The FC Barcelona completed, 'in extremis' and with too much suffering, his first traced back in this 2024. The blaugrana were of less to more against The Palms in a party that finish with Ílkay Gündogan like hero

Party of less to more than a FC Barcelona that goes with a suffered victory 'in extremis' in Big Canarian. The Barcelona reacted in the second part to avoid that the 'disaster' was greater, after the errors committed the first 45 minutes, and like this avoid that the leadership remain even more far. The exblaugrana Sandro and Munir manufactured the goal that opened the marker and Ferran Torres was the attendant to sign the tables, whereas Ílkay Gündogan commissioned to put the advantage, in the discount, in the night that Vitor Roque debuted like culé.

What has remained clear, in any case, is that the Barcelona have credited to the suffering in this League and will have to step forward to try litigate by a leadership of the that 'grasp' Real Madrid and Girona. Still it is very far and the Catalans have to find the formula to give turn to the mini crisis that has implanted . In Big Canarian were of less to more and is a stage that is repeating more than the account. The two halves were split 'different', especially by what left to offer the Barça in the first part and the change of 'chip' in the second. The difference, even without being optimum, is overwhelming.

The shadows of the Barça in the first part

The Barça signed a first part tétrica and with more shadows that lights. And that invited to the worry because, in spite of that Xavi Hernández had bet by his XI more logical -with the novelty of Joao Félix in the bench-, the culés were not comfortable and were a lot of the problems to surpass the defensive line of a Canarian group very orderly and that, besides, replegaba too fast. They were few the hopes in the offensive section, because they were not associating properly, but the history was still worse in the area of Iñaki Crag.

And it is that one of the big problems of the Barcelona group was the big passivity without balloon and the few solutions that offered for 'brake' to the rival. To this, it is necessary to add him the inopportune injury of a Joao Cancel that it suffered an annoyance in the first minutes and that did not hold more than 10' in the lawn. The uncertainty caused that the ones of García Pepper 'tested' luck and, to the first, punished to a Barça extremely asleep. And that pays expensive his errors. The 'worse' of the case is that the 1-0 arrived with the combination of two exazulgrana: Sandro and Munir. The Canarian found enabled to his mate, in the point penalti, so that between Iñaki and Araújo 'left' that the Hispanic-Moroccan finished almost to pleasure.

The opening of the marker did not wake up to the Catalans and yes 'pushed' to the local group, that had two very clear occasions to increase the difference: Iñaki dressed of hero after Moleiro found to Sandro in the area so that it commanded a finish, forced, to the first stick that finish repelling the guardameta Alicante. The ex of the Barça went back to appear minutes afterwards to finalise a double occasion. First it was the goalkeeper culé that cleared a shot of Javi Muñoz and, in the refuse, Sandro commanded a shot that crashed in the stick.

The Barça was not comfortable. The extremes were without 'gunpowder', in spite of the efforts of Ferran Torres, whereas Lewandowski was in his dynamics of the last parties. The little 'push' of the blaugrana moves him away much more of the area and, in fact, in the first lost more balloons (8) of which won (6). This yes, had his opportunity of 'gold' to the half hour with a pass to the space of Frenkie of Jong to Sergi Roberto that, instead of looking for a finish above Valleys, tried to yield the balloon to Ferran Torres. It appeared another ex culé, Mika Marble, to clear to time and leave to the visitors without any finish in the first-half.

The possible 'scolding' and change of script of the Barça

In the resumption, the intention of the ones of Xavi Hernández was to move the fastest balloon and desmarcarse to arrive faster to the area, but without a lot of precision or 'strength' to concern to Álex Vallés. Balde desaprovechó A pass to the space of Araújo that him 'hunted' in the area and Raphinha commanded a finish above the arch. The guardameta local alone 'appeared' to cover a finish of the own Brazilian, but was advanced. The Barça had achieved, with suffering and to dropper, that The Palms was in his field and with fewer options to go out in driving.

It was in this moment or never. And the culés, to avoid more hits, took advantage of. In one of the played more 'rare' of the clash, after a balonazo that touched Lewandowski, the balloon remained died in the frontal. Sergi Roberto did with the spherical, filtered a pass to Ferran Torres and, with a very adjusted shot, surpassed to Valleys in spite of his pulled. The goal lit the spirits in the Canarian Big stadium and opened a stage of gone and turn in which the Barcelona showed more impetus. It was another party in which the visitors recovered and moved the spherical with a lot of more speed.

The blaugrana played to the 'wear out' of The Palms, that could not 'smell' the balloon and found with serious problems to happen of the half of the field, surpassed the hour of party, and in which the Barça found comfortable, but without generating occasions extremely clear. It tested Of Jong with a finish of volley from the frontal, bitten, easy for the put local. The command and control, that had avoided that the ones of García Pepper finished in the second half, did not translate in goals. And this is always a danger, because Marmol had an opportunity for the 2-1 to the exit of a corner.

Debut of Vitor Roque with the Barça and frantic minutes in Big Canarian

For the last twenty minutes of the party, Xavi 'touched' his forward. First it gave gone in to Lamine Yamal and Joao Félix, minutes before it produced the debut of Vitor Roque like Barcelona. It went in in the 77' to replace to Ferran Torres and dress of the '9' that so much needs the Barça. It was about to to dress like the smartest of the class to ten minutes for the end (3' after ingresar to the field) after a bad cession backwards of The Palms that was about to to hunt the Brazilian. It brushed it, but it advanced Valleys.
