Barcelona left almost the classification for the semifinals of the Champions League after giving an exhibition in the first leg against Dortmund. Only once has the 4-0 that the Barca ones achieved that, beyond the result, showed a global manifest superiority that the Barça trident made the win. It has dynamite to give and take with Lamine, Raphinha and Lewandowski.
The Spanish team began by attacking the Dortmund with his game on the sides, with the quality of Lamine and the insistence of Raphinha, more extreme than ever, because in the Flick team it is common for him to go to the center. The teenager forced Kobel to do the first stretch and then, in his second clear action, after haggling Bensebaini in a brick, he was wrong to look for the impossible goal instead of the pass back, which was very clear. On the other hand, the Brazilian reached the background and one of his centers finished them as Lewandowski came, and Kobel intervened again, this time spectacularly, because the ball came very quickly. I had control of the game and the game, because it dominated with the ball and recovered it quickly, avoiding cons. Fermín received between the lines and Jong and Pedri carried the command. Despite so much domain, the goal was in an action on a stopped ball. A play studied, because the fault launched by Fermín was “past”, but for Iñigo Martínez to make a second head pass to the area, already with the most disorderly defense. Cubarsí put the tip of the boot … and also did it later Raphinha, who could be the desire to be Pichichi. His position was fair and risted a goal that was already made, at the limit of the offside.
The first part had three sections: that first very good of Barcelona, a second of more harmless control and then the third, in which who went on to dominate the scene was the Dortmund, because the locals began to make mistakes in the pass and to have losses in danger. The most striking action of Adeyemi had been a surprising pull of hairs Koundé that cost him the yellow, but soon turned on the engine. He had three options Guirassy, second scorer of the championship, but in the first, a stunned play, he finished in the air, then he also did not manage to put the boot and in which he did the best, the most complicated, after haggling Cubarsí, he sent the ball to the net, but on the outside.
The rest came well to Barça and it came better to score the second goal. Because the Dortmund wanted to scare after the return of the changing rooms with a more aggressive pressure and very high. He could not check the effect, because Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Lewandowski were associated to mark the second. He did not find the German team how to stop Lamine. Kovac removed Adeyemi so that his left side had more help, but the canterano did not find opposition equally. The difference was that if he had previously been very active and less successful, in the second act he was as successful as active, also deciding when he played haggling when to focus or when to stop the play. With a heel cleaned an action, or with a pass left Fermín running in the direction of the goal, so that Lewandowski achieved double after the Fermín pass, the one chosen by Flick for the mediapunta. He played a great game, very active, generating danger, moving between the lines, pressing with enthusiasm. In Barcelona, the men shined above, and it was what gave meaning to the goals, which makes the difference. What gives meaning to the game has more to do with what happens a little further back. He knew how to defend himself in general the Catalan team, except for the suffocon of the end of the first half, with Iñigo Martínez de leader and all involved. Frenkie de Jong, a footballer on whom he sometimes weighs defensive doubt, signed a fantastic game in that sense, with continuous aid and entering with determination in the duels. His ankle problems are no longer even in the trunk of memories. The third goal came out of his clearance to the edge of the area.
Barça’s trio was associated differently to get a room so much. Who finished off this occasion was Lamine, with an extraordinary resource, putting the toe before the defender, as he will have done a thousand times in the neighborhood. Punishment Barcelona in that section The despair of his rival, who still looked for a goal that gave him hope. But even the changes went well for Flick, because two of the players who entered, Fermín and Araujo, defended three clear options. Even Ansu Fati had a few minutes in the final stretch.
