From the deep disenchantment last week, after the punctures in front of the PSG and the Cádiz, Barça has gone to delusion after the victories before Elche Y Sevilla. The important triumph Saturday at the Sánchez Pizjuán, against a direct rival and who had not been able to win this season, has returned the trust and the good
sensations to a Barça team that had finished very touched last week.
In La Liga the difference with him Athletic
of
Madrid is still five points, since those of Simeone they won last night at Villarreal by 0-2 (and they have a pending match), but they still have to visit the Camp Nou and next weekend there is a Madrid derby, so one of the two, or both if they tie, will score points . The Real
Madrid He has one point less than Barça and plays against Real Sociedad today. But there is a League and time to come back for Barça, which must also visit the Bernabéu.
Win at Sevilla And in the way that it was done, it not only allows us to keep alive the hope of fighting for the league title, but it also allows us to dream of the comeback in the Copa del Rey. On Wednesday Barça will face the Andalusians again, this time at the Camp Nou. In the Barça dressing room they are aware that it will not be easy to overcome the 2-0 conceded in the first leg, but they also believe that Saturday’s victory at Pizjuán marks the way forward.
The Barça broke the streak of five games in a row by Sevilla without conceding a single goal in the league and showed that they are capable of beating the Andalusians by at least two goals ahead, the minimum they need to equalize the tie.
The Barça team starts the month of March convinced that they are still League and also that there is Cup. The last time they had to come back before him Sevilla in the KO tournament two seasons ago, the Barça thrashed the Andalusians (6-1) in the Camp
New and a tie was turned around in which the first leg result (2-0) was the same as right now.
The bad news for Ronald
Koeman is that he will not be able to count on Wednesday’s game with Pedri, who suffered a muscle injury in the Pizjuán. On the other hand, he will be able to play Araujo and features the promising emergence of Ilaix
Moriba and on Saturday he opted for a new system to surprise Lopetegui and to Sevilla.
It will be necessary to see if the system with the three centrals will have continuity in Wednesday’s game or Koeman He will return to 4-3-3, but now the Dutchman has the advantage of being able to surprise the rival coach, since until now the opponents knew the Barça tactical scheme by heart.
Relive Barça’s triumph against Sevilla
The next appointment is at Cup of
Rey and in the Barça dressing room they are convinced that they can achieve the comeback. They know that they are one game away from being able to play a final and they believe in their possibilities to turn the tie around. The Barça team does not throw in the towel and as long as they have options, they will fight in all competitions. He will do it on Wednesday at the Cup, will do it in the League and even in the Champions will go out to win in Paris. In the Champions they are realistic, but if you have to fall, let it be with your head held high. And without ruling out the miracle before playing, for what may happen
