The FC Barcelona achieved to take out the three points of a party that initiated of big way, with good game and a goal of Leo Messi, but that finish complicating because of the push of the Slavia Prague and to the ineffectiveness of the game of the culés, that saw desbordados and were near to see how them empataban.
There is an especially significant data that helps to see why the end of the party decanted so much to the edict of the current champions of the Czech Republic: the quilómetros visited by both teams. The players of the Slavia Prague ran, in total, 14'784 quilómetros more than the ones of the FC Barcelona.
In the final stretch of the party, did evident that the FC Barcelona was very worn and with few energies, whereas in the Slavia Prague seemed that, by physical capacity, had not arrived not even to the rest. The culés saw surpassed and only Ousmane Dembélé, that had gone in from the bench, seemed to be fresco.
In fact, in this third day of the phase of groups of the Champions League, the FC Barcelona was the team that less ran of the 32 that played. The Bayer Leverkusen was the one who more quilómetros visited (121,1), gone on down the Leipzig German (117,5), the Athletic of Madrid (115,2) and the own Slavia of Prague (115,2).
In total, the Barça only ran 100'4 quilómetros, being surpassed by the others 31 groups. Above the culés remained teams like the Club Witches (102,6), the Naples (103,5), Paris Saint-Germain (104,5) or Chelsea (105,4). The Real Madrid, in his victory against the Galatasaray, ran a total of 107'4.
The Barça, very tired
If something learnt of genii of the bench like Pep Guardiola or Johan Cruyff is that it does not do fault that the players run a lot, but it do it the balloon. However, against the Slavia Prague, the FC Barcelona did not attain that it happened neither a thing neither the another, and the result was a catastrophic party. To the ones of Valverde saw them tired and asking the hour in front of a team with more impetus and vigour.
