Calendar of FC Barcelona

After the good feelings generated as a result of the first goal, work of Pedri, the FC Barcelona was growing at stake and opportunities in Saint Mamés during the first-half, dominating to pleasure with the step of the minutes and putting to the Athletic Club in serious aprietos. Unai Simón had to take part in several occasions in front of shots of Griezmann and Dembélé, but at all could do to avoid the goal of Leo Messi.

Happened the half hour of game, the Argentinian initiated a played of attack that the goalkeeper of the Athletic read badly, going out too much of his goal and leaving it half unprotected. It did not expect , as almost anybody, the pass of Pedri González to backwards, without looking neither turn, sabedor that the '10' arrived just in time to push the balloon at the end of the meshes with one of his traditional passes to the network.

It was the minute 38 of party when Leo Messi, of this form, annotated his eleventh goal in what it goes of season and the eighth in LaLiga Santander 2020-21, approaching little by little to the leadership of the 'Pichichi' in spite of being this his worst campaign goleadora from does more than a decade. Further of the goals of 'The Flea', what truly is striking is the big synergy that is purchasing with one of the recently arrived, Pedri González.

The beautiful society that are forming the Canarian and the Argentinian seems not having ceiling, and is a reason no only of optimism for the possibility to conquer titles, but it also gives hopes so that Leo Messi, more to taste on the terrains of game, finish remaining in the Barcelona staff once finalise the present campaign 2020-21.

The case is that both went back to be the most stood out players of the party in Saint Mamés, carrying the weight of the offensive game of the Barça during the ninety minutes and shining with the balloon in the feet. They looked for , they found , they combined to mark and, in passing, to give to the viewer played of big beauty. They understand very well, of this there is not doubt.

The best attack, but a defence very mejorable

As neither there is it that the Barça, in spite of his gone and come in this League and to have showed irregular to the utmost, possesses the best attack of the competition and one of the best of Europe. Proof of this are his 33 goals in the championship, more than any another team. It has suffered injuries up (at present are was Ansu Fati and Coutinho), but has so many options for desequilibrar, mark and generate options of goal that Koeman can be calm in this appearance. Where will do lacking to follow improving, this yes, is backwards.
