The “Barcelona” team disappointed their fans in the away match against “Rayo Vallecano.” This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
During the game, Olmo missed many opportunities, resembling mistakes typical of Kerzhakov. Rafinha also made similar errors.
The state of Barcelona’s defense in the match deserves special attention. Although the poor quality of the pitch was said to have affected the result, it is not enough to justify the poor performance.
The “Euro-Football.ru” publication tried to highlight the “Barcelona” players who were less criticized or not criticized at all in this match. The game ended 1:1, and Barcelona’s central midfielder Frenkie de Jong showed his level of play.
He was quite effective on the field, winning ten out of thirteen duels and showing 91 percent accuracy in passing. De Jong lost the ball eight times, while Pedri lost it 17 times with 82 percent accuracy.
De Jong made five ball recoveries and took the ball from opponents seven times, while Pedri lagged far behind in these statistics. Yamin Lamin scored a penalty in the first half, putting his team ahead on the scoreboard.
He did not leave the game and constantly pushed forward. If Barcelona had won, it would have been thanks to Lamin’s efforts.
He made many passes to Eric Garcia, but Garcia could not correct his mistakes and missed many opportunities. The best player was the newly joined goalkeeper Joan Garcia.
He saved five crucial balls in the game, protecting his team. Despite the problems that arose in the defensive line, Garcia performed his duties excellently.
Thanks to his efforts, Barcelona avoided a heavy defeat. Without him, the result would have been much worse for the team.
Joan Garcia was rated the highest among Barcelona players in this match. His play played an important role in strengthening the team’s defense.
Overall, the team’s performance caused much criticism, but some players tried to fulfill their responsibilities.
