Fourteen days without football
(qualifying matches but there were not too estmiulantes, almost never are) might seem the perfect opportunity for a mental break from the stresses of the league but did not. These days have been full of news and almost never good for the team (with the exception of the smooth progress of the disease Abidal): Puyol is still recovering from his injury eternal Peter could not take the break to recover from his, Messi also had its problems (when sneezing all FC Barcelona Messi is Agrippa, Rossell justified by what has just opened his mouth since his election and turn Guardiola confirmed that did very well when his day chose not to do interviews.
Apart from that the team faced the important event in El Madrigal to the moral incentive of knowing beforehand the sting of Madrid (poetic justice for a team despised by Mou that although the detail had come to greet the Asturian after finishing the party, perhaps aware that his attitude will not benefit a team that already has a priori alienated half of Spain) and the physical handicap of the heavy casualties.
The usual mess behind joined the absence of Xavi and Messi, two players who are the heart and soul of the team. With a team
circusntancias so no wonder The first part was not the best of the Barca that even were seriously threatened by rapid Villareal kickbacks that were burned in the last line of defense by Valdes (undoubtedly the best team). At this stage the game was noticed that no one could replace Xavi, Thiago made some good detail but gives the feeling that you have to wait several years before we can take the gallons and Iniesta without Terrassa coverage was very vague and no room in the field. Up front
Afellay unfolded pretty bad down the left, center or in a hurry wrong and got the feeling that has not been coordinated well with his peers. Villa for his part was pretty weak too late for almost all combinations were tried with him or continuously falling offside.
Still, after the start of the match grip above, the progressive decrease in blood enabled Villareal game that the club was taking control of the game but continued to give the impression that the first 45 minutes had been a warming in which only had to keep a clean sheet while waiting for Messi to jump to the field.
began the second half and Barca took the game completely enclosing a Villareal but did not give ground, Messi finally entered instead of Keita (very unfortunate is that the absence of Xavi turns to his fellow players worse, as the tiny weep when you leave within 15 years) and even gave impreisión that did not quite get the everything in the game his presence, attracting to its orbit to the enemies defenses and creating spaces for other players to attack, was enough to unhinge the Villareal finished. In addition Afellay was more accurate in his band and interned by Thiago e Iniesta (free of pressure they had in the first half after deserting the field school premises) were much more aggressive in the attack.
Barca started to combine search all alterntivas possible to get the goal, may have come or not taking into account the limited success that the team had shown, fortunately in the end, it came: a corner kick header reaches Busquets and Pique that after stopping the breast (and possibly by hand, on Sixth still being discussed) ends at the back of the net.
From there some more, the game was nothing but an exercise of control was disrupted only by a last chance for local Valdés once again frustrated. Full time and a championship victory that smells like, if there are no mishaps in the next day (not forget what happened today at the Bernabeu next day) arrive at Chamartin field with eight points. The league appears set but not for me to trust that I am culé is old.
