Calendar of FC Barcelona

The margin of error of the FC Barcelona in LaLiga, and in the season, is inesxistente and inside this context received this Wednesday to the CA Osasuna in Lluís Companys by the day 20 of the Spanish championship, a duel that had postponed by the dispute of the Supercopa of Spain does a pair of weeks. The start of party for the Barcelona group, that besides 'debuted' after the announcement of Xavi Hernández that it will not continue after 30 June, surely was a faithful reflection of the season: injury to the 6 minutes of game.

After a balloon in long, Ferran Torres did the already known signal to the Barcelona bench and left fall on the lawn of the Barcelona field. The forward felt an annoyance in the backside of his right thigh and immediately asked the change. Like this it began the party for a Barça that is forced to win each party that have by in front in the next 3 or 4 weeks if you do not want to sack of another title, or at least to have real options to contest it.

The positive side of the exit of the Valencian, if it can have any, has been the very good entry of Fermín López in the left sector of the attack culé. The canterano, premièring this Wednesday his dorsal 16 after receiving index card of the first team, situated like a 'false' left extreme and left very good feelings. In fact, the mediocampista surely was the most dangerous player of the first 30 minutes for the Barça, leaving very good desmarques and being very near to finish a big centre that planted Lamine Yamal from the right band.

Regarding occasions of concrete goal in the first 45 minutes, which finished without goals in the marker, definitely the Barça had the best, although they neither were too many for the level of game that expects of the team of Xavi. Already on the 10 minutes, Lewandowski had a big opportunity of head after a centre of Gündogan, but finally his finish went something diverted of the goal of Aitor Fernández.

After that the most interesting was created by and for Fermín, as we commented, until on the minute 34 arrived a new finish of head culé, in this opportunity of Jules Koundé. The French elevated more and better that the players of Osasuna, although as in the case of Lewandowski could not give good direction to his finish. Shortly after it would arrive an attempt of the team navarro, also in a shot of corner as in the one of 4 minutes before. Budimir Appeared totally only to finish a balloon in the second stick, but fortunately could not hit of full the balloon.

Like this it left the party to the rest, with a finish previous of Fermín on the 43 minutes after a new centre of the team culé, in this opportunity taking advantage of the refuse of the team rojillo. Little football of a Barça that had to Pedri a bit more delayed in the field of what is used to to do it to try build more game and a Lamine that clearly is the most dangerous footballer of the team. Already in the second time the canterano went back to confirm this tendency with a finish when hardly they played a pair of minutes in the seconds 45'.

The problem for Xavi, and as it happened in the first time, is that after some occasion of danger the team went back to go in in a 'pothole' regarding intensity and occasions. In fact, on the 58 minutes arrived some whistles Montjuïc for the Barcelona players. Almost immediately it arrived the entry of Vitor Roque to the party, the one who ingresó in place of Fermín that followed trying generate space, but could not convince to the míster so that it thought in a distinct modification.

As it happened in the first time, the footballer that ingresó to the field converted quickly in the best of the team regarding occasions of danger, but now went even more. The Brazilian touched his first balloon of the party, little more than a minute after his entry, and was sufficient to celebrate his first goal like player of the Barça. Head butt of the '9' to the 64' after a big centre of Cancel, in a played in which Lamine Yamal initiated with a big driving and capacity of decision not to think only in the goal and continue opening the balloon, until finally it arrived to the left band for the Portuguese.

Immediate impact of a Roque that besides did not conform with this and a pair of minutes afterwards would force the double yellow of Unai García so that the Barça remained with a player more, in addition to starring a possible penalti in which the VAR decided not calling to review to the referee of the party, for surprise of very few. The impact in this decision saw shortly after when to the 75' the team navarro was very near to plant the 1-1.

Raul García received a pass filtered and finished crusader, brushing the long stick of Iñaki Crag, in a played that to having finish in goal surely would have had to go to review by a clear fault on Vitor Roque when the Brazilian tried to receive a balloon of backs near of the midfield. After that arrived a finish of Moncayola, a pair of minutes afterwards, but Iñaki answered with his right hand of way very firm.

Like this the party arrived to his last 10 statutory minutes and with a 2-0 of the Barça that finish not going up to the marker after a big pass of Roque to Lewandowski, but the Pole was clearly offside. The Barcelona team from that played tried to sentence the party, but neither Lewy, neither Vitor Roque, neither Lamine or Cancel could find again goal and like this the culés finish adding three very important points, but without sobrarle too much.
