The big problem for Barça that 'killed' Lewandowski against Athletic

The FC Barcelona lived in Saint Mamés one of the most apathetic days to offensive level in what it goes of LaLiga. The ones of Xavi Hernández suffered the rigour to measure to the AthleticClub , one of the clubs with the best defensive section in the local championship and that in this occasion would limit to the 'artillery' Barcelona only to execute the very scarce figure of two finish with direction to goal. A quite poor number for an offensive front that arrived to Basque earths in an excellent state of form.

Precisely, one of the members of the trident in attack that posed the egarense, Robert Lewandowski, went one of the most affected by the little discharge of game generated by the culés in the commitment in front of the 'Lions'. The ariete Polish, the one who came enjoying of a remarkable series goleadora after converting five annotations in the last five meetings that contested, in this opportunity could not do cost his hierarchy 'agitating the networks'.

Lewandowski, a 'victim' of the little discharge of Barcelona game

The '9' of the FC Barcelona had a quite complex day, since it was not resupplied of the most timely way by his mates, receiving only a balloon filtered inside the area in 99 minutes of action that had. A problem that perhaps could justify by the respective injuries of Pedri González and Frenkie of Jong, two of the 'jugones' of the team culé and that practically are used to to load with the responsibility of the creation of played of danger, feeding to the men that compose the Barcelona offensive front.

Under this premise, does not do an extrañeza that the Polish forward have not had his more brilliant performance in Saint Mamés. His mates have not been able to connect in demasía with him, to the point that only did contact with the balloon in 26 opportunities, being the attacker blaugrana that in fewer occasions had the possession of the ball. No only this, the majority of these connections did not go in a zone where the exjugador of the Bayern could generate a real danger, if no rather were controls withdrawn of the area, since 'Lewy' had to throw backwards in more than an opportunity to be able to go in in the circuit of game of the Barça.

This speech of the clear problem that presented the FC Barcelona in the duel in front of the Athletic Club in Saint Mamés, a commitment where the forwards were not the sufficiently resupplied of occasions of goal and in which practically all the game loaded by the right side, entrusting to a Lamine Yamal in state of grace, but that in this opportunity could not generate differences in front of a very orderly defensive line of the 'Lions'. Definitively, a stage to improve for the next clash of the the cast of the City Condal, to contest next Friday in front of the RCD Mallorca, a combined that has showed that, independently of his position in the table clasificatoria (15°), can be an extremely complicated picture to the hour to defend.
