He Barcelona sang El Alirón to the first grabbed Lamine Yamal’s left. In a derby against thick and tense Spanish, The teenager broke up with his favorite goal To give the Barça the national triple: Supercopa, Cup and, now, the League, the trophy that rewards the long season. It is the number 28 of its history.
But in addition to the titles, Barcelona has recovered self -confidence, with a team of many young people, led by Lamine. The end was already a footballer more than present, but It has definitely become a worldwide phenomenonand also seem to feel comfortable in that role. The “is not a child” that Flick said to define Lamine in the previous one did not refer to what he puts in the identity card, who points out that until July he will not be of age, he referred to what he shows about the field, more and more mature in his actions and without fear of assuming responsibility.
Barcelona began the game with low pulsations and Espanyol was about to penalize it. In the first ten minutes, he managed to get out of Barca pressure on a couple of occasions to leave two players facing the goal. Urko finished off too crossed and thrown with very tight intent this time. Edu Expósito was the owner of the center of the field and threw his teammates before the advanced defense of Barcelona, formed by an almost unpublished couple, Araujo and Cubarsí, although the Uruguayan had to be replaced in the start of the second part. It has not been his year. The Barcelona team had to run back a lot, but the key, as Flick is often explained, is general. If the strikers and the media do not squeeze with order, the rival exceeds lines and the spaces are there.
It cost Barcelona to take control of the situation. But it was an insulso domain. It didn’t seem that Flick’s boys were playing the first option to be champions, Something passive before an opponent who defended Wonder And that the right side of the Barca attack was very well covered, where Lamine Yamal could not face and move forward almost because apart from Romero and Cabrera, Padado also monitored the area. Espanyol no longer came to the attack, but every time he could leave, the feeling of danger was latent. Barça tried with a couple of almost impossible millimeter actions or with a distant shot of Pedri, a symptom that they were not playing well and other paths had to be explored. Only in the disorder they gave the impression of approaching the goal. When they wore a divided ball, or with a rebound, and Espanyol was a little dislodged, but they did not know the Pedri and Olmo situation, with Raphinha, throwing many unmarks, although not very participatory, and increasingly in the central area to gather players out there, without success.
It was not the brightest match in Barcelona, which has reached this final stretch of the championship somewhat fair, and has had to defend many fair results, which can be interpreted positively since it has managed to get them forward. Just needed Lamine to have a hole on one occasion, only a small hole, to be able to make dribble out and generate the possibility of the shot. With a little freedom, he could shoot the squadmake the ball draw the perfect curve. Joel García’s stretch, who is doing a brilliant season, was far from arriving. Lamine was in the goal and in the controversy of the day, The expulsion of Cabrera For a swipe in the stomach when I wanted to protect the ball. It was after review in the VAR, although the action is open to any interpretation, and all can be valid.
With ten either a Espanyol that did not stop trying, and that Christensen, Cubarsí and Eric García They managed to contain, in addition to Szczesny with a stop to Roberto. Fermín put the icing at the end and Barcelona could already celebrate the League title. It is the second that conquers Lamine Yamal, but is the first of the “Barça de Lamine”.
