Were Barcelona unlucky versus Atlético Madrid or have they still not learned their lesson in the Champions League?
We have played ATM six times this season (LL, CDR, UCL) and we have won 3 matches and they have won 3 matches. We have scored 10 goals and ATM have scored 9. That's a fairly even match-up, so luck can be a deciding factor in that case.For Barca in UCL, let's remember that MSN never went to consecutive UCL SFs. And outside of the 2007 - 2012 seasons, Barca haven't really been a consistent SF or better club. So if Barca haven't learned their lesson, then it stretches to well over a decade then since we haven't been consistently good in UCL KO rounds.We need to invest more in players. That part is very obvious. However, unlike Liverpool, we have the manager who can guide us, so we need to listen to what he has to say. More importantly, we have the best player in the 🌎 (again) on our team with a young core surrounding him. Let's not BARTO this up!
0Barcelona vs Espanyol, La Liga: Final Score 4-1, Barça continue title march with derby win at home
❗After 31 La Liga matches, Barça have scored 84 goals and conceded 30, while Real Madrid have managed to score 65 goals and conceded 29, only one fewer than Barça. Despite that slight defensive difference, Barça's goal difference stands at +54 compared to Madrid's +36, clearly showing that Real Madrid have been nowhere near Barça in the league.Many people have talked a lot about Barça's high defensive line in an attempt to downplay their performances, but they have conveniently ignored how many goals Barça have scored from winning the ball high up the pitch and how they have conceded only one goal more while scoring NINETEEN more than Real Madrid.RM has allowed the fewest goals in LL with 29.
