The 2021-22 La Liga season continued, with Barca and Sevilla playing the 4th round of make-up matches, and after a full match, the two teams played a 1-1 score, which made them unhappy. Sevilla missed 3 points, still five points behind the top of the table Real Madrid, ranking 2nd in La Liga, Barca is 28 points, ranking 7th in La Liga, up one place, but there is still a 2-point gap from the 4th-place Vallecano, 15 points less than Real Madrid. Such a result is good news for Real Madrid and Ancelotti!
Barca have played very generally this season, and the team has also undergone a change of coach, however, after Xavi took office, the situation of this team has not really improved. In this match, Barca face the strong Sevilla, who is ranked 2nd in La Liga and is the opponent of Real Madrid competing for the league title, while Barca need to fight for the top 4. In this game, the game between the two sides was played in heavy rain, and the competition was very fierce.
Judging from the starting lineup of the two sides, Barca also lined up a 433 formation, with Ter Stegen as the goalkeeper, Araujo, Pique, Garcia and Alba as defenders, Busquets, De Jong and Abd appearing in midfield, and Hutgra, Garvey and Dembele as tridents. On Sevilla's side, Rakitic started, anti-old owner Barca, and he reunited with his former teammate Xavi.
The first goal of the match occurred in the 32nd minute, when Rakitic opened a corner kick, Gomez grabbed a penalty inside the box and after seeing his disciples score, Sevilla coach Lopetegui celebrated happily in the heavy rain, and the players also huddled together, the score came 1-0, Sevilla took the lead on the field. In the 45th minute, Barca equalised, Rakitic drove a corner kick, Araujo's header broke the goal, the score became a 1-1 draw, and the two sides returned to the same running line.
In the second half of stoppage time, 6 minutes later, in the 96th minute, Alba got a long-range shot outside the box, his shot angle was too right, and the Sevilla goalkeeper got the ball, which made Barca miss the opportunity to kill, and both teams took 1 point each. Such a result, neither side was satisfied, and after the game whistle blew, Pique and Alba had regret on their faces. Barca ended the last game of 2021, this year for the La Liga giants, it is really unbearable, Messi left, the team's record is not ideal.
