The FC Barcelona fell for the second time in LaLiga Santander 2022-2023, this Sunday in the Power Horse Stadium in his visit to the Almería. It has been a lot of demérito of a Barcelona team that signed a disastrous first-half in which the ones of Rubi the 'cancelled' completely and, on the way, took advantage of to advance in the marker with a golazo of Bilal after a pass of Luis Suárez.

The goal arrived in the equator of the first part, with a Barça unrecognizable. Further of the massive rotations (five, regarding the party against the Manchester United), in this opportunity the team was very desconectado, desorientado and without rhythm. The party that began to pose the culés was excessively slow and seemed to remain without 'life' very soon. The Almería took advantage of to exasperate to the Barcelona. And they achieved it.

The goal of Bilal was not casualidad neither surprise. The venues achieved presionar very well the spaces and 'liked' in his field, to the point that after having put the 1-0, had two opportunities more than increasing the advantage, from the corner. The Barça, by his part, had not shot to the arch for the first time and, in fact, closed the first 45' without doing sweat to Fernando, that finished very to taste in his area in front of the passivity of the Barcelona.

In the resumption, Xavi understood that the team needed an extra course and gave gone in to Raphinha to relieve to Franck Kessié. Go back to play with three attackers and three means to contain to the Almería and launch to the attack, with more resources, but followed without being sufficient although the team showed much more impetus and 'strength' (or win?) Regarding what had proposed before. The Brazilian gave rebeldía to the game, but the ones of Rubi followed without suffering in excess.

A 'change' insufficient

However, it saw a slight change of dynamics: The Almería did not attack and cost him surpass the centre of the field, but also was very concentrated to defensive level. The sides were denying any option and the Barça went back to change the script, without a lot of effect. They happened to live of centres and gather, in the area, to Lewandowski, Raphinha and Araújo.

All the occasions of the Barça arrived from centres. The clearest was one of Ferran Torres that it poisoned on the way, but Lewandowski neither Raphinha reached to finish. Afterwards it was the '4' charrúa the one who found in an ideal position for cabecear, but shot without direction to goal of surprising way. A Barça without spark, tarpaulin and that did not find the way to the goal.
