Barcelona struggled to withstand the rapid pressure from Rayo Vallecano's attacks from all sides. This is clearly a problem Hansi Flick must address before the end of the match. Barcelona seemed to struggle to outwit the opposing defense and tended to give the ball away easily, but there's still room for improvement.

Barcelona is not playing badly. But, Rayo Vallecano players are playing just great. The players are very confident. Although the opponent is strong, the Vallecano players do not care about Barcelona. Vallecano scored their second goal in the 85th minute of the match. However, the goal was disallowed due to offside. Barcelona is undoubtedly very lucky. In the 88th minute, the match is still 1-1. However, both are trying to win. So it is not yet possible to say what the result of the match will be. Because in the previous match, we saw that Barcelona scored after 90 minutes and won against Levante. Even in the first match, Barcelona scored a goal after 90 minutes. So I am waiting to see another goal.

Very huge blow for Barcelona because dropping points mean that Real Madrid will remain at the top of the table and whenever Real Madrid is topping the league table in the early stage of the season, it's always hard for them to give it up accept when the league has gone far. Barcelona has problem in their defense that is why they conceded goals in all the three games they have played so far. Rayo Vallecano were also determined in this game which is why they could equalize and almost won Barcelona but the match ended 1:1. The season is still new anyways, within mid season we will see how the league table will look like, if Barcelona or Real Madrid will be at the top.

Today's game was indeed a disappointment because I lost my bet because of this game. I was expecting barcelona to win the game but it seems that rayo vallencano really put up a good competition against them. Barcelonas position is being threatened at this point because other teams are also pushing towards it and they are not relenting. Like you said, Barca really needs to work on their defense
