A "derbi" Espanyol-FC Barcelona is much more that three simple points, and this remained patent during the first minutes of the meeting contested in Cornellà-The Prat. The ones of Galca went out to the very intense lawn, with a big offensive pressure that caused some thefts near of the goal of Claudio Bravo in front of which Felipe Caicedo erigió like big danger for the defence culé. The FC Barcelona went out something passive, trying control the possession of the spherical and waiting for that amainara the intensity of the parakeets, that did not leave to the Barcelona go out of the own field practically in the first five minutes of game.

With the high lawn, that hampered the speed in the game for the culés, to the medullary of the Barça cost him too much connect with the forward formed by Neymar Jr, Leo Messi and Luis Suárez, those who had to go down too much to field suitable for receiving balloons at all dangerous, but yes effective to the hour of desorganizar to the defence blanquiazul and can cause some that another beneficial counterattack for the ones of Luis Enrique. Claudio Bravo showed very sure at all times with the balloon in the feet and gave exit to the game connecting with Hammered and Mascherano. This yes, little by little the culés were approaching progressively to the area of Pau López.

González González begins to mark terrain


The Espanyol seemed to be more comfortable without the possession of the spherical that with her, what allowed to the Barça "sleep" the offensive pressure of the pericos so that Luis Suárez, in the minute 8 of party, caused the first clear occasion in favour of the FC Barcelona. The forward charrúa unfolded in the right band and took out a precise centre to the that Jordi Alba did not arrive by little, already with all the goal to his disposal to annotate the first so much of the meeting. González González, few minutes afterwards, reflected how would be his arbitration along the meeting when allowing a very hard entrance of Caicedo on Luis Suárez without signalling neither so at least the fault, in front of what was a clear yellow.

In the minute 19 of party, however, would be the Barça the one who would show that, to base of command of the possession and the magic of the three players from above, would have big options to win the party. And it is that a played braided by Neymar, Suárez and Messi by little finish with the first goal of the FC Barcelona after a pass of the death of the Brazilian star, that had confined in the area espanyolista with two touch of mastery. It would be, nevertheless, a played isolated in a sea of uncertainty on the terrain of game, in a party with several broncas between footballers of both teams and very little football. To the edge of the half hour of meeting, a rifirrafe between Mascherano and Álvaro just before it took out a corner in favour of the Espanyol finished in caution for both contendientes, although the local player pushed in two occasions to the Argentinian.

The Barça does not achieve to combine with danger


The party found very trabado, with a lot of location of the balloon in the field of the FC Barcelona and little brilliance in the combinations, by fault largely of the permissiveness of a González González too kind "" with the hard entrances of the footballers of the Espanyol. And it is that the referee did not teach clear yellow cards to Hernán Pérez by entrance on Neymar and Enzo Roco by a fault without will to play the balloon to the edge of the area on Leo Messi. In this played, in fact, Leo Messi sent to the crosshead a shot that could have turned into the first so much of the meeting. That was the stick number 14 of the FC Barcelona in what it goes of League 2015-16.

With a so scandalous arbitration of González González against of the Barcelona, to the culés cost them horrors generate opportunities of dangerous goal for the goal of Pau López. In the minute 43, however, Messi filtered a balloon in the interior of the area for Andrés Iniesta, the one who did not achieve to control the ball to send it at the end of the meshes. It was one of the few approaches of the ones of Luis Enrique in the first-half, that finished with a new aggression of a player of the Espanyol to Neymar, punished with a simple lacking that González González neither so at least allowed to take out.

The Barça begins the second very intense time


The second half began with a FC Barcelona much more concentrated on the terrain of game, having of a clear opportunity of goal in which a defender of the Espanyol took out under sticks a shot of Neymar after a glorious played of Luis Suárez when Pau López already was sold. The trident of the FC Barcelona began to combine very near of the area of the goalkeeper blanquiazul and had of several corners, generating dangerous occasions and increasing the nerves of an Espanyol less combativo that in the first act, with the tiredness accumulated in the legs. The Paraguayan Hernán Pérez, however, took advantage of a counterattack to connect a shot raso that left slightly diverted to the right of the goal of Claudio Bravo.

The opportunities of goal of the start of the second half amainaron with the step of the minutes, going in the party in a phase of control of the game by part of the FC Barcelona but without arriving to concretise the sufficient as for fraguar the first goal of the party. The ones of Luis Enrique followed trying it and causing corners, although in the minute 18 Leo Messi had a good option to mark finishing from out of the area a shot that cut across Pau without problems, when leaving too centred. It was however the first finish to goal of all the meeting by part of the two teams, what already says a lot of how passed the crash (never better said).

González González prevents the triumph of the Barça


The FC Barcelona was taking out a corner after another, but without taking advantage of any of them, whereas the Espanyol every time was feeling more comfortable in the position to hold the result, taking into account that the Barça did not achieve to hurt to the local group. To fault of a chamber of hour for the term of the party, Neymar Jr had of a clear opportunity finishing of acrobatic form a centre from the left of Leo Messi, although this was too toneless and Pau López did not have too many problems to detain it and avoid like this the Barcelona goal.

The offensive intensity of the FC Barcelona was growing with the step of the minutes, but also the imprecisions to the hour to connect the passes to the trident. In this coyuntura, everything seemed to indicate that only a miracle of any of the stars culés could desequilibrar the meeting, although this did not arrive and the minutes went happening. The Espanyol began to lose time, rascando all the possible minutes simulating physical ailments and also in the changes. At the end, tie in Cornellà that could do that the Barça lose the leadership of the League BBVA, although with a party less.
