First half and Barcelona is dominating the game. This is a better performance from Xavi Hernandez men although a poor one for Robert Lewandowski as he got feed several times from cancelo and kounde but he did not make anything out of it.
The special duo of Morata and Greizman has not really clicked today and side a little scare Barcelona defence hasn't been really test today by Atletico Madrid.
Although Atletico Madrid has a better bench than Barcelona and this may turn out to be a problem for Xavi Hernandez, it's best the finish the game off as early as possible before they get some tired legs out there.

Right, Barcelona really dominated the game in the first half. It's a shame that Lewandowski missed a lot of opportunities that he could have made good use of. Lewa had four missed shots, one blocked shot, three missed big chances, and 40 touches. He should have contributed one goal in the first half. Fortunately, Felix was able to take advantage of the momentum from Raphinha's pass, which he executed very well and became a goal for Barcelona. It didn't end there, Barca continued to dominate and even every attack Atletico built was able to be broken up in the midfield sector.
In the first half, Atletico really didn't move. while Barcelona had five big chances and missed four big chances. very much a pity.

Likewise with Felix, he is a talented player. Thanks to him, Barcelona was able to win this match. Unfortunately, sometimes he has difficulty or tends to push himself too hard to penetrate his opponent's defense line. Not infrequently, I always see him in several of his matches with Barcelona. I mean, he hasn't been able to see the right opportunity to enter and the right time to give the ball to another teammate.

As for Atletico, at least the second half was better, they had three shots on target. and one big opportunity. However, overall Barcelona played much better. I think Xavi just needs to fix what his team is lacking. In this match, Barcelona appeared quite impressive. It's just that Lewandowski hasn't been able to be a good finisher. apparently, he needs much better motivation and confidence. especially, after experiencing an injury. As a result, Barcelona reduced the difference in points from the teams above them. and this match, as I predicted in the previous post. Even though the results were slim, as a Barca supporter, I was still happy.
