The Betis 'punish' to a Barça that suffers his first defeat with Xavi (0-1)

The FC Barcelona of Xavi Hernández suffers his first defeat and is far of enamorar. The game of the Barcelona is going through to be very irregular and with little shine, although they are some the green shoots of the team. Every time it is more 'common' that the Barça jump to the field with impetus, win to propose and sentence immediately, but lose bellows quickly in front of the pressure of the rival. Against the Real Betis was not the exception and saw to a Barcelona picture very active in the first fifteen minutes, but with little that offer later.

For the occasion, Xavi surprised in the alignment, with several changes stood out that 'confirmed' that the technician egarense was thinking more in the 'final' against the Bayern of Munich of the next week. Philippe Coutinho was the main novelty of the approach culé and went precisely a very differential player and with a lot of power. First it threw the pipe in the left band, but 'slept' to define. 'Cou' Had one of the clearest occasions of the first part, after a centre raso of Jordi Alba, that touched the Brazilian in the first stick, but topó to a Rui Silva very attentive in the short stick to detain in two times.

From there, the Barça left to propose or approach to the area bética. The ones of Manuel Pellegrini, instead, were winning confidence and metres in the field. The Betis was merodeando the area of Rui Silva, without sufficient danger, but doing work 'of more' to the culés. Sergiño Dest Was suffering with Juanmi and Álex Moreno, those who were being the most dangerous players of the first part. In the equator of the first part, arrived the first clear occasion: Ter Stegen failed in the exit and Juanmi arrived to empty door, but was advanced.

The party was being slow, without occasions and with a new nightmare for the Barça: Gavi saw forced to abandon the terrain of game in the 35', after a pelotazo (and the fall) that left him felt dizzy. The canterano abandoned the field in stretcher, totally 'KO', to leave him his gap to Riqui Puig. The Betis took advantage of the embarrassment and to the edge of the rest arrived the clearest occasions: First a centre of Moreno to the heart of the area,with a finish of Ruibal of espuela that did not finish with goal of miracle. Two minutes afterwards, the left side sent a centre poisoned that forced to Ter Stegen to pull for 'save' to the culés.

More doubts that certainties in the Barça

The beginning of the second part began like the end of the first, with the Betis a bit more put and the Barça desconectado, as if they did not have hastes. Bellerín Tried to surprise with a centre that almost 'hunting' Juanmi, but anticipated Ter Stegen to avoid all the danger. The ones of Xavi were being very imprecise, without shine and with problems to create. The danger arrived, truly, in the 52', with a goal cancelled to Juanmi that almost 'sink' to the culés.

Rubial Commanded a centre that Juanmi finished launching to the floor. The player verdiblanco was advanced, very just, forcing to the VAR to trace the lines to confirm the position irreglamentaria. The Barça wanted to win metres in the field and before the hour of party, Rui Silva saved the one who could be the 1-0. Dest Sent a centre and the guardameta 'saved' underneath to divert the shot of the international with United States.

With the entry of Dembélé, the Barcelona were being more electrical, but without being sufficient to break the equality until this moment. The 'Mosquito' shot with thread looking for the long stick of the French and Rui Silva went back to appear to clear to the corner. The French had another shot, more forced, that left diverted. The Barça was having an important mejoría, 'thank you' to Dembélé, but without being decisive.

Juanmi 'Punish' to the Barça

Without mattering the result, the competition or the protagonists, the FC Barcelona is accustoming to suffer too much in all the parties. The command was being evident, but the occasions no so clear. They were not a lot of the merits to a Barcelona picture that 'depend' of the electricity of Ousmane to begin to propose. The ex culé Bartra covered a centre raso of the 'Mosquito' and afterwards Of Jong tried to go in driving in solitary but finish receiving a fault.

When better were the culés, the Betis punished. In his clearer opportunity, sentenced to the culés with an authentic golazo of Juanmi. The ones of Pellegrini looked for a contragolpe phenomenal led by Channels, the one who threw a taconazo and cut, touched to the frontal for Tello and, after controlling, opened for a Juanmi that received only, tricked to the defence and annotated with a shot raso to the long stick.

The goal left 'KO' to the Barça of Xavi, that brushed the tie with a centre of Dembélé for Abde that, totally only in the second stick, finished at first went. The culés were powerless, without ideas and suffering to the end to complicate even more his walk by LaLiga, with alone 23 points to date... It touches to row to contracorriente.
