This Saturday night, FC Barcelona played on Mallorca's lawn as part of the seventh La Liga day. The Catalans, who had won at Elche before the break, aimed to clinch a sixth victory of position in the competition. The Balearic Islands, for their part, hope to build on their victory at home two weeks ago over newly promoted Almeria. Due to Kounde and Araujo's injuries, Piqué returned to the center hinge of the formations, and Fati was positioned to the attack's left.
Even though the accuracy was sadly lacking in the final gesture, the Mallorcans had the finest possibilities in the first act even if Barça confiscated the ball as usual. Seen in the aftermath are Lee (11th) and De Galaretta's excessively forceful strikes (12th). Lewandowski established the standard after the first 30 minutes, even though it required a little bit of efficiency: after a fantastic hook in the area, the Pole expertly hit Rajkovic's little left net with a strong low strike to start the score (1-0, 20th).
Barça is terrified but promises
After scoring nine goals in the league, RL9 was close to adding a second in two minutes, but his lob failed to fool the former goalkeeper Reims (22nd). Mallorca kept up the pressure on the Blaugrana defense despite the goal they conceded, but Ter Stegen kept the goals perfectly, especially against Costa (34th) and Sanchez (51st). The arguments did not actually start when the locker room was reopened, as though the FCB was already in charge of the outcome. The players for Xavi were pleased to spin the ball to the answer in the other half of the field.
Enough for the locals to be able to surprise the somewhat elevated defensive line of the men in gold by immediately projecting themselves against them. MATS was reassuring on his line to block Muriqi's shots at the finish of the game (84th). FC Barcelona won by the slimmest of margins (1-0) despite a few flashes in extra time to take the lead ahead of Real Madrid, who will play Osasuna on Monday night at the Bernabeu. Mallorca is still in tenth place but could move up if Girona, Rayo, or Celta de Vigo have a successful game.
