Scoring three goals in the match against Valencia is not an easy thing because Valencia is a club that has played quite maturely this season even though they are still stuck in eighth place in LaLiga, but this has become something that big clubs like Barcelon are quite wary of, because of that could be an obstacle for Barcelona to get full points, but Barcelona was able to get these points even though they had support at home and that is a normal thing in my opinion, although here we can see how sharp Lewandowski is to create a goal at the end of the match and that is at least a changes in this match brought Barcelona to full points in week 33..

I wanted to say that Barcelona might just have their regular display in that match but then I remember Real Madrid has some matches to be played before they can be call the Champions of Laliga for this season and for this reason I think Barcelona will come with a full force to eliminate Girona but since Girona are hosting Barcelona, they might also coem with a surprises in the bag to deal.witb Barcelona, it's always this kind of matches that slap on the face, we shouldn't get too comfortable by Barcelona performance.


It was very bad of Barcelona to allow Girona to beat them in their own home but I geues then they weren't really in the form like that but this can be corrected now otherwise this statistic result is going to be a bench mark for people after this season, they will always says that Barcelona is below Girona in Laliga, this is why they need to win this match by all means.

Although conceding 2 goals, Barcelona players began to dominate the game in the 2nd half, with a ball possession of 80% and a total of 27 shot, which was possible after the red card incident for Valencia. During the match, Barcelona's defense was nothing to write home about as some of their defenders seemed to make costly mistakes that could have jeopardized the team's chance of getting the title.

 In that regard, more effort has to be put in by the team to successfully attain the title they so desire. Also, Barca might still be able to maintain the 11 points gap they have below Real Madrid  if they can successfully gain 81% possession of the ball and make 3 goals from Lewandowski, collect 73 points from at least 33 matches. There's still a about 3games left till the season is rounded up.

 The match between Barca and Giroma coming up next week is one to look forward to, considering how Giroma won against Barca last December in a game of 4-2 as the final scores. This upcoming match, is one I'm sure we're all curious as to how the performance of both team will be because of Barca's current weak defense and Girona's decline in performance recently since the beginning of the year.

Regarding Vitor Roque in Barcelona, I have been expecting much more from this player since he joined Barcelona.
Recently some teams tried to hire Brazilian younger talents, Real Madrid did the same thing and it was working for them but it seems Vitor Roque was not a good option for Barcelona. In fact, when Vitor Roque joined Barcelona he was expecting to have much more chance for the game but he couldn't get the chance they wanted to get.
Now even Vitor Roque is thinking of leaving Barcelona if Xavi keeps holding him out of the squad.
Playing play on loan for another team can be a good solution for Vitor Roque with the current situation he has.

Barcelona managed to beat 10 Valencia players. Through Robert Lewandowski's hat trick and Fermin Lopez's goal, Los Cules won 4-2. Disaster struck for Valencia when their goalkeeper Mamardashvili received a red card in the fourth minute of injury time, for touching the ball outside the penalty box. Barcelona took advantage of the superior number of players to attack Valencia's defense in the second half. And this strategy was successful because in the second half Barcelona managed to add two goals scored by Robert Lewandowski and managed to emerge as winners with a final score of 4 - 2. I can conclude that Valencia's defeat was due to a lack of players and Barcelona's aggressive attacks in the second half.

I dont know what to think about this Barcelona, in the yesterday game against Valencia i feel like they not were so solid, with one more man they pushed but they dont play good football at all, it seems like the team is locked on the same way of playing and level, no progress in this season.

The red card received by Giorgi Mamardashvili really made Valencia very disadvantaged in that match. The Valencia goalkeeper probably felt quite panicked at that time. So he makes mistakes that he really shouldn't make. So in the second half Barcelona could really play more comfortably and keep Valencia under pressure. Because playing with 10 players will be very difficult for any team. Even though it is a strong team. But I am quite happy with the result of the match. Because with these results Barcelona returned to 2nd place.

Barcelona and Girona currently only have a very narrow difference in points, namely they only have a difference of 2 points. So in the next match, namely the match where the two of them will meet, namely the Barcelona vs Girona match, the result will indeed determine which team will be ranked 2nd.

Barcelona at the start of the season experienced bad results against Girona. So of course in this match Barcelona will definitely try to get good results. At the start of the season, Barcelona suffered a fairly heavy defeat with a score of 2-4. So now would be the right time for Barcelona to avenge their defeat at that time.

But I think playing with 10 players and having your main goalkeeper get a red card is a nightmare for any team. You play with 10 players and you have a bad final defense because he is the second goalkeeper. I think even if Valencia plays another team that is not from the relegation zone then Valencia will find it difficult to win the game. I don't underestimate the second goalkeeper but with a 2-1 lead I thought the game would end in a draw. I think the opposing coach will try to increase the number of speculative kick attempts.

just like I expected the match went exactly the way I had reason it however if it was a bet I would actually won because I predicted Barcelona to win the match and it ended on there favour so congratulations to them on there victory because that match was actually a determining factor of there progress on the league table because Girona's hope on that match was for Barcelona to either lose or draw the match so that they can be able to lead the second position ones again but it did not work out for them. Actually even if Barcelona managed to win Valencia but they go through difficult time before wining because Valencia was actually out for them on the first half of the match and before the end of the first half they had already scored 2:1 against Barcelona but because of the red card that was issued to Valencia they began to have difficult time copping so Barcelona saw a good opportunity and secure there three points.

This was a very good result for Atlético Madrid because they were able to create a bigger gap between them and Athletic Club. At the same time, they have solidified their position on the fourth on the table. Now the point difference between them is six and I don't think there is actually any chance for Atlético Madrid to actually finish anything down than the fourth position. Actually, I do not think either of these teams are going to change their position from where they are right now. Even though Athletic Club has not been able to win a single match in the last four, I think they will be able to win in the upcoming weeks and hold onto the position that they are in right now. I do not see any hard opponents for either of them in the upcoming matches

I wasn't comfortable with Barcelona's performance to win the game, despite that they have been playing well recently, so I bet on them over 2.5, which the odds is better than the odds given to Barcelona to win the game. I don't think Barcelona would have won the game if weren't for the red card that Valencia's goalkeeper received before the first half. Barcelona dominated throughout the game, Lewandowski scored a hattrick in the second half when he announced before the game that is not leaving the club at the end of the season. Many people say Barcelona defeated Valencia 4:0 those are the goals they should have scored in the Champions League against PSG to qualify for the Semifinal.

Barcelona are playing an amazing game, but I think Xavi should work on their defensive next season. Araujo has made a lot of errors in their games, he caused the penalty against Valencia and he is the reason why Barcelona got eliminated in the Champions League due to the red card he received in the first half.

The first half was not easy for Barcelona even though they played in front of their own supporters. Valencia immediately responded quickly after Fermin Lopez scored the first goal in this match, Hugo Duro managed to make the score equal again after scoring a goal in the 27th minute. Barcelona was trailing 1-2 after Pepelu successfully executed a penalty kick perfectly, but Valencia had to play with 10 players before the referee blew the long whistle to signal the end of the first half. Realizing the superior number of players, Barcelona immediately locked Valencia in their defense area, Barcelona managed to comeback and ended the match with a score of 4-2.

This match was very special for Lewandowski because he managed to score his first hat trick since he first joined Barcelona. Barcelona victory seemed normal because Valencia was short of one player. If Mamardashvili had not been given a red card in this match, perhaps the result would have been different. Several Barcelona players did not perform optimally in this match, Lamine Yamal was seen failing to open the right side several times, Raphinha also appeared under performing which resulted in him being pulled off by Xavi.

Barcelona was still lucky that Lewandowski performed optimally in this game, Barcelona got three goals from heading and one Lewandowski free kick. This victory also made Barcelona return to second place after being overtaken by Girona after scoring three points over Las Palmas. The next match will be very exciting because Barcelona will be away to Girona headquarters, these two teams will beat each other to secure second place. In the previous game, Girona managed to humiliate Barcelona at Camp Nou, will this time Girona defeat Barcelona again and secure second place from Barcelona?

Here, Valencia actually gave a game that wasn't that bad in the first half. They were even able to lead with a score of 1-2 in the first half. But one mistake put them at a disadvantage in the second half because they had to fight by relying on 10 players to face Barcelona who became increasingly aggressive in the second half. And clearly this is something that benefits Barcelona in the second half. So Barcelona scoring 3 goals in the second half is a very normal thing. Maybe if the opponent was not Barcelona but another weak team then maybe Valencia could have maintained their lead. But because the opponent is Barcelona, ​​only fighting with 10 players is clearly a very fatal disadvantage.

So far we often compare players with other players, as well as one coach with another coach without looking at the factors causing their success so far, Xavi and Guardiola are certainly not worthy of our comparison because indeed they have different abilities and intelligence in coaching a team, so far we know Guardiola is a coach who is quite experienced and able to bring the team he coaches to become champions,  The number of trophies he managed to get when coaching Barcelona and Manchester City certainly makes us consider Guardiola a great coach so far.

As for Xavi, it is precisely the novice coach who coached Barcelona so far has only been able to provide one La Liga trophy, but have we all thought if Xavi coached Barcelona during his heyday like Guardiola did?
Of course Xavi might be able to surpass all the achievements of Guardiola at that time, Xavi managed to bring Barcelona La Liga champions in his first season coaching Barcelona which is in poor financial condition as it is today, let's imagine if their financial condition was stable as in the past?
So far, Xavi has coached Barcelona with poor finances but is still able to make Barcelona compete, while Guardiola has Isn't only coached teams that have very strong finances?

Yes that's right. In the first half the two teams played attacking each other and the match in the first half also took place with high intensity. Barcelona tried to take the initiative to build an attack but Valencia looked ready to fight Barcelona at the start of the first half. Valencia even managed to take the lead in the first half, but unfortunately after the goalkeeper received a red card, Barcelona took advantage of their player advantage by continuing to attack the Valencia defense and forcing the Velencia goalkeeper to work hard until in the end, Barcelona was able to turn the situation around and finally win.

But what caught my attention in this match was Lewa, it seemed like his time wasn't over yet. I was touched by Lewa's play in this match, he is still Barcelona's goal scoring machine. If only he had a midfielder playing under him like at Bayern Munich, maybe Barcelona would be much better because he is not a great dribbler, but he has an incredible feel for the game and positioning himself on the pitch.

gosh, my prediction wasn't right this time.
yesterday at first I was doubtful after reading your reply with option -1 for Barcelona to win but I tried to be consistent with my prediction but the results were bad.
maybe if you keep betting on the result -1, you will definitely win your bet with higher odds than I have and that is very profitable.
Barcelona looked good in that match but what was on my mind was why was Barcelona still conceding?
since the first minute it started I believed that Barcelona defense would be able to survive without conceding because Barcelona really dominated the match but I was surprised by Hugo Duro who answered the score that had been scored by Fermin and at that moment I had no more hope.

Lewandowski's action was really great and accurate, he was able to take advantage of opportunities well which ultimately made Barcelona win against Valencia with a score of 4-2 and to be honest, this match was a tense match because Barcelona was left behind by Valencia because of a mistake made by the goalkeeper who was unable to control the ball with well which ultimately made Hugo Duro very calmly score a goal against Barcelona and a mistake by a Barcelona player who made a foul which ultimately made Valencia lucky because Valencia took a penalty kick which resulted in a goal for Valencia.

In my opinion, Lewandowski really was a savior for Barcelona because when Barcelona was behind by a goal, Lewandowski was able to score 3 goals beautifully.

Now Barcelona has succeeded in taking points from Valencia which of course has now made Barcelona successful in shifting Girona's position from runner up in the standings. but of course I am sure that the competition between Girona and Barcelona will continue until the end of the season to fight for the runner up position. and the next match Barcelona will meet Girona, of course this is a match that has been eagerly awaited and I want to see Xavi and Michel's troops play.

Both teams played very well in the first half of the game and before halftime, with Valencia leading by one goal. But unfortunately the shot went a bit too far and the player got the ball in his hand while trying to defend, which was the biggest mistake of the Valencia team. Although Guli tried hard to stop the goal here but could not, I think the goalkeeper should have been patient here. As the Barcelona team roared back immediately after receiving the red card, they went on the attack to win the game and collect the three points.

You are right. With Mamardashvilli receiving a red card in the first half, the scenario of the match changed to a great extent. But I won't say that Valencia lost because of only for this red card.

Because Barcelona trailed 2-1 at the end of the first half, but we saw Barcelona's dominance in the first half. Barcelona players had 83% of the ball possession in the first half. Having more than 80% ball possession in a match is not an easy task. Barcelona also performed well in the first half. However, Barcelona's gameplay was a bit slow in the first half. But in the second half, Barcelona played completely attacking strategy. Barcelona made a total of 9 shots in the first half, but Barcelona players made a total of 18 shots in the second half. I would say Barcelona won because of a good performance. But Barcelona got a bit of an extra advantage as Mamardashvilli got a red card.
