Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona is in luck this week. His 'minicrisis' could have fattened with a complicated visit to Wembley, but closed with a goleada to the Tottenham in Champions. With the feeling that it suffered more than what would owe, the Catalan group went back home with a victory that can cost his weight in gold, and that has finished a choral triumph with several individual distinctions.

To start with, Leo Messi carried the 'MVP' of the second day, repeating an award that already carried inthe first . After his 'hat-trick' to the PSV Eindhoven arrived a doublet against the 'spurs', giving a true recital and being able to fatten his account, because in addition to marking by double game sent two balloons to the sticks and made an authentic exhibition of football.

But the Argentinian did not go in this occasion the only Barcelona in being stood out, since although Ousmane Dembélé remained to the doors, Ivan Rakitic himself attained the prize to the goal of the week in the Glass of Europe. A spectacular volley that the own midfield player defined like one of the so many more beautiful of his career, and that left to a champion of the world like Hugo Lloris without possibility to avoid the one who sure will be one of the most stood out of tournament.

The difficulty of the shot, with a balloon that remained loose but very up and that connected with a precise technical gesture –adjusting to perfection strike, power and effect-, have cost him for the moment to surpass the zapatazo of Arnaut Groeneveld (Witches) to the Athletic of Madrid, another brilliant volley of Paulo Dybala (Juventus) to the Young Boys and the free shot magistral of Neymar (PSG) to the Crash Red

The calendar does not stop: The Barça already thinks in Valencia

Although the illusion of Champions still hard in the City Condal, touches to reinforce it with another victory that allow to step forward in LaLiga, where three tropiezos consecutive meant several threats to the leadership that others commissioned to pop. In a so complicated field like Mestalla, is necessary to go back to find with the best version of game and leave section to a very needed Valency of victories.

Repeat good feelings would be key because it would allow to reinforce the candidature of the Barça to all the titles, and besides do it before a stop to the that always is better to carry positive conclusions. Another trip could leave an uncomfortable unrest in the changing room, but if it goes back to give in the nail, will face the demanding final of the month of October with motivation and confidence to do things very big.
