Calendar of FC Barcelona

'The Red' has begun the stop FIFA of this month of September with a defeat that leaves feelings very agridulces for the selection directed by Luis Enrique. The Spaniards began the very active crash, playing with eapidez and being very vertical, but were many the doubts that left in the defensive saga, as they already have accustomed in the last months.

In the crash, the three representatives of the FC Barcelona, Sergio Busquets, Eric García and Jordi Alba, were headlines, with a very key assistance of the left side. The true is that the ones of 'Struggle' advanced very soon, in the minute four, thanks to a goal of the debutante Carlos Soler, that arrived from backwards to pass of Alba to finish in the second stick and win to the guardameta Swedish.

Nevertheless, Isak empató the crash immediately. In the 6', an imprecision to Be used to, in a pass that could not control well Busquets, took advantage of it the enchufadísimo leading of the Real Sociedad to beat to Unai Simón with a zapatazo crusader that signed the tables in the marker. Spain tried to react and Morata, Gerard Moreno or Jordi Alba looked for goal, but without hitting in the absolute.

The feelings in the first time were very good, especially by the speed and verticality of the team, but when Sweden went out in contragolpe, the Spaniards suffered too much to recover the balloons. In fact, in the last minutes of the first act, 'The Red' lived a nightmare after a big combination that almost left to Isak alone. The forward terimnó wrapping and lost the advantage.

Claesson Punished to 'The Red'

In the second time, to Spain happened him bill have forgiven so much. They could mark in the 49', after a dangerous centre that could not take out the defence and arrived to touch of bowl Ferran Torres but no with the sufficient strength and Oslen finished clearing without problems. From there, 'The Red' went to rack and ruin... And Sweden took advantage of it.

Shortly after ten minutes, Kulusevski signed a big played and yielded backwards to Claesson, so that it put it very well beside the stick and put to his by in front in the marker. The so much gave him wings to the Swedish, that did with the absolute control of the meeting and shut to the Spaniards in his field.

In the 70', Eric García, that had not had his best party, was providencial to take out with the tip to Isak the shot when the forward had the goal in his boots. Spain lived a bitter night, without capacity of reaction and with few options for 'resurgir' in the field. With Traoré looked for to be more offensive, but without effectiveness.

Now, Spain remains in hands of the Swedish. If they do not fail before the party in The Cartuja in November, the square is direct for Sweden. In case of repechage, is without possibility of correction, that is to say, 'The Red' would have to win two direct finals (no in front of a same rival) to double party.
