancel.
Gavi: Stellar
It replaced to Frenkie of Jong before the rest and did not stop to run all the party. On the end, saw the diagonal of Joao Cancel and put a perfect centre from the left so that the luso marked the 3-2.
Lamine Yamal: Participatory
It was a change sung in the halftime and Xavi did not doubt in throwing hand of the canterano to look for the reaction. Although it was not so acertivo as in other opportunities, propició a pair of desbordes by right and helped to free spaces for the rises of Joao Cancel.
Ronald Araújo: Leader
The Uruguayan reappeared in the second part with a big physical deployment, helping in the mark and in attack when the Barça was a chaos. It filtered a pass to Cancel in the 86' that the luso took advantage of to enable to Lewandowski in the played of the 2-2. Definitely, the 'charrúa' is leader when it is.
Raphinha: Collaborator
It replaced to Ferran in the 72' and his entry helped to the Barça to win depth by right, where the team generated very little during all the party, further of not participating actively in any of the three so many culés.
Alejandro Balde: Auxiliary
Ingresó In the 60' by Christensen to give a hand in defence, since the experiment with Koundé by the left did not go out at all well. It did not have a lot of incidence in attack, but covered several gaps that the Barça left in the final stretch when launching to by the traced back.
