FC Barcelona won against Borussia Dortmund, this Wednesday, in the quarter -final first leg of the Champions League ( -).
This time, Barça can no longer hide. Leader of Liga, winner of the Spanish Super Cup against the Madrid enemy and finalist of the COPA against this same Real, the Catalan club emerges especially among the best students of this new Champions League formula, to the point of becoming one of the big favorites in the final coronation. It was still necessary to prove it again on the green rectangle.
The Hansi Flick team tackled this first round against Borussia Dortmund by bombing the chest, but it should not underestimate a German club which knew how to rely on its European culture to climb mountains-therefore ask PSG last season. If the poster therefore had trap matches for Barça, the Liga leader has respected his standing. Brilliantly.
Lamine Yamal struck again.
All eyes were on the offensive trio Yamal-Lewandowski-Raphinha, with the virtuosity of the 17-year-old Spanish prodigy, coupled in the impressive state of form of the Brazilian and the effectiveness of a Lewandowski galvanized by his reunion with the club that revealed it. Once again, the three Barça triggers made the powder speak to make the difference. It's very simple: there was only for them.
Barça carried by his dream attack
Light came from Raphinha. The Brazilian striker benefited from a good work of Cubarsi on a stopped kick to unlock the meeting of a surface fox goal, at the end of the crampons (1-0, 25th). An opening of the score which has not really changed the configuration of the match. With significant possession and a high block, Barça did not denounce its principles in the face of a BVB which expected to crisscross the ground to close the lines. But these blaugrana have too much talent in store to stop on a low block. And the men of Hansi Flick have yet proven it by unrolling in the second half.
Robert Lewandowski endorsed the executioner's costume to remember the good memories of the Ruhr, first benefiting from an untenable raphinha caviar to place a victorious helmet (2-0, 48th), then concluding a marvel of counter (3-0, 66th). And yamal in all of this? The gifted Catalan could not be outdone. So he was responsible for adding the little cherry to this already delicious cake, with a sharp left-wing on a new opening of a raphinha which had the pattern size (4-0, 77th).
The BVB has undergone this scenario from start to finish, even going so far as to allow its luck in a highly fruitful time after the opening of the score, and symbolized by the lack of realism of Guirassy (36th, 45th, 45th+1). The walking was quite high, quite simply. Barcelona, for its part, continues to climb by placing a foot in half on its staircase towards the summits. There will only be beautiful people, then. The stars race continues.
