Calendar of FC Barcelona

Xavi Hernández aimed in press conference that the FC Barcelona needed a party convincente to give this 'pasito' that so much had resisted him in LaLiga in this month of February. The culés added ten of twelve possible points, but in previous crashes had left more doubts that certainties, by the little defensive solidity offered in front of the Granada or the form agónica to win in front of the Celtic. The triumph against the Getafe, with goleada included, aviva the spirits in the team.

Further of the result, the feelings that has left the party of the Barcelona are more than positive. It has served for 'free' of the pressure accumulated of these last weeks and shake of the tie -deserved or no- against the Naples, and that also has several key that invite to think that the trainer egarense is giving with the key so that the team show his more solvent version in this stretch 'decisive' of the season, with LaLiga and Champions League at stake.

Xavi Hernández 'give' with the key in the Barça

The have minimised to the Getafe is not little thing, because it is a team that is used to to get in trouble to the Barcelona in each clash. Xavi had throw of his heavy artillery, although had less than 72 hours to prepare the party. Which has been the big change? The Barça was a team that knew to take advantage of the fact that the azulones presionaban very up and left his very advanced defence, with a lot of space to the back of the central. Raphinha And Joao Félix 'exploded' this resource and the culés did not take in finding the way to the goal.

The target that opened the marker arrived of this way and the formula repeated one and again, in front of the fault of answer of José Bordalás and company from the band. It was first Jules Koundé the one who left to Raphinha alone with a lot of terrain of game by in front and of there the history began to smile him to a Barça that took advantage of spaces and that in the majority of the occasions found to the two extremes (or to Christensen!) With advantages to drive and plant in the rival area.

And it is that for the second goal of the afternoon, Ter Stegen touched for Araújo, the one who to his time yielded to Pau Cubarsí that printed speed to the played so that between Gündogan and the always present Raphinha cooked the pass with which Christensen, arriving by the right band, found to Joao Félix only in the heart of the area so that only it had to push the balloon. Frenkie Of Jong, to pass of the Brazilian, and later Fermín López put the guinda to the cake in an afternoon plácida for all the barcelonismo.

The way to be followed for the Barça

The party of the Barça had very few errors and attained see the version more 'fine' of the attackers in the last pass, especially in the second half. Raphinha Was protagonist of two important failures after the 1-0, with bad decisions, but claimed in the resumption with one of his best performances like Barcelona. They benefited and they exploded the lacks of a Getafe that always gives war, but that in Montjuïc did not know to react to the initial hit.
