Although the followers had been watching Dmitrovic’s purpose, the sport started in Peña’s space, nice in a one-on-one with Munir and instantly defeated after the nook by a headbutt from Sergio González. The centre-back’s soar was as clear because the block that neutralized Eric García was, the one new addition to the lineup signed by Marcus Sorg, starter on the bench attributable to Flick’s suspension. The followers had been ready for Araujo’s reappearance and Eric García got here out to let Cubarsi relaxation. The crew was distracted, as is customary after they really feel superior, and the followers had been arguing after shouts of “Barça yes, Laporta no” got here from the again reserved for the Animation Stand and now occupied by company. A deal with by Neyou on Lamine’s injured ankle ended up driving the Barcelona followers gathered in Montjuïc loopy.

The bodily soccer of Leganés and its defensive group, supported by a line of three centre-backs, the buildup of tactical fouls, unsettled the Blaugrana, who appeared very uncomfortable, trailing on the scoreboard, upset by the contemplative refereeing of Quintero González. Barça attacked in a stampede, too quick and imprecise, shallow and by no means clear within the final move in opposition to a rival who had taken refuge of their subject since 0-1. The Barcelona followers didn’t proceed their recreation attributable to their lack of finesse and the bravery of Leganés. The match was consumed with out rhythm, with many losses of time and a stunning rigidity within the cities of Montjuïc. Only Raphinha was lucid within the huddle attributable to Leganés. Lewandowski, as impatient as he was dazed, missed the mark on as much as three events, decreased to 2 by the wonderful Dmitrovic.

Not even Dani Olmo was capable of rating, erratic in contact and in a few straightforward photographs, assisted by Lamine, the one one able to taking part in as a winger in a crew that was too centrifuged, pending the Casadó-Pedri-Olmo triangle. The Blaugrana could not discover any openings and after they might put collectively the shot they did not give attention to the purpose properly or they could not take down the solvent Dmitrovic. The state of affairs was so advanced for the Blaugrana that they didn’t enable themselves to present the limping Lamine a relaxation. Barça attacked in a single path, with out opening on the edges, and Leganés held onto the sphere very properly, didn’t enable house and defended itself splendidly with out the ball, additionally properly refreshed by their coach Borja Jiménez.

Despite the outcome, Sorg acted like Flick and eliminated Lewandowski and Olmo when it got here to discovering kickers to show round a match that had no answer since Munir’s shot. The modifications elevated the confusion and the crew obtained so unhealthy that it hardly generated any alternatives, neither by class nor by dedication, neither individually nor collectively, subdued by a Leganés crew that caught up with a purpose from a set piece at first to assert a historic victory in Montjuic.
