FC Barcelona's elimination in the Copa del Rey began with an early goal by Athletic Club, a scenario that has been repeated more than necessary so far this season in all competitions.

Calendar of FC Barcelona

That the FC Barcelona fit more goals in this season, regarding the previous, is not surprise. It has remained the feeling that the teams need of very little to plant in the Barcelona area and 'punish' to Iñaki Crag, but what himself has sorprendio is the disconnection and problems of positioning that has derived to that the ones of Xavi Hernández fit goals in the first minutes of party. Against the Athletic Club has gone back to remain evidenciado.

And it is that Gorka Guruzeta did not take more than 35 seconds in imposing in front of Iñaki Crag to open the marker in the crash of quarter-finals of the Glass of Rey. It turned into the goal more tempranero in the new Saint Mamés, from his inauguration in 2013, but went a day more in the office for a Barça that has accustomed to fit in the first compasses of the meeting and that experiences a problem that can be much more 'fat' in the future, because no always the team will be able to react to time.

A history that repeats for the Barça

The precedents scare. It has repeated , more than the account, the fault of concentration of the players after the pitido initial that have derived in goals of the rival in three or four passes. It happened against the Granada, Sportive Alavés, Royal Amberes and against the Athletic Club. In all the competitions, without adding the doublet of Vinicius Jr in the final of the Supercopa of Spain, with targets in the 7' and 10'. It can not be a casualidad for the Catalans and supposes an overwhelming difference regarding the past campaign.

In the 2022/2023 the Barça was a team that 'grew' from the good positioning and capacity to react after the loss of balloon, 'countering' the offensive problems to base of defensive control. It existed a balance, but now the history is totally distinct: From the losses of the balloon until the punctual errors that derive in goals, has been one 'crisis' without finish in this course. And that does not seem to have solution, at least for now.

The Barça 'accustom' to suffer

It does not be necessary to overlook that they have existed occasions in which the picture has known how 'react', trace back or, at least, empatar... But it goes to be always the case? Or they will accustom 'always' to row contracorriente in research of a traced back? Against the Granada the crash finish in a 2-2, in front of the Alavés in traced back (2-1) and in front of the Royal Amberes in defeat (3-2), same stage that in Saint Mamés. In spite of the traced back in the first part (1-2) and good feelings of the team, was not sufficient and finish 'falling' in the extention.
