But : Becker (33e) pour les White-Blue
Against Real Sociedad, Barça could win, but they ultimately lost (1-0). Damn realism.
Robert Lewandowki thought he would make the difference by taking advantage of a mess caused by Frenkie de Jong at the penalty spot, but the Pole's goal was refused for an offside that was difficult to see (13e). The joy is finally on the side of Sheraldo Becker, completely forgotten by Jules Koundé in the back and quick to place his ball away from Iñaki Peña (1-0, 33e). Launched, the locals could have doubled the lead without the clumsiness of Mikel Oyarzabal, yet alone in front of goal (45e+1).
Barcelona's domination at the end of the match was only fueled by fruitless attempts (eleven shots, zero on target) and defensive generosity which could have allowed the Basques to win even more. Second defeat in the league for Barça therefore, decidedly unvarnished in the north of Spain after having already lost against Osasuna. Real Sociedad climbs to eighth place.
