Barça has fun in Belgrade against Red Star with a choral exhibition led by Lewandowski and Raphinha

He Barca He moves at cruising speed and it is therefore very difficult to stand up to them. Without breaking down, having fun, with excellent football and with several players in a state of grace. No one can cough on the team browse and even less the Red Star (2-5), one of the Cinderellas of the Champions League. [Así hemos vivido la victoria del Barça].

The Serbs tried to put the best team in the world in difficulty today. Aware of their rare weapons on the green, the supporters accompanied them with deafening noise and generated an atmosphere which, in other times, could have made the legs of the Barça players tremble. But this time it wasn’t like that. They beat the Serbs, one more this season, and made a giant leap towards qualifying for the next round.

Flick’s team doesn’t seem to have any weak points. Lamine, Raphinha and Lewandowski are still in a state of grace and between them they guide Barça to all possible goal records. The Pole is living his second youth and Raphinha has established himself this season as one of the best footballers in the world.

When the next one comes, they will think of Barcelona. Now Real Sociedad is coming, but the confidence is maximum. The worst that could happen is the international break. Right now, that seems like the only thing that can stop an unstoppable streak. This Barça is a candidate for everything.

Seamless

The Barça team jumped onto Rajko Mitic’s pitch with clear ideas. Ready to continue offering attacking football and with suffocating pressure to make their rival as difficult as possible. And it worked. Once again, Flick’s storyline reigned.

In fact, it only took them 12 minutes to deliver the first direct blow to the Serbian team’s chin. A carefully placed lateral foul by Raphinha towards the far post which found the head of Iñigo Martínez. It was rather the Basque central defender who took the upper hand by diving and taking a cross header against which Ilic could do nothing.

Everything works for Barça and they have even learned to resist in moments of weakness. Red Star equalized the match on an isolated play in the 27th minute after Gerard Martín misjudged the offside line. It was a moment of excitement among the locals, who saw it as entirely possible to reverse the situation.

However, far from encountering the ghosts of the past, the Catalans have once again moved forward into the light. They had some luck, always necessary to win titles, and Lewandowski found himself with a rebound after Raphinha’s shot hit the post to score at will. A goal at the start of half-time which did justice to what was seen on the green.

The sentence

If Barça’s first half was remarkable, the following forty-five minutes were exceptional. A “masterclass” which silenced the stronghold of Red Star with good football and a festival of goals.

After two minutes, the sentence fell. Lewandowski scored the third by completing a free cross to the far post and Raphinha joined the party with a good low shot from the edge of the area which hit the post. The two goals came after two good crosses from Koundé, one of the most striking of the evening.

The Frenchman, who found his best habitat on the side, also left his mark on Barça’s fifth goal. Do more damage on the right lane and place a low cross forward looking for a teammate. This time, it was Fermín who was responsible for sending the ball into the back of the net. 1-5 and one more victory for Flick’s team in the pocket.

Milson reduced the deficit in the 84th minute with a piece of art. The same as the Barça match in Belgrade. Add and follow Flick’s team who are already thinking about Real Sociedad before the international break.
