Barcelona still in the same mood as the past season, they have brilliant games, and other games like this one where they lack of all, if you want to fight in europe you cant have this bad games.

About the league is gonna be very fun to watch this fight, 4 teams in the fight.
It's a shame when a brand is unable to change this season to be able to appear consistent, if their performance is good but all of that is useless if they can't be consistent, let alone in the UCL in La Liga alone it will be very detrimental for them when their competitors can be consistent and they will increasingly left behind.

However, this result was quite lucky for Barcelona even though they were already 2 goals behind but in the end they were able to equalize it at 2-2 and since several seasons ago, Granada has always been a difficult opponent for Barcelona.

I won't hold anything against Granada for allowing Barcelona to equalise and share the point today. It is extremely difficult for a small team to take the lead early in the game and keep it until the conclusion. Granada was only trying to avoid losing all of their points to Barcelona after being fortunate to score early in the game. The pressure will be on them because they have decided to defend for the remainder of the game. If they hadn't defended and sought to score more goals, it could have gone the other way, and Barcelona could have easily won them today. Barcelona is a superior team than them and all hopes was in Barcelona to win the match. Granada played impressively well today and didn’t allow Barcelona to get that three points from them today.
Once again, Barcelona was only able to draw with lower level teams, a total of three times Barcelona have been held to draws by lower level teams, previously they were also held to draws by Mallorca and Getafe. Xavi must consider this result as a warning that it is so easy to lose points with a weak team, drawing three times means the same as Barcelona having lost twice because they have lost 6 important points. As a result of losing two important points at Granada headquarters, Barcelona failed to move up to second place because they still lost on points from Girona.

I saw the wrong decision that Xavi made in this game, he benched Araujo and played Kounde in the position that Araujo usually plays, even though Kounde was a left-footed center defender but Xavi forced him to play in Araujo's position. Granada efforts this time were successful, even though they failed to maintain their lead, a draw was enough for those who have performed less than optimally this season.

But playing with class is one thing, using class to eventually score important goals is another. I know you are right, but this might be the small difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid right now. Real Madrid is highly effective and they do score the one goal they need to win the game in the last minute thanks to Jude Bellingham. They are also better in their defense, which is surprising as in recent years Barcelona was the team that had the stronger defense. But I believe that Bellingham is the magic key element in Real Madrid's gameplay for the time being. Barcelona has more difficulties to make up for players who are missing games for either injury or suspension reasons. It is still not beautiful all the to watch Real Madrid play, but they win their games and it doesn't matter to them how and when. Yet Barcelona is still the only team without a loss this season.

To raise the excitement in time, at the end of October (28th) Barcelona will be facing Real Madrid in Camp Nou. That's the game I am looking forward to as I really want to know whether we finally have a high level clasico again.
The absence of their striker Lewandowski was really felt today cause Barcelona needed a very sharp strike to put in the crosses and Ferran Torres impact wasn't really felt in the match, I was very suprised to see Barcelona concede 2 goals before 30mins of the game, Barcelona really struggled to get a comeback in the game before one of their rising youngsters Yamal scored in the extra time of the 1st half.

 One thing I like about Barcelona is that they were still pressing and dominating the game even while they were losing and I believe that's what gingered them to sit up and scored another goal, well I  expected them to win the game based on the position where Granada is on the table and they even got a more talented players in their team.

Barcelona players have 80% of the ball possession of the match. Barcelona is playing very well. But even then they are unable to break down Granada's defence. Barcelona's chances of winning this match are very low. Maybe they will be able to draw the match in the end. Key players like Lelandowski, Pedri and de Jong are missing from Barcelona's squad today. Because of this, Barcelona was behind in the first half.
It is frustrating to see how Barcelona have played this match. They had a lot of possession and had more shots on target, but failed to score a winning goal. Everyone plays very well, but Joao Felix has played with class. He did everything possible to win a game, but I think the effects are due to the lack of Robert Lawandoski. Their attack players play very well, but Lewandowski seems to be supportive of winning the club because, due to his absence, the club felt weak, especially in the attack position. So the Xavi need to place more emphasis on attacking positions after the recovery of Robert Lawandoski. Joao Felix was used as a center player, like Lawandoski, because he is one player who has the ability to do it with his best performance.
Now the league titles are in real Madrid hands if he can maintain his winning competency for the upcoming matches in Seville and Barcelona on October 28. And this is the match whose league title depends on who's winning, so no one has to stop him from winning La Liga titles.

It was a big disappointment to see Barcelona struggling that much against Granada. They got even 2-0 behind in the first thirty minutes of the game I mean. It wasn't easy for Barcelona to even equalize the score. Joao Felix was nearly going to be the savior for his team however his goal was disallowed by VAR due to offside.  Sad

Interestingly Xavi didn't use Felix at the centre. He was again on the left wing and we saw Torres in the middle. I mean Torres is technically a winger rather than a striker. Maybe Felix and him both would have been more effective by a change in position.

Im so happy with the result, im not barcelona bettor but madrid was giving me much more confidence. Waiting for ancellotti to make this club as the best club in the world. Im sorry barcelona but it seems like that this season may be owning by king madrid.
The consistentcy from real madrid is key.  hala madrid. barcelona keep play use old ball tactic which is outdated.

The pair Vinicius Jr and Bellingham have the potential to help Real Madrid this season. Vinicius is positioned as a striker alongside Rodrygo in a 4-4-2 formation, with Bellingham supporting right behind. Before Bellingham joined Real Madrid. Vinicius Jr. and Benzema are the club's strong attacking spearheads. I believe Vinicius Jr. will continue to help Real Madrid in the future if there are no more injuries.
It would be great if Real Madrid could recruit Mbappé. I think Vinicius, Mbappé, and Bellingham will be the next legendary trio.
Of course I am sure that if these three star players are at Real Madrid it will make Real Madrid strength even stronger in the Spanish league so it is possible that Real Madrid will not be easily beaten by any club including in the Champions League.
And if Vinicius Jr, Bellingham, and Mbappe are able to work together compactly in a club like Real Madrid, of course Real Madrid will have the opportunity to win in La Liga and can win the title in the Champions League again with the help of these three star players
I hope Mbappe can joined next winter and with these three star player Real Madrid will be able to maintain its consistency until the Champions League finals.

Mbappé can do everything, is spectacular, and would be an excellent signing. In a team, it is crucial to have players with speed and strength. Mbappé and Vinicius both have this. Bellingham will be the perfect supporter at the back.
Real Madrid needs to aim for a superior squad to advance to an era of dominance. I believe Real Madrid will not let striker Mbappé slip away. Most likely, they will get him at a low price in the next transfer season. This trio will dominate the European skies.

There was plenty of time to score but Barca failed to do so. Only 2 goals and a draw was ok for both teams. Honestly that was the fair result, both teams didn't play good enough to get 3 points. Barcelona found too many positions but couldn't finish well. They almost end up losing the game when the ball hit the post. I'm not sure if we should say this as 2 points loss for Barca or 1 point win. The thing is they are behind the race now.
Girona is irrelevant in the long run, only point gap with Real Madrid is important.
Barcelona recorded 22 shots and 81% ball possession, which is why they played quite well in this match. Joao had 5 shots in this match but he really struggled to finish perfectly. I think if there was no Lewandowksi Barcelona would find it difficult to win and also this match could be said to be luck for them not to accept defeat. A draw is not what we hope for because statistically they control all areas but only have difficulty scoring goals.

They have to think about their distance from Real Madrid every week because if Barcelona fails in the next match then Real Madrid will be quite safe at being at the top of the standings. In this match Barcelona without De Jong and Lewandowski, it seems like that was the biggest drawback they felt because they failed to get full points. I call this match a match they made to waste the opportunity to get 3 points and 1 point does not make us relieved.

Barcelona would have won this game if not that Felix's goal was denied for an offside against his teammates, they played very well and were able to avoid defeat despite loosing with two goals but they will have to manage the third position on the league this week with Real Madrid in first and Girona in second. Granada are very poor in the way they play, very unorganized and have a very poor mentality, the mentality which small teams have which is to get the advantage, then stop attacking and try to defend the lead they have. It does not work well all the time because then you invite all the pressure the other team can bring, and that is exactly what Granada did.

I won't hold anything against Granada for allowing Barcelona to equalise and share the point today. It is extremely difficult for a small team to take the lead early in the game and keep it until the conclusion. Granada was only trying to avoid losing all of their points to Barcelona after being fortunate to score early in the game.

Barcelona is a superior team than them and all hopes was in Barcelona to win the match. Granada played impressively well today and didn’t allow Barcelona to get that three points from them today.

Barcelona didn't have many of their key players today, so I wasn't surprised by this draw. I think it was a valid game despite the absence of important players, but in order to be the best in the league and move to the first place in the season, they should not have so many draws.

Now they definitely had to win El-Clasico to play for the top. I think the transfer of İlkay Gündoğan is a good transfer. He is a central midfielder who is very compatible with the Barcelona chemistry, and is a player who always thinks of good passes.

And just like that in only 2 weeks Barcelona lost their advantage and their 1st place in LaLiga in favor of Real Madrid and more than this , they are sitting ducks on 3rd place with ATL.Madrid being only 2 points behind them. Tonight , Barca really the same game they always do but didn't have the necessary luck to get points as Granada stroke twice in 1st half which made the game a bit harder for Barca.

Even with this , a draw is better than a defeat and I low how Felix played as had the biggest note from all Barca players.

Certain Barcelona will not get it easy tonight still on, the win is sure they're without se quality players though but victory would be sure at the end of the game.
A sure win, it doesnt look like it for Barcelona. It is now 2:0 for Granada, whats going on? Zaragoza has scored its second goal today. Edit A few minutes ago now the 2:1 by Lamine Yamal, that had to be so that Barca does not lose motivation after halftime. I think there will be at least two more goals and new players will come in. This will be a good 45 minutes.

Very annoying for Barcelona, ​​because after being 2-0 behind they managed to get to 2-2 and Joao Felix even scored a goal in the 90+4 minute which was disallowed for foul play. In general, Barcelona played much better in the second half and they almost managed to turn the game around, and all of that without Lewandowski.
Barcelona tonight wasn't playing at their best tonight and if not for Granada's decline after scoring the first two goals of the game, Barcelona wouldn't have gotten anything from the game tonight. Granada wanted to defend their two early goals instead of trying to score more and that was why they weren't able to pick all three points from the game.
That being said, Lamine Yamal made history tonight by becoming the youngest player in history to score a Spanish La Liga game and that I think is a great milestone and record for the teenager

Conceding two goals first seemed to make Barcelona feel quite frustrated and even though before the first half ended they managed to score 1 goal, it was still less than expected. Barcelona was only able to score 1 additional goal in the second half and that only made the score 2-2 until the match ended.
It was surprising that Barcelona got a conceded goal in minute 1'. Then, they got another conceded goal in minute 29'. 2 conceded goals in the first half of the match indicated that Barcelona defenders weren't ready 100% for the match or they were decreasing their performance now. Another problem is Lewandowski's injured, that makes Barcelona couldn't make an effective attack like usual. So, Barcelona failed to win and only succeed to score 2 goals for a draw result in this match.

Even though this draw is quite a detrimental result for Barcelona because they are increasingly lagging behind Real Madrid who are now in the top position and Barcelona only sits in 3rd position, even below Girona.
Yep. This draw result makes Real Madrid leading the La Liga standings with 3 difference points. Even Girona can be in 2nd place now. Barcelona needs to stop their bad result if they want to return to 1st place again. They are now in the 3rd place, they need to reduce the point gap.

Unpredictable based on all your prediction about easily for Barcelona winning over Granada, first half seems excited with Granada lead 2-1 from Barcelona are favorite team for winning this match. Have impressive achievement by Granada on first half with success managed 2-0 before Lamine Yamal score one goals on last minutes of first half. Absent of Robert Lewandowski have bigger problem for Barcelona but left second half and how possibility with Barcelona come back or get loss their three points on away match against Granada.
If loss three points will make Barcelona have gap 4 points behind Real Madrid in current standings La Liga position.
With the results that Barcelona got in today's match, they failed to shift Girona's ranking in second place and also opened up the opportunity for Atletico Madrid to move Barcelona's ranking because Atletico Madrid has 1 match remaining due to being postponed. But this week we have seen the strength of Girona who were able to close this week in second place in the standings, they were better than Barcelona this week because Girona managed to get 3 points while Barcelona had 1 point.

So, look at the match between Granada vs Barcelona. Indeed, before the match started, we were sure that Barcelona could win this match because the opponent was a team at the bottom of the standings. But in the match, Granada was able to play quite well by scoring an early goal, even at the end of the first half, Granada managed to lead the match with a score of 2-1. But unfortunately for Gradana they were not able to play well enough in the second half which allowed Barcelona to equalize through Roberto's goal in the 85th minute.

There is no denying that in this match Granada's quick surprise attack was very good. They took advantage of Barcelona's defensive laxity in the 1st minute by making a quick attack that made Barcelona have to rack their brains more when they were 1 goal behind in the first minute which made them intensify their attacks and that made the defense weaken.
This is a very good result for Granada but not for Barcelona because even though they got 1 point but with this result their margin with Madrid has increased because now they must be 3 points behind.
It is very unfortunate when looking at Granada's current condition 3 points should be able to get Barcelona in this match.
