The FC Barcelona has achieved three vital points in the visit of the Real Sociedad, in a party 'rocky' and without a lot of lights in which Lamine Yamal was the only able to mark the difference in the marker

The FC Barcelona has fulfilled with the mission that had against the Real Sociedad and has recovered the second square of LaLiga, thanks to a good goal of Lamine Yamal in the first-half after a contragolpe in which Robert Lewandowski threw of magic. They have been very underneath of the expectations, but the performance of the team has allowed that they carry three points that can be essential.

The Barça is fulfilling the aims 'minimum' in this end of season, without options to carry a title but with the imperial need to classify to the Supercopa of Spain of the season that comes. Everything seems to indicate that the battle with the Girona will keep until the last day and the blaugrana, in any case, are those who split with more obligations. Against the Real Sociedad, in an Estadi Olimpic Lluís Compannys 'decaffeinated', has cost more than the account.

To the Barça cost him find the way to the goal

And it is that the ones of Imanol Bailiff also had a lot at stake, because they want to put in places of Europe League, and did not leave the easy things in spite of offering a version very underneath of which came offering. This yes, knew how close backwards and 'minimise' the effects of players like Lamine Yamal or Robert Lewandowski in the first compasses of the party and cost of a pair of contragolpes for incordiar to the defence of the Barça, especially of Pau Cubarsí, although without 'luck', fortunately, in the last pass.

Becker Was the one who more understood the plan, but without fortune, and planted only in the area in three opportunities: In the first did not cost, because it had committed fault, but forced to Ter Stegen to take out a 'paradón', and in the second won the back to the defence to command a powerful shot and nail it in the deepest of the network, but was in position irreglamentaria. It went back to repeat the same action, but this time him 'removed' the balloon to time. The Barça, although it did not suffer too much, remained evidenciado defensivamente in these approaches.

To the culés cost them more than the account settle and feel comfortable from the possession of the balloon. It was when they increased the rhythm and printed speed when they could mark the difference in the first (and only) opportunity of the first part in which the defence 'txuri-urdin' failed in the mark, in a big played. A contragolpe, with theft of Pedri González, finish with a very good pass of Robert Lewandowski between lines to find to Ílkay Gündogan, more advanced, and that this yielded him the spherical to a Lamine Yamal that it did not doubt to command the balloon to save and advance to his to the edge of the rest.

Strengths equalised in Montjuïc

The goal gave some 'release' to a Barça that began to feel more comfortable in the lawn and that it could face the clash more near of the area of Remiro, but without clear occasions. The guion had continuity in the second half and Raphinha tested luck with a powerful shot that left diverted, slightly. The Real answered with a finish from the frontal of Brais Méndez that repelled Cubarsí throwing to the lawn, although the clearest was of the venues to the 65': The '11' took advantage of a pass of Pedri to command a very planted shot near of the square and the guardameta of Cascante took out a paradón to avoid the 2-0.

The Barcelona saw much more near of the goal, but the Basques also had his chance of gold to try equalise the marker, with Méndez again like protagonist. Recortó To Cubarsí, inside the area, and his finish left grieve crossed. The strengths began to equalise to fault of twenty minutes for the end and both technicians bet for moving his bench. The first that marked the difference was a Take Kubo that, in one of his first approximations, recortó to inside and shot with direction to the arch, but appeared Ter Stegen to contain the balloon. Another that went in enchufado was Ferran Torres, the one who had the goal in his boots grieve ingresar to the field, but Remiro commanded to corner his shot raso and crusader to avoid the goal... But the history did not change, in spite of the occasions.

The Barça fulfils with minima

The Barça has fulfilled in front of the Real Sociedad, but can not remain satisfied with the feelings that have left. To the ones of Xavi Hernández has seen them very underneath of the level that them esparaba. However, they have been able to conserve the three points, keys to recover the second square of LaLiga and that the battle by the ticket to Saudi Arabia, with the Girona, keep until the last day.
