Barcelona Triumphs 2-0 Over Osasuna, Secures Spot in Supercopa Final Against Real Madrid!
๐ FULL TIME! Barcelona 2-0 Osasuna! The victory propels us into the final showdown with Real Madrid!
โฝ๏ธ 90+3′ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! YAMAL FINDS THE NET! COOL STUFF FROM FELIX TO SET HIM UP!
Pricky (Reddit): “Very unselfish of Felix. Ferran should take notes. Class pure class.”
kezzinch (Reddit): “2-0 GOALS FROM LEWY AND YAMAL?! IS THIS THE APOCALYPSE?!”
โฑ๏ธ 90′ Four minutes of stoppage time.
๐ 88′ Our lads shouldn’t forget Osasuna often turn into beasts late in the game… and here they are getting a huge chance that wasn’t converted.
๐ฎโ๐จ 84′ Pedri is having a great cameo so far. We’ve missed his magic on the ball so much.
๐ 77′ Even after scoring, Lewy is pushing really hard. Deserved a lot more tonight, but Herrera and the Osasuna defenders doing well.
๐ 68′ That was a fine effort from Felix. All things done timely and accurately. Herrera on fire tonight despite the conceded goal.
๐ 62′ Pedri and Joao Felix come on for Roberto and Ferran!
Snoo (Reddit): “Fans who say Ferran must start ahead of Lewy – Lewy’s current season (his worst since 2010-11) is greater than Ferran’s whole career.”
โฝ๏ธ 59′ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!! FINALLY, THE DEADLOCK IS BROKEN!
Great stuff from Christensen and Gundogan in the buildup, and LEWY gets his long-awaited goal! Great finish.
๐ 56′ Multiple Osasuna players are on yellow cards already. That’s a good sign, I can actually feel someone turning it into red tonight.
๐ 52′ The pressure and set pieces are so far the only good signs of tonight’s Barca performance.
๐โโ๏ธ 48′ A round of applause for Pedri who’s warming up.
๐ฅ SECOND HALF!
๐๐ Half-time ratings
Best players
Gundogan. Accurate with his passing. Provided 2 key passes already.
Christensen. Solid at the back. Had a good shot on target.
Worst players
Araujo. Seems disconnected. Allowed one big chance after a mistake.
Ferran. Should’ve scored at least once. Lacks impact in attack.
Lewandowski. Doesn’t take his chances once again. Poorly links up with his teammates up front.
โฑ๏ธ Half time. Barcelona 0-0 Osasuna.
๐ 45′ What a ball from Lamine! Not trying to be a Raphinha hater, but when was the last time we’ve seen something like that from him?
๐ 42′ Lamine Yamal comes on for Raphinha who is injured.
๐ญ 40′ omidferoz (Reddit): “You know the settings in FIFA where you can change the speed? This game feels like it’s on extra slow setting. Everything goes in slow-mo and players jug. It’s like they are playing on mud.”
๐ฉ 39′ Terrible defending from Araujo out there. Pena is the reason we’re not behind right now.
๐ 32′ Brilliant work from Raphinha to press the opponent and go on a run. Overall, Barca’s high pressure has been quite effective tonight.
๐ญ 31′ rockyracoon (Reddit): “Our passes are so fucking slow, man. There’s no urgency, there’s no purpose. There’s no motivation. Itโs just pass, wait 5 seconds, pass, wait 5 seconds, etc.”
๐ 28′ Shots so far: 5-1. We should’ve scored twice already, honestly.
๐โโ๏ธ 25′ Balde feels some discomfort, which is why Hector Fort is warming up. He played at left-back against Barbastro.
๐ 23′ Xavi looks annoyed as Barca keep losing balls quite easily. We witness this reaction too often this season.
๐ 19′ Loved that from Gundo. An unconventional way to take a free kick which was also quite dangerous.
๐ 12′ Feels like the crowd is chanting ‘Xavi! Xavi!’
๐ฉ 8′ Ferran! The net was half-empty, nothing could stop him from scoring, but he shoots it wide. Osasuna get two big chances shortly after that โ the game is open like Xavi wanted.
๐ 6′ Nice try from Christensen. I’m actually impressed with how dangerous we are at corner kicks this season.
๐ 2′ Gundogan currently the deepest among the three midfielders. Barca play with a back three of Kounde, Araujo and Christensen.
๐ฅ KICK OFF!
๐ Barca’s last 5 games against Osasuna: WWWDW
๐ The lineup: Inaki Pena; Kounde, Araujo, Christensen, Balde; Roberto, De Jong, Gundogan; Raphinha, Lewandowski, Ferran.
