The Barça premièred LaLiga this Sunday with a worked victory in front of the Betis, with a tactical revolution that this time yes worked. However, the one who did not attain to shine in the Camp Nou was Paco Alcácer, that happened unobserved until it was substituted
After a summer to forget, the Barça began to give steps to his sportive recovery and anímica with a triumph home against the Betis, and there were several distinguished players by his good exert in the première suspender belt. In spite of everything, between the Deulofeu, Semedo or Sergi Roberto there was some prejudiced, and this time touched him to Paco Alcácer.
Although the shake that Ernesto Valverde applied to the Barcelona alignment served to free to Messi and stood out, between others, the virtues of Sergi Roberto, the forward was one of the big sacrificed of the 4-2-3-1 of the extremeño. Accustomed to play in tip, the Valencian showed the past season that occasionally can fulfil more near of the band, but the past Sunday exasperated in a meeting in which it never was comfortable.
His performance remained limited to some faults received when it went down to receive of backs and some promising combinations to the edge of the area, more near of his real zone of influence. But while Deulofeu enjoyed by both sides and threw off balance the marker with his assistances, Alcácer did not find his place, and lost a good opportunity in his fight for substituting to Luis Suárez.
Looking for goal
In his last minutes on the lawn and especially when the one of Riudarenes left his place to Aleix Vidal, Paco Alcácer tried it throwing more to the centre, freeing the lane for Jordi Alba and trying take advantage of the danger that headed Leo Messi, bullicioso in his crusade for finding goal.
But neither the Argentinian neither the Valencian attained it, and the one of Torrent left cabizbajo after 82 minutes with more effort that goals, and with the feeling that his first opportunity of the course saldó with less shine of the that would owe. With Suárez lesionado and the reinforcements without arriving, each party is decisive for Alcácer, but for the moment will have to expect a week more to show that it is prepared to triumph in the Barça.
