La Liga giants Barcelona after the curtain was raised in the new season, the overall performance was bad, directly let the team management make up their minds to change the coach in the middle of the season, the legendary star Xavi was in danger, shouldering the responsibility of leading the team out of the trough, after returning to camp Nou, Xavi made this team have a significant change, before also returning to the top four of the table, saw the hope of locking up next season's Champions League qualification, in the twenty-fourth round of the league, Barcelona ushered in the Catalan derby, away to challenge Espanyol, in this game, De Perry's blitzkrie helped Barcelona get off to a fantastic start, but the home team scored one goal each in the first and second halves to overtake the score, and in the final stages of injury time, substitute Luc De Jong saved the team, and his goal helped Barcelona draw 1-1 with Espanyol!
Although Barcelona's combat effectiveness has long been unable to match the peak, but compared with the Spaniards who returned to La Liga this season, they still have a certain advantage in strength, after the start of the game, Barcelona took the initiative, and in the second minute of the first half took the lead to break the deadlock on the field, Alba received the ball on the left, sent a cross, ambushed in the back point of the unguarded De Perry volley, rewriting the score to 1-0.
But Barcelona, which has the advantage of absolute possession, then fell into the situation of being invincible, but the Spaniards repeatedly threatened the opponent's goal with a sharp counterattack, and in the 39th minute, Duddell, after receiving De Thomas's return ball, blasted out an inexplicable world wave to help the home team equalize, and in the 63rd minute of the second half, Dadel returned to the peach and sent a long pass, and Garcia, who returned to La Liga in the new season, inexplicably turned around and gave De Thomas a single knife ball opportunity when defending. The latter calmly pushed to help Espanyol to rebound 2-1, due to this weekend's Premier League, Maguire had another low-level mistake, and Garcia's magical brain circuit, let many fans call it La Liga Maguire, which shows his disappointment.
In the case of the score behind, Xavi frequently dispatched troops, hoping to change the decline, injury time, the winter window returned to the team Traore's cross from the right, substitute Luc de Jong pressed two defenders, the head hammer broke the goal tenaciously to tie the score, after this campaign, the Spaniards in the last 24 games with Barcelona, only achieved a record of 6 draws and 18 losses, still a win is difficult to find.
