The Barça left the magic wand of Umtiti in Manchester

The defeat of the FC Barcelona in the Etihad Stadium against the Manchester City meant, in addition to losing three points that would have classified mathematically to the Barcelona group for the eighth of UEFA Champions League, that the team of Luis Enrique have lost the "magic" of results that had with Samuel Umtiti in the eleven headline.

And it is that until this past Tuesday the Barcelona never had lost with the French defender in the eleven, in a statistics that showed the amazingly well that it has adapted Umtiti to the saga barcelonista. In this occasion, however, the magic of the talisman turned off, although it did not go by fault of the performance of the Frenchman, neither much less.

Samuel Umtiti was one of the best players of the Barça against the Manchester City, supporting to his mates and diverting the danger whenever it could. It could say, in fact, that went the best Barcelona defender in the Etihad Stadium, and that his individual performance saw prejudiced by errors of some of his mates.

In any case, the statistics says that from now play with Umtiti no longer is a signal of safe victory, as it was it before. With the step of the parties, therefore, the FC Barcelona will have to recover the defensive solvency, whereas Umtiti the only that it will have to do is to keep the excellent level of game that carries showing since it landed in the Camp Nou. Up to now, it is the signing that has contributed a better performance.
