Heartbreaking to many people including the non Barcelona fans who watched with keen interest. Hansi Flick had started this season with much energy that got many people praising him and also thinking that he could win this season effortlessly with his strategic offensive tactics. Today's match against Las Palmas will make it the third successive La Liga matches that's been lost by Barcelona.
Many were already celebrating over the penalty chance that Barcelona got towards the 90th minutes of the game but to my greatest surprise nothing was materialized from it. Its more heartbreaking to the Barca side considering that they were the hosts. Real Madrid is just three points below the Barcelona club at the La Liga league table standing today.
It is a really disappointing kind of a drop in performance by Barcelona these days. How did they manage to lose to Las Palmas home? Many were already celebrating over the penalty chance that Barcelona got towards the 90th minutes of the game but to my greatest surprise nothing was materialized from it. Its more heartbreaking to the Barca side considering that they were the hosts. Real Madrid is just three points below the Barcelona club at the La Liga league table standing today.
They even got behind for 2 times during the game. When we check the lineup they didn't have 2 of their usual players. Yamal was among the substitutes after recovering from his injury. Olmo also didn't play. I guess Hansi Flick wanted to rest him after the Brest game.When Yamal entered at the beginning of the second half, I got more hopeful. However they still got a bad loss... Now Real Madrid technically have a big chance to take the lead from Barcelona considering they have a missing game.
I don't know why Yamal is not in the starting XI today. Hansi FLick made the same mistake against Osasuna. And Barcelona lost against Osasuna too. Nobody expected Barcelona to lose against Las Palmas. There is no doubt that many bettors lost their money today. We all expected Barcelona to win.
Barcelona created many chances to score. But they couldn't score more than one. We didn't see a better performance from Lewandowski in this match. If Lewa had played well, Barcelona would have been able to win this match. Except for Raphinha, no other player from Barcelona played so well in this match. However, if Real Madrid win their upcoming matches, Barcelona will lose the top spot in the table. I am sure Hansi Flick is feeling a lot of pressure at the moment.
