Barcelona won 3-0 away to Sevilla. One of the goals for the Duma of Catalonia was scored by reliable Robert Lewandowski. The Polish striker did everything to improve his shooting record.
FC Barcelona entered the new season of La Liga well. Xavi’s wards, apart from the failure, that is, a goalless draw with Rayo Vallecano, won two matches in a row, and Robert Lewandowski scored a total of four goals. Seville is in the opposite extreme. The team from Andalusia did not advance well in the league. Looks the worst in 40 years. The favorite in this match were, of course, the players from Catalonia. Moreover, the team of Julen Lopetegui has not beaten the blue garnets in La Liga matches since October 2015.
Great Barcelona first half and Robert Lewandowski’s goal
The hosts started with great enthusiasm. The first minutes are a clear advantage for Sevilla, which has repeatedly created good scoring opportunities. However, they often got offside, but they still had to take the lead, and perhaps they would have succeeded if someone else was in the Barcelona goal, and not Marc-Andre Ter Stegen. The German saved his own skin on the defensive with his interventions.
Los Nervionenses performed surprisingly well, but unexpectedly in the 21st minute, the guests started the game, which ended in a goal. Robert Lewandowski received a pass into the box, he cut the ball over the goalkeeper. Before the ball crossed the goal line, the Sevilla defender managed to hit him, but he did it rather unsuccessfully, as the ball fell right on Rafinha’s head. The Brazilian had no problems getting into the net.
Something broke in the home team. Blaugrana seized the initiative and followed the blow. In the 36th minute, this season’s reliable captain of the Polish national team entered the list of snipers after Jules Kunde’s cross. For “Lewie” this is the fifth goal in the third game in a row. Before the break, Ousmane Dembele had a great opportunity to increase the result, but he missed it. The Polish striker held a grudge against him for not helping him.
The Sevilla crisis continues. FC Barcelona scores full points
Julen Lopetegui decided to make two changes. Rafa Mir and Jose Angel Carmona appeared on the field. The first minutes after the change of sides were like the beginning of the match. The enthusiasm of the owners quickly faded. Already in the 50th minute, Eric Garcia took advantage of another mistake in the defense of Los Nerviónenses and threw the ball into an empty net.
It was practically the end of emotion in this encounter. Team Xavi controlled the field. Robert Lewandowski had more chances to score but failed to make the top scorer list. Of course, the Pole will feel dissatisfied, because he can even score a hat-trick.
