The FC Barcelona has not been able to happen of the tie in the visit of the Girona to the Camp Nou. The mistake and the lack of spark in the final meters have punished a blaugrana team that, despite the setback, has been able to increase its advantage over Real Madrid

It is one very good news that, even in the parties that complicate and in which the team does not feel especially hit, the FC Barcelona can feel calm in the highest of the classification. The advantage that have achieved in these months causes that a desliz or trip no pass invoices. This, in the section of the table, but to level futbolístico has been a suspense.

Conditioned by the wear or the result of the Classical of the past Wednesday, the barcelonistas lived a quite uncomfortable night in the Camp Nou in which the desacierto and the fault of spark were the main ingredients of the team. Merit, also, of a Girona that planted a very serious party and that did 'work' more than the account to the culés, with a Gazzaniga providencial and a defensive line more than serious.

This yes, went many the mini histories of a derbi Catalan that initiated with novelties from the bench: Xavi Hernández, knowingly of the importance that had the crash, bet by an eleven very offensive with three forwards and with the titularities of Sergi Roberto and Eric García. The culés had a lot of difficulties, at least of start, to feel really comfortable with the balloon in front of a Girona that, although had his opportunities, lived long in own field.

Further of a surprising beginning with two occasions in less than a minute, the visitors saw a 'parade' of opportunities wasted by a Barça that was especially desacertado in the last metres and that cost him more than the account attack in short distances in front of the pressure of the 'gironins'. It was the point that caused a step backwards of the team, although had a few occasions to advance in the first time.

The Barça, with more 'win' that football

By insistence the barcelonistas could go out rewarded soon, almost with 'fortune' by a bad pass of Santi Good to Gazzaniga that took out 'in extremis' or a head butt of Ronald Araújo that seemed colarse in the goal but that the guardameta Argentinian took out in the line of goal. Raphinha Also had chances, but was very imprecise and, especially, predictable by his band. If it was not surpassed by his pair, defined without 'spark' to try break the arch.

The clearest of the first-half arrived, precisely, through the Brazilian after a big pass of Ansu Fati diagonal that took advantage of to control in the area, stick it and topándose in front of a Gazzaniga that seemed an authentic wall under the three sticks. This, until the rest. To the exit of the changing rooms, with the change of position of Gavi to the left interior, the Barça saw more 'put' in the party, but with the same desacierto of face to the goal. And it go that they tried it.

Eric García was the first with a head butt by on the crossbar and, afterwards, Jules Koundé stuck of volley to command it directly went. In front of the doubt of the blaugrana, the Girona showed his braver version and forgave him the life to the venues: Taty Spanish encaró to Ter Stegen and, with all the time of the world to nail it he in goal or yield it to a mate, defined with the interior to the long stick... Of the worst possible way, to command it was and give him an extra life to the ones of Xavi.

A Barça without a lot of spark

Victims of the wear, of the bajón emotional after the Classical or simply by the 'engorroso' of the party, the picture barcelonista was very far to offer a conclusive version that went able of despistar to the picture of the 'gironins', that achieved to contest of you to you during a long stretch of the clash and did not hide , in any moment, as it already had happened in the party of the first turn.

The Barcelona, of some way, felt quite baffled and went the entry of Jordi Alba, to play practically like left-handed extreme, what gave a bit of light to the attack of the Barça. In fact, to fault of ten minutes for the end a centre raso his, going in by the left, was the one who left to Lewandowski in mouth of goal: The ball surpassed to the Argentinian goalkeeper, but no to David López that cleared 'in extremis' to avoid the 1-0.
