La Liga | Round 21: FC Barcelona - Athletic Bilbao 2-1

[Sailor Mars]

Barca's right side was pretty porous. A lot of Bilbao's danger came from that side.

Obviously having to play Mingueza as a RB contributed to that, but subbing Roberto on for Pjanic wasn't a strong adjustment.

This Basque Atletico coached by Marcelino is a pain in the ass. Beating them is a sign of quality.

We also beat Lahoz.

lol true although I gotta admit that he gave them many yellow cards today for his standard

we can't control a game to save our lives

we need arthur...

 

[cro-man]

We cant finish a game off and thats a problem. There is always a way for our opponent to come back. We need to sort this out but easy to say when you dont have enough fire power. We need fati back as soon as possible.

 

[Respekt_III]

positives: we scored 3 goals
negatives: we still cant finish to save our lives.

 

[Etoshow]

The three points are welcome especially after the Madrid's defeate. Griezmann scored and I don't ask him more. Let's hope he'll reach a good level of consistency. However the team isn't strong enough to win La Liga, we have to grow our level up. I don't speak of the UCL because for me there is 0% of chance.

True. Horrible refereeing today.

Raul Garcia remaining on the pitch however was very much Spanish standards much less Lahoz

 

[FC B]

Finally? Bilbao got beaten twice by Barcelona in January. 6.1.2021 2-3 away win in Marcelino's first game as their coach. Beating them in La Liga is more important anyway.

 

[eaman]

Good result in a tough match. Two very good goals as well

He's the Basque Casemiro.

 

[Marshall D Teach]

Why are we second? Is head to head no longer the tiebreaker?
