Barcelona defeated Osasuna 2-1. Barcelona, who struggled to beat Osasuna away from home, played worse than I expected. Although they took the lead with a goal late in the first half, it was Osasuna who had more scoring chances in the second half. In the 76th minute, Osasuna equalized with a goal. Catena was red carded for Osasuna and Barcelona scored from a penalty, which was the decisive event in the match.

Lewandowksi isn't good like his was, I think his performance is declining in this season. If Joao Felix can show a good performance, I believe Barcelona will sign him to replace Lewandowski's position.

Osasuna is really good in counter attack, they can maximize their chance to score a goal. While Barcelona only keep passing in order to make them looks more dominant and giving pressure to Osasuna.

This season hasn't favoured Lewandoski because he hasn't score much goals in this season. Out of four matches he has only scored one,and a penalty that he played yesterday to make it two,compared to his performance last season. He did very great in Bayern and I think that he hasn't really understood Barca playing pattern or their bond is not yet strong. It is normal that some players don't perform too well when they change leagues. I am still hoping to see the best of him and I will also love to see more goals from him during his stay in Barca.

Despite this, Lewandowski did not appear to be the best rated player of the game but he was the worst rated player based on the aiscore. Kounde and De Jong were the two players who had the highest ratings in that match, but I agree that overall Barcelona didn't perform as good as expected in that match.

I'm yet to see the best of Lewandowski in Barcelona, he's not played up to the standard he did at Bayern Munich that made Barcelona bring him into their Squad, this is a player that was known for scoring numerous goals in a single season, getting hat-tricks in several matches but at Barcelona he's not scored like that even with enough chances created for him.
 He has a lot of good quality players built around him so I expect alot from a player of such calibre to deliver his team against lesser clubs, well thanks to his penalty goal that made them win Osasuna and I believe the goal he scored would increase his morale to perform better in their next match and start scoring more goals as expected by him, if Lewandowski fails to improve before the winter window it would leave Xavi with no option but to seek another alternative in that position.

In the Spanish League today Osasuna vs Barcelona between the two teams, Barcelona team won the match by scoring 2 goals. Barcelona team did not perform well in the first half of the game. However, J. Koundé scored the first goal in the 45+1 minute. Then after halftime, Osasuna team  Player E. Ávila scored a goal in 76 minutes.A.  Catena got 1 red cards in 84 minutes. Lewandowski scored the number 2 goal in 85 minutes to win the match. But in this match I expected Barcelona team to perform better but Barcelona didn't.

Yep, Barcelona still hasn't shown a slick performance in every game. but this victory was indeed deserved by them. If Lewandowski had not been tackled in the penalty area, the probability of a goal being scored was very high. However, due to a violation, Barcelona were ultimately awarded a penalty kick. and Lewandowski as executor, did not waste this opportunity. you could say, Barcelona was lucky in this match.

Meanwhile, we cannot rule out Ossasuna. Even though Barcelona dominated the match, the home team was able to put up quite an exciting fight. also, they had 3 shots on target out of 11 attempted shots. 1 big chance, 7 shots from inside the box. the most important thing is that Barcelona still won full points, so that they stay close to the point distance from Real Madrid.
Now, Joao Cancelo's presence will have a big impact on the Barcelona squad. I have confidence that Cancelo will be included in the starting eleven for the Barcelona squad. Likewise with Felix, for the time being he will start playing on the bench. but if he displays a good performance, Xavi will give him the opportunity to play on the wing. theoretically, Barcelona should be more competitive. because, now Barcelona has complete players on all fronts. The problem now lies with Xavi, how he will implement his system so that his team plays with high performance.

Barcelona actually played well in this match, still they were very lucky. If it wasn't for Lucky, I'm sure it wouldn't have been possible for Barcelona to get 3 points in this match. Barcelona got the penalty opportunity in the 85th minute, and their overall performance was good, their match strategy was also good, and all players also tried their best to perform well. I can see Barcelona has 70% ball possession in this match. Although Barcelona performed well but I thought their attacking performance was a bit slow. I know Lewandowski scored a goal from the penalty spot, however his performance was not good enough. As Lewandowski is the most experienced player in the attack, the team's expectations are high from Lewa in every match.

As always, great possession of the ball (71%) with only 4 shots on target. I continue to believe that all this comes from the coach and Xavi is trying to implement a scheme that has not been working for a long time. They got lucky yesterday, but that won't always happen, plus when we say that Barcelona got lucky against Osasuna, things are bad.
Judging by the way Lewandowski started the season modestly (and how often Bellingham scores), he does not shine to become a top scorer this season.

There are no easy wins for Barcelona this week, and neither is Real Madrid. Barcelona struggled to beat Osasuna, Real Madrid also struggled to beat Getafe. But the question; Why is Barcelona the one who tends to be noticed and said to be bad when Real Madrid also has great difficulty winning every match?

Real Madrid were lucky to be able to win game after game because Bellingham was really able to take advantage of goal opportunities, but that doesn't cover anything from the fact that they also have difficulty winning them. The same thing about Barcelona, ​​but both of these teams were able to maximize the match to get maximum points in the last 3 matches. The positive results that both La Liga teams got on Matchday 4 were really tough, but they deserved it.

Girona's late win meant they managed to secure full points at home against Las Palmas. I had thought this match would end in a draw without any goals because judging by the statistics the two teams were quite even. Even Las Palmas has slightly better ball possession than Girona. But the only goal that was scored came in the 88th minute and Cristian Portu saved Girona from a draw. Now Girona is increasingly confident in 2nd place in the standings and is only 2 points behind Real Madrid.

Barcelona again lucky in this match. They still experienced the same problems in their goal productivity even though previously they were quite good, but in this match they had actually the same problems because their finishing problem was really bad. Luckily the violation which led to the penalty put Barcelona ahead and got 3 points which put Barcelona back on track quite well. Now, even though Barcelona is still quite good in the last few matches, of course their problems are still the same now and Xavi still needs to improve his mentality in scoring goals.

I'm yet to see the best of Lewandowski in Barcelona, he's not played up to the standard he did at Bayern Munich that made Barcelona bring him into their Squad, this is a player that was known for scoring numerous goals in a single season, getting hat-tricks in several matches but at Barcelona he's not scored like that even with enough chances created for him.

Real Madrid did a good job signing Bellingham who saved them almost in all their games. Getafe was about to get a point from them and hopefully Bellingham was able to score in extra time. Real Madrid need someone to replace Bellingham in case of injury for real.
For Barcelona, they will play vs Osasuna and they are expected to win. Sevilla which are unstable right now will face Atlético Madrid and I doubt they could get points from them.

A whole season awaits. Will Real Madrid make it through to the top at the end? Time will tell.
