Of course, everyone expected a lot of goals in such a match. For two reasons: Villarreal sold Torres to Aston Villa, after which a defensive nightmare began. And the Danish goalkeeper Jorgensen in the first matches did not cause positive reviews. Barça has its own history: in the first two games they did not lose, but Getafe and Cádiz created enough scoring chances. Just bad luck. Sooner or later it had to end. However, what happened in the end, only few people expected.
Villarreal started the game much stronger. Serloth and Pedraza each created a moment of danger and Barça was not visible in the first 10 minutes. But I woke up on the 11th. They earned a corner, the ball flew to the other side of the area, a new canopy, and Gavi positioned his head great.

Yes, it’s unfair. But this is just the beginning. A minute later, Lewandowski slotted the ball into the penalty line and it seemed that the attack had stalled a bit. But Pedraza played against his team, clumsily kicking the ball just into the open of Jong. And now it’s 2:0.

Then Villarreal seemed to have finished. Barça took control of the ball and the rival forgot about the attacks after such a vigorous start. But the paradoxes of this match were just beginning. How else can you explain that the hosts, having lost the initiative, played a ball? Juan Foit eluded the Barça defenders after a corner kick and made it 1:2.

This ball inspired the hosts. And again they took the initiative. Yes, they didn’t create as many chances, but Barca’s temporary advantage was completely over. It was all because they tied the score. And so it happened in the 40th minute. Serloth put the ball into the goal after a cross.

But this was not the end! Although it seemed that all possible scenarios for the development of the intrigue had already been realized. At the start of the second half, Villarreal took the lead for the first time in the game. Pedraza dragged the ball down the flank and hit Baena with a blow. No chance for Ter Stegen.

Apparently, only this made Barça finally wake up. They finally remembered that they are still the favorites. And turned on to the max. At first, a shot from Yamal nearly broke the goal and Ferran Torres scored in the 68th minute.

Another four minutes – and Lewandowski has already competently played on the rebound, bringing the ball to an empty goal.

Then a lot of substitutions and several attempts by Villarreal to level the score again. But it was not possible to create obvious moments.
Barça won the second game in a row. And the second time, with great nerves. Xavi definitely needs to think about how to improve the situation.
Sad about the departure of talents from La Liga for money:
The talent of La Liga has gone to Saudi Arabia. Veiga was called the best clubs and chose the money
