In this season, as it already occurred in the past, the FC Barcelona is having an important problem with the sticks. The pupilos of Ernesto Valverde crashed again two balloons to the wood in front of the Valency to charge of Sergi Roberto
The FC Barcelona is one of the teams that more goals has marked in all the European football, but these figures could be still greater if the luck had accompanied a bit more to the ones of Ernesto Valverde, that to his time are one of the teams that more times has crashed the balloon to the sticks.
The Barça seems little lucky in this appearance of face to door. The 24 sticks that carries the Barcelona team during the current season seem to suppose an authentic curse for the team directed by Ernesto Valverde. In front of Valencia, the Barcelona commanded two balloons to the stick that could have supposed the victory.
Curiously, against the team 'che' was Sergi Roberto the one who crashed against the stick by double game, but Leo Messi keeps on being the most prejudiced player by the launchings to the stick. In fact, of the 24 sticks of the FC Barcelona in the present season, the Argentinian star has been protagonist of nine of them.
In addition to Leo Messi, there are several players that have seen frustrated his goals by fault of the sticks. Luis Suárez would be the following in the list, since it has crashed the balloon in the sticks five times. It follows him very closely Philippe Coutinho with four and Ousmane Dembélé carries three. After the duel in front of Valencia, Sergi Roberto, with two, planted above Munir, that carries one.
Too many times are those that the FC Barcelona has topado with the sticks or with the crossbar during the present campaign. In until 24 occasions the wood has refused the Barcelona shots, something that could have changed totally the figures goleadoras of the team of Valverde, beginning by the tie in front of Valencia.
In a review to the parties in which there have been balloons to the stick, it is necessary to appoint the ones of the Supercopa of Spain in front of the Seville (Messi and Dembélé); the ones of League in front of the Sportive Alavés (Messi, twice), Huesca (Dembélé and Messi), Athletic Club (Coutinho and Messi), Valencia (Sergi Roberto, twice); and the ones of Champions in front of the Tottenham (two of Messi and two of Coutinho).
