A messy Barça lose to Arsenal in their debut on the US tour (5-3)

The première of the new T-shirt of the FC Barcelona has not been the expected. The ones of Xavi Hernández have fallen in his première in North American territory in front of the Arsenal of Mikel Arteta (5-3), where the fault of rhythm was more than notorious for the culés. Two of the new signings were present on the terrain of game and left several feelings in his first minutes.

So much Ilkay Gündogan like Oriol Romeu were protagonists in the medullary but went the canterano the one who noticed a bit desubicado inside the diagram of the technician. By the right band did act of presence Sergiño Dest and 'Ez' Abde was from the start like one of the referents in the offensive plot of the team.

'Taking and daca' in the first-half

The first minutes of the meeting were of the side of the Barcelona and so alone 7' minutes sufficed so that a good played of the Moroccan translated in goal. The attacker desbordó from own field until the rival area and crossed a balloon that Robert Lewandowski sent at the end of the network after a first finish of Raphinha. However, the 'gunners' have greater shooting in the pre-season and left it clear along the commitment.

The ones of Arteta did with the control of the party and to the 13' was Bukayo Saka the one who equalised the actions taking advantage of an error of Andreas Christensen deep down. In fact, the own forward had the 2-1 in his booties but malogró a shot penalti ten minutes afterwards after a clear hand of Ronald Araújo. The spaces deep down blaugrana have been notorious and has been the own Uruguayan the one who has taken out breast in more than an occasion to bend to a Dest that follows having lacks by band.

The party was more 'hot' of the expected with multiple infringements and yellow cards, although it left an inducement that did not see in the Barça from the course of Leo Messi: a goal of direct fault. It was Raphinha the one who commissioned to finish to the 34' from long distance with the luck that it diverted in Martin Odegaard. Although the meeting was for any one, went the Arsenal the one who achieved the equality before the rest with a good projection of Saka and a finish back of Kai Havertz.

The Arsenal was very upper in the complement

The míster Catalan did a total of eleven changes for the second half and so much Alejandro Balde like Fermín López ingresaron to the lawn of the SoFi Stadium. The defender left good feelings after his injury of ankle, whereas the player of the filial follows impressing with his big quality. Nevertheless, only ten minutes sufficed so that Leandro Trossard put up in the tables to the English after Jules Koundé did not close well the spaces.

The runners-up of the Premier followed showing that they are for big things and that his shooting has allowed them paginate of a better way. His command has been notorious and Trossard saw again door (4-2), followed of a good combination between Ousmane Dembélé and Ferran Torres that approached to the Barcelona with a shot crossed of the Valencian (4-3). Fabio Scallop finished to put the estaca to the 89' with an authentic golazo from out of the area to close one more than deserved victory of the Arsenal in his third party of turns it (5-3).
