The FC Barcelona continues reflecting his list of players that yes take advantage of each opportunity that receive and others that, instead, continue without convincing and turn into a problem for the field for the picture blaugrana. In the victory 'in extremis' of the culés in front of the Cornellá, in the dieciseisavos of final of the Glass of Rey, saw the big difference between a footballer that yes wants to try achieve minutes, Konrad de la Fuente, and another to the that, to this point, already neither looks for him : Francisco Trincao.
The greens were not an easy team to win and knew from a lot before the visit of the Barça to the Nou municipal of Cornellà, by what Ronald Koeman opted for jumping to the field with the majority of the available players of the first staff. They had ones, like Trincao, that had the responsibility to answer to the expectations to his alrededor and convince to the trainer that they deserved more minutes like headlines. The Portuguese, once again, did not take advantage of it.
The ex of the Sporting Knickers went back to the eleven initial after more than a month without being headline (the last time went in front of the Juventus, on 8 December) and left a sinfín of doubts to his step. It played 76 minutes and little danger created in the rival area. The only stood out of his participation was a played tested, during the first part, that empaló with tarpaulin and detained, by little, Ramón Juan. Besides that, little more it did and it went back to show that it is to years light of his best version, reason by which the Barça him fichó.
It fits to remember that Trincao arrived to the Camp Nou to revolutionise the right band, but does not finish to convince although it has added several opportunities. Up to now, it has not achieved to première like goleador and only has contributed a pass of goal. Ronald Koeman has interpreted it like a revulsivo and has not finished of cuajar in the approach of the Dutch trainer, turning into one of the disappointments for the barcelonismo in the first-half of season.
Konrad himself took advantage of the minutes
The North American forward of the Barça B ingresó to the field in the minute 101, in the extention, to replace to Antoine Griezmann and had a very clear opportunity to increase the advantage in the marker, after the goal of Ousmane Dembélé. Konrad shot to the area defended by Ramón Juan with power, but the guardameta took out very well the hand and sent the spherical to the corner.
It was able to generate more danger that Trincao or 'The Principito' in hardly 19 minutes inside the field. It was desequilibrante, incomodó to the defence of the Cornellá and generated danger constantly, something that was missing him to the headlines.
