Madrid. FC Barcelona thrashed Sevilla FC (5-1) this Sunday on the tenth day of LaLiga EA Sports in a round performance at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, with the icing on the cake of Gavi‘s return after his long injury, ahead of a week big one in which they will face Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.
Hansi Flick’s men returned with the same intensity that they went to the national team break, to maintain the lead alone with 27 points to Real Madrid’s 24. The culé team responded to the whites’ victory on Saturday with a display that detonated Robert Lewandowski’s 1-0 lead, on a Peque penalty.
Sevilla, who were looking to recover the good dynamics they had before the break, had withstood the strong start of the home team well and even began to show themselves in the opposite field, but the Pole opened the scoring from eleven meters in the 24th minute, and four minutes later , Pedri shot the 2-0 in a good start at speed. Barça punished almost whenever they could, when Nyland did not appear.
Meanwhile, Xavier García Pimienta’s team did not have their day, with the injury in the first half of Chidera Ejuke, after his substitute Suso and with the offside lines that also allied themselves with the locals. The little hand had as its protagonist the Pichichi by far of the League, a Lewandowski who reached the 12th with a double on a night of partying in Montjuic.
The Pole put his foot on Raphinha’s shot to almost end the match in the first half. The Barça fiefdom enjoyed it and gave themselves to their team knowing that a big week is approaching: Wednesday, Bayern, and on Saturday, Clásico against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu. A double portion of carats that fills a Barça with a rush that is also recovering its strength.
After the break, the script continued in favor of the locals, with a sixth gear looking for more goals, with three very clear chances in just five minutes. Sevilla threatened to wake up thanks to Suso and were able to get into the game with a penalty on Isaac Romero, but an offside left the Andalusians without that option at the hour mark. Then Gavi began to warm up and Fermín jumped in, returning after two months injured.
Flick’s team was very advanced, Sevilla once again threatened to cut back, but Lukebakio also fell in an advanced position. To top off the night of goals, it was Pablo Torre who joined the party with a double in the final minutes, with a rebound from the defense and a direct free kick that no one touched. Before, Idumbo had achieved honor for those of Pimienta.
The news, however, was in the band, with the entire stadium waiting for Gavi and his return a year later after a serious knee injury. The tireless midfielder returned in the 83rd minute, for Pedri and with the captain’s armband, and Lluís Companys did not stop chanting his name. Barça smiled like Gavi on a night of partying before a big week.
