I can just imagine the number of betslips that Barcelona has spoil tonight. They lost unexpectedly and Hansi Flick must surely regret the team rotation now. I was thinking that the young players that have been given an opportunity to star will be able to impress the new coach but they failed and put Barcelona in a very bad position and even before the key players came back in to try and remedy the solution it was already too late. Real Madrid fans will be happy with this drop in points because Barcelona were looking unstoppable when the season started.
There are many reasons why Barcelona lost the match, one of which was player rotation. Another thing that made them lose was the performance of the attackers who were unable to maximize the opportunities that existed. Poor defense due to player injuries and poor performance of the attackers were some of the reasons why Barcelona lost, but the good performance of Osasuna's defenders cannot be ignored.
I was impressed with how Lamine Yamal impacted Barcelona’s game yesterday, even scoring a great goal before injury time. Yamal is the best young player in La Liga so far and he has 4 goals and 5 assists in 8 games. Ferran Torres hasn’t been at his best, but he is a one of solution for Barcelona’s needs in the striker position.
