Barcelona still has a chance to win against Mallorca because Xavi still hasn't included Lewandowski as far as the match is going.
Xavi still entrusts the 18 year old young striker to the center forward position with his own formation.
There is still a chance. but...
Indeed, so far, the result is
still a draw 0 - 0.
Well, if you look at the statistics, Barcelona is far superior. Barcelona also made a pretty good attack, but it wasn't too sharp so Mallorca could still beat it quite well.
Correct. There's still a chance. Not long after you said that, the score changed to Barcelona's advantage...
Xavi's decision was right, Lewandowski was introduced by Xavi, so Lewandowski became the player who provided Yamal with an assist in scoring the goal so that Barcelona's current position is 1-0.
Lewandowski is an experienced player. As a senior compared to Marc Guiu and Yamal, Xavi seemed to already know that if he brought in Lewandowski to replace Marc Guiu there would be changes.
This 1-0 advantage will be maintained until the end of the match. It's possible that the final score will not be 1-0, but 2-0.
The match proved to be quite challenging for Barcelona, as Mallorca put up a tough fight throughout. However, Barcelona ultimately emerged victorious with a narrow one-goal margin, securing their win in the game. Despite the intense pressure Barcelona exerted on Mallorca, the outcome was uncertain until the final moments. The introduction of Lewandowski into the pitch during the second half proved to be a strategic decision.
Despite his advancing age, Lewandowski demonstrated his value to the team, showcasing his enduring skill and effectiveness on the field. Considering his age, one might not expect him to play a full-time role, but his performance proved otherwise. Utilizing him judiciously, the coach maximized Lewandowski's impact, contributing significantly to Barcelona's success in the match.
