Even though Robert Lewandowski can be said to be a new player at Barcelona, in reality his presence brought victory only at the start, whereas currently conditions cannot bring victory to Barcelona, even though he scored a goal in the 33rd minute, which shows that Robert Lewandowski is still trying hard to score goals even though Barcelona is experiencing quite critical internal problems.
It was not entirely Robert Lewandowski's fault because Barcelona players were experiencing a crisis of trust in playing and even though it was not a more precise reason. The presence of Robert Lewandowski has a good impact on Barcelona but the difficulties faced by them are now increasingly complex where there are a number of injured players and financial problems that cannot make Barcelona recruit the players needed.

Yesterday's match looked so easy for Real Madrid to break into the pen goal and I think their defense line was quite problematic. Xavi Hernandez will experience a critical condition of several conditions that occur and maybe the effect of the injury of some players will further worsen the situation, so it will be quite difficult for him to rotate the player to the future.

It wasn't entirely Lewandowski's fault, but if you look at the attacking lines of the last 15 years, then they are now not even close in quality to what they were used to at Barcelona. I understand the frustration when they are still longing for two strikers like Suarez and Messi, The attacking line Barcelona now has is much weaker. But it is not only the attacking line, it is the midfield and the defense that are both not as strong anymore.

Real Madrid made a lot of right decisions. Barcelona has some great talents, but they don't have players that are so decisive like Vinicius Junior or Bellingham. I also think that Real Madrid's defensive players are stronger in aggregate than Barcelona's defensive players.
Barcelona's performance against Real Madrid in the final match looked very poor. If we consider the performance of the final match, it is certain that Barcelona to Real Madrid have done well in every position. Barcelona ended the first half with a three-goal lead, but even in the second half, Barcelona could not turn around against Real Madrid.  Barcelona looked very frustrated throughout the match and seemed to be giving up helpless against Real Madrid. When Real Madrid confirmed the first final, like everyone, I also expected Real Madrid's opponent to be Barcelona, because the match between Barcelona and Real Madrid means extreme excitement, but Barcelona fulfilled the expectations of going to the final, but could not perform as expected against Real Madrid.
