PBP: FC Barcelona v Getafe CF | J31 - La Liga 20/21 | 22 April 2021 [R]

Fourth place? Damn Sevilla keeping the pace. Easy must win game at home, so probably will lose points...

 

Have Barca asked their spokesperson Perez if it's OK to win this game, we don't want to upset LPB.

 

Our subs for #BarçaGetafe 2 Dest 4 R. Araujo 8 Pjanić 12 Riqui Puig 17 Trincão 19 Matheus 23 Umtiti 24 Junior 26 Iñaki Peña (GK) 27 Ilaix Moriba 29 Konrad 36 Arnau Tenas (GK)

Braithwaite tweaked his ankle and not available today and likely next 2 weeks. Not sure but guessing Dembele injured too - EDIT - confirmed, Pelvis, no timeline.

Roberto gets first start in ages (due to injuries), less worrisome as our fullbacks play more forward with the 3 CBs system, so he has Mingueza generally behind him.

MAtS
Mingueza-Pique-Lenglet
Roberto-Busquets-Alba
de Jong-Pedri
Messi-Griezmann​

 

Messi with post already.

 

Lenglet takes early yellow from Pedri mistake. Mind you no yellow with football rules, but Refdrid rules.

 

1-0 Messi

 

1-1 Lenglet

 

Great pass by Busquets and well timed run by Messi, who then fights to stay on his feet as he is pushed from behind, then scores. Great stuff.

Then an own goal by Lenglet while Oscar was off injured. Credit to Cucurella and Angel.

 

Unlucky for Lenglet.

Come on, Barca!

 

2-1 Lmao

 

Griezmann almost from Messi throughball

 

Trying to decide who was at fault on the own goal. I'm guessing the goalkeeper should have called out (?)

 

How isn't that a yellow compared to Lenglet yellow? Oh right, the 50/50 bias.

 

3-1 Messi after hitting post

 

And right-footed.

 

HT: 3-1.

Messi x2, own goal.

 

Damn Roberto is rusty, very inprecise passing.

 

Nah, would be too easy to score second half.

 

Var calling ref back first time ever. Of course against us.
