FC Barcelona, with a lonely goal by Dani Olmo, has surpassed this Tuesday at RCD Mallorca (1-0) in the thirtieth day of LaLiga EA Sports, a result that allows the Catalans to establish themselves in the leadership of the championship and arrive with the high moral to the final next Saturday against Real Madrid.
Those of Hansi Flick, who besieged the Mallorcan area but which ran back with a spectacular Leo Román, could only end the resistance of his rival at the start of the second part, when Olmo received a ball in the area and placed it away from the goalkeeper’s reach. With this triumph, Barça reaches 76 points to get Real Madrid – who plays on Wednesday in Getafe – in seven in the absence of five days for the end.
Everything before next Saturday starts the five games in 16 days that could decide their season: the classic of the Copa del Rey final, the first leg of ‘Champions’ against Inter in Montjuïc, the league duel at home against Real Valladolid, the return in Milan and the LaLiga match against Real Madrid.
After the tight triumph against RC Celta, determined in the discount for a penalty materialized by Raphinha, the Brazilian striker was one of the players reserved by Hansi Flick for the Cup final, leaving his place in the eleven A ANSU Fati. In addition, men like Lamine Yamal and Raphinha returned to ownership, and Héctor Fort also had his chance on the left side.
As soon as he started, a boarding school in Antonio Sánchez’s rival area put on the leader, who had his first shot in Ansu Fati’s boots. Little by little, the culé picture was encouraged by Lamine Yamal; The Spanish international premiered with a left -footed shot that left over the crossbar, and shortly after, in the 11th minute, he ran into an attentive Leo Román, who previously in the same play made a great stretch to divert the shot of Ferran Torres.
Those of Jagoba Arrasate offered the replica overcome the first quarter of an hour, on a clear occasion of Samu Costa in which Wojciech Szczesny appeared to disrupt the danger, but the domain, from that moment, was exclusively Barça.
Román reappeared to get a shot from Dani Olmo with a providential hand in full siege culé. Two minutes later, Gavi crashed a ball in the crossbar, after he touched slightly in Omar Mascarell, and almost without time to assimilate Ronald Araujo failed a sung goal, with a shot touching the stick, after hunting a reject after a chut of Lamine Yamal.
Overturned in attack, Barça sought to release the score in a double opportunity of Eric García and Dani Olmo at half an hour, with Román as the protagonist before the first auction of the defense. It would not be the last intervention of the Bermellón goalkeeper in the first part, in which he repelled up to two Lamine centrochuts on a triple occasion in which the rear also cleared another ball of Héctor Fort.
Ansu Fati was also about to open the can with a left -footed shot that left without finding a goal before the first part died with Mallorca finding the door, although the referee annulled the goal of Mateu Morey outside the previous game.
The Balearic resistance fell as soon as the game was resumed after the costume passage, when Dani Olmo received within the area a satin center of Eric García and, with patience, sought the space before putting the ball on the long stick, making Roman’s stretch useless (min.46). Ansu Fati was able to increase the account four minutes later, but Román repelled his attempt.
Despite the Tromba departure of the Catalans -which in the absence of half an hour gave entrance to Raphinha and Fermín -, Raíllo touched the tie in a header in the lateral fault of Johan Mojica who went licking the stick, and little by little the Mallorcanist began to take more danger to the culé area. Two other stubs, one from Ríllo and another from Larin, generated restlessness in the Blaugrana parish.
In the 78th minute, Lamine Yamal, after receiving a sensational pass through Pedri, forgave in the hand to hand before the Bermellón goalkeeper, who also denied the success to the right of Pau Víctor minutes later. Eric García and Fermín were also victims of the Ibizanian goalkeeper, who at the break appeared again to prevent the difference from being greater.
