Sergio Busquets went once again title and captain of the FC Barcelona. The Barcelona pivote had a correct party in the triumph of the FC Barcelona in front of the Athletic in the Metropolitan (0-1) and after ensuring the 3 points took the time to value the performance of the team and what meant to take advantage of the defeat of the Real Madrid the Saturday in front of the Villarreal.

The champion of the Champions in 2011 and 2015 also stood out the good defensive work of the team and the forcefulness that this time yes that had in the two areas. "We knew that it was a difficult field, but have advanced us in the marker and Pedri has had the opportunity to put the 0-2 in the marker.

It could have been better

The mediocampista Catalan did not hide and did self-criticism on the offensive work of the team. "It had liked us be more conclusive and have more opportunities, but they, to the margin of which takes out low sticks Araujo, hardly have had occasions. Himself A lot of centres, but few occasions", signalled Busquets. The reality of the party is that except the first half hour of game, the Barça happened more time trying defend and looking for spaces to go out of the pressure that creating opportunities of goal.
