Barcelona are supposed to be leading the game by at least three goals but have been really wasteful with their opportunities. Mallorca too should have corrected the misbehavior of Barcelona and scored more goals but have being seeing their chances ruled off for offside and even though they have responded and equalled the scoreline, it isn't enough.
OMG! Raphinha just missed his chance to give his side the lead before the break!
The first half has just come to a close and I'm hoping that Barca can come back into the game and get three points since they are just one point above Madrid, losing or drawing this game will just see them kissing their top spot goodbye.
Records have it that in the four games that Lamine Yamal have been away, the blaugrana have lost, I hope the kid's presence today can help Hans Flick's boys win.
And the wonder kid has done it! Although not having any goals himself no matter how hard he tried, Lamine Yamal was instrumental in the first three goals that Barcelona in the beginning of the second half.
Hans Flick will be impressed by how well his team dominated the second half and if you look at it, Mallorca weren't a threat because a team who can't time their runs and are always being caught offside shows they are desperate and will make mistakes so it's good that Barcelona were able to punish their desperation. With this win, the blaugrana are now four points away from real Madrid.
It's great to have Yamal back on the pitch. His previous injury on the ankle affected Barcelona's performance in several LaLiga matches. Now that he has fully recovered from his ankle injury, we can expect Barcelona to win most of their games. The next important match on their schedule is the Champions League clash against Dortmund. I am confident they will win, especially since Lewandowski will be fully available in the match, unlike today's game where he was not in the squad, still yet Barcelona won by 1-5 against Mallorca. Imagine if he then plays
