In situations 'normale's, as it happened before the injury, Dembélé would be the chosen to accompany to Robert Lewandowski in the line of Barcelona attack. In these last three months, however, Raphinha 'won' this place, by in front of Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres, and the reality is that it has fulfilled with grow. It has demanded him , maybe, more than to the rest, but also has showed that has hollow in this team.

The Brazilian attacker left the field in the 73' to leave his place to an Ousmane Dembélé that, after three months in the dry dam, left good feelings. It was not able to be decisive in the minutes that was, but yes left details of quality and achieved to like by the right. It sent good balloons and had opportunity to approach to the rival area, although without success. It is in a good physical state and aims to much more in this final stretch of season.

There will be wrap in the Barcelona attack?

The true is that the good level that showed Raphinha and the return of Dembélé desatará a big fight in the attack culé, in the research of a place to accompany to Robert Lewandowski, the one who is the only that it is a fixed in the forward of Xavi Hernández. Already in the previous remained clear that the trainer egarense will have a lot of work to decide, but now has confirmed .

Dembélé Is a guarantee of desborde and danger by the right, although it also stands out by the left. It is a player that constantly is generating occasions for the team, but that in some moments fails in the taking of decisions. Raphinha, by his part, is a footballer with an interminable list of resources and that conditions to the rival defence, but that has not attained to be regulate in his first season in the City Condal. The two have with what contest a place.
