The Racing gives to the Barca a heavy defeat
Seldom I had got bored so much with a heavy defeat. Minute 7: Curl eats a long ball of Márquez for being more dependent on Henry than on the ball and Iniesta makes use of it to score his first goal from that apotheosis in Stanford Bridge. Minute 29: a bad throwing of Henry’s absence finishes in the network thanks to the “barrier gruyere” of the santanderinos. Minute 34: Márquez executes a free kick of a magisterial, unstoppable way. And c’est fini …
Two do not compete if one does not want and the Racing of Santander went to the city of a count not to compete, anything that we knew already from last week, when Colsa, Munitis and Tchité resigned for this party. So the Barcelona, having scored three goals in half an hour, did not also turn out to be forced to put the long marches, taking care of the engine for the Champions meeting against the Stuttgart, some more than others, to tell truth.
Ibrahimovic could not play through the fault of the ankle, so Bojan Krkic met the only opportunity to play 90 minutes. Nothing to reproach to that of Linyola for much that has not scored goal, because it puts everything on his part: it runs, fights, is offered repeatedly and neither sucks nor shoots at goal egoístamente, more worried by the team than by his personal performance. That there are the people who practically has wanted to withdraw it when it still has not been twenty years it turns out ridiculous.
Like that thing about Channels, the new victim of the sale of smoke of the mass media, to which only he was seen when Márquez almost it rattles. The hisses and insults of the love rivals, the madness of the girls and, especially, the rattle of the mass media as regards this lad seem slightly truly pornographic to me.
The party had no history great. Iniesta demonstrated that it is perfect of form, with big mobility and desire of taking responsibilities. Busquets played big part of the party ahead of that of Fuentealbilla and enough good one saw him, although it did not find opposition too much in the decaffeinated midfield racinguista either. Messi deserves special mention: few participativo had never seen it so, apathetically, deambulante … I do not know if it was his thing or an order of the technical body, because it gave the impression that formed in eleven initial as an element disuasorio, to the style: "I am not going to intervene, but as you put yourselves cockerels I put myself the batteries”.
Of course, in the only one one against one that went out for him (of rebound) enabled Thiago to mark the quarter, when the Barca was forming with nine canteranos in the field of game; a matter that is not trivial, because it means that, removing Piqué, they all cost him zero euro to the Barca. Zero euro!
The Racing is from fallen layer, to five points of the descent and with all the lower ones except the Xerez for playing. It must be too tight and return to the good footpath if he does not want turns in complications in the final stretch of the period. For the Barca the party was a step that served to him to recapture the footpath of the victory and to do a training in Camp Nou with a view to Tuesday.
