The financially stricken FC Barcelona is slipping more and more into a sporting crisis. Six days after the 3-0 win against FC Bayern, the team led by national goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen was just 1-1 (0-1) against FC Granada on Monday.
The Catalans are only in the middle of the table with eight points. Ronald Araujo saved Barca one point with his equalizer in the final minute. Domingos Duarte had already put the underdog from Granada in the lead in the second minute. After that, the Catalans often presented themselves without ideas despite being overweight. The ex-Gladbacher Luuk de Jong missed some of the few top chances miserably (79th). As the playing time increased, the whistles increased from the stands.
Barca squeeze 1.2 billion euros in debt. For this reason, the club also had to let stars like Lionel Messi or Antoine Griezmann go in the summer.
