The multiple drops after the last stop of selections forced to Xavi Hernández to improvise the defensive line to visit to the Mallorca. Jordi Alba went back to the left side and Alejandro Balde changed of side. By his part, Gerard Hammered and Andreas Christensen returned to the eleven to form pair in the half of the saga and the Danish no desentonó beside the experienced central Spanish.

Although it finish the first part admonished, the one of Lillerød fulfilled with the work to detain to the trident conformed by Antonio Sánchez, Kang-in Reads and Vedat Muriqi. In fact, a hard infringement on the Kosovar cost him the yellow, but between him and Hammered devised them to him to avoid that the venues arrived with danger to the arch defended by Marc-André ter Stegen with greater assiduity, although the German, this yes, had a pair of cut across keys to keep the zero.

In total, Christensen was the player that more balloons recovered with a total of 11, this according to the statistics of 'MARK'. Besides, it completed 3 you clear and it lost few balloons (7), completing a very good party in Sound Moix. Sergio Busquets, specialist in giving him clean exit to the team, for example, only recovered 6 balloons, the same that Jordi Alba and Balde, whereas Ter Stegen followed suit with 8 possessions recovered.

The Danish was to title in the two first days of LaLiga and in the two parties of Champions League contested up to now. The Tuesday, except some physical problems, will be to title beside Eric García in Milan in front of the Inter, forming the pair that more used Xavi during the pre-season culé. The injuries of Jules Koundé and Ronald Araújo open him the door to the titularity to Andreas of here to the World-wide, where also will be key piece for his country.

The right side, the doubt of Xavi in front of the Inter

In front of the Mallorca, the technician egarense bet by Balde to profile changed, but in Champions is little likely that the one of Terrassa bet by experiments. In this sense, is very likely that Marcos Alonso occupy the left lane, leaving the doubt of the right side. Sergi Roberto would be the most reliable option, although it neither can descartarse a line of three conformed by Christensen, Hammered and Eric García, with Gavi and Marcos like carrileros. It will be necessary to expect to the Tuesday to see how Xavi resolves his 'puzzle' in defence.
