4-0! Lewandowski was dumbfounded, Barcelona made a big kill, rose to 2nd in La Liga, and waited for Real Madrid to make a mistake
As the reigning champions of La Liga, Barcelona have been disappointing for much of the season, and Xavi has also announced that he will be leaving at the end of the season. However, as Lewandowski regained his form, Barcelona continued to grab points after entering February, and the big dark horse Girona suffered two consecutive defeats, and the red and blue team are only two points away from the second place in the standings. After the Champions League match against Napoli in midweek, Barcelona ushered in the 26th round of La Liga after less than 48 hours of rest, sitting at home against Getafe, such a schedule made Xavi quite unhappy. Lewandowski was dumb in this game, but Raphinha passed, Felix and De Jong each made a contribution, Fermin added the icing on the cake in stoppage time, Barcelona won 4-0 and temporarily came to the second place in the standings, only 5 points away from Real Madrid at the top of the table.
Xavi continued to play the full line-up, Ter Stegen continued to guard the goal, Kounde played at right-back, and Araujo, Cubasia and Cancelo formed a back four, De Jong, Christensen and Gundogan sat in the midfield, the in-form Lewandowski burst forward, Raphinha and the returning Felix were separated on both sides.
After the start of the game, Barcelona used delicate technology and skillful cooperation to fully control the ball. And Getafe is also very wise, patiently playing with the opponent through defensive counter-attacks, and the tempo on the field is not fast. However, in the 20th minute, Kounde sent a penetrating long pass over the top from the back, Raphinha understood that he would insert it from behind, and calmly pushed it into the bottom left corner in the face of the goalkeeper, Barcelona broke the deadlock, 1-0!
In the 33rd minute, Barcelona played a quick counterattack again, Kounde advanced a cross from the right, Lewandowski grabbed the point and kicked the goal, and Felix at the back point was too dragged in front of the goal, and was chased back by the opponent. Three minutes later, Kounde crossed diagonally from the right and Felix cut forward to get a one-on-one shot, but the shot was too rough and the shot was blocked by the Getafe goalkeeper.
Immediately after Gundogan split the ball in the middle, Felix received it from the left and fired a low shot that was too straight and was still confiscated by David Soria. In the 41st minute, Lewandowski retreated to respond, sent a scalpel through the situation, Raphinha strode straight into the penalty area, and shot away in the face of the goalkeeper. In the first 45 minutes, Barcelona created 8 shots on goal, but only scored 1 goal!
Yibian fought again, and Barcelona quickly expanded its results. In the 53rd minute, Raphinha passed through from the right, Christensen cut in a calm cross from behind, and Felix flanked and pushed it into the net. Felix scored his fifth La Liga goal of the season, a new high in the past three seasons, and Barcelona led 2-0.
Three minutes later, Gundogan went straight through the middle, Lewandowski turned and led the ball into the penalty area, and single-handedly pushed the far corner, but unfortunately it was offside. However, in the 61st minute, Barcelona still scored the third goal, Gundogan's advance in the middle was blocked, Raphinha cut off the ball, selflessly knocked back in the penalty area, and De Jong followed up and hit the goal, officially killing the game. According to statistics, De Jong's goal is also the 11,000th goal in the history of the Barcelona team.
In stoppage time, Fermin scored again, and the score was fixed at 4-0! After this game, Barcelona ushered in two consecutive league wins, and with the advantage of the first game, it overtook Girona by 1 point, and temporarily rose to the second place in the standings, 5 points away from Real Madrid.
Barcelona is menacing, Real Madrid cannot turn a blind eye, and the Galaxy has been hit by injuries in recent times, Bellingham has not returned, Real Madrid's attacking ability has been tested, and in the face of Sevilla, which is in a resurgence of form, it is not ruled out that there will be the possibility of losing points.
