Barca`s contagious mediocrity

Barcelona is now so accustomed to the bad news that every day their club serves as a laugh, to the continuous mistakes of the leaders and to the general mediocrity at all levels of the pyramid, that they no longer expect anything good, nor are they accountable by the government headed by the president Josep Maria Bartomeu. Including when one of the world`s best footballers in the face of Antoine Griezmann has recently released his famed documentary with the announcement of staying at Atletico Madrid, produced by Gerard Pique.

The Frenchman at least has the mercy not to say in a straightforward text that he has played Barcelona, which is not an unimportant detail in the whole circus around Camp Nou. Barthomeu`s people, and he himself, leave the feeling that the more serious and relaxed they give away, the more mockery they make.

The president puts a good mask in the bad weather, always ready to buy accomplices and cut strips as if trying to cut a piece of Barc a`s story. It is now supposed to celebrate the permission of the local authorities in Catalonia on the basis of Espar Barca, then to Espaye Kraiff. Not surprisingly, he would soon cut off the stripe of Epsy the Bad-Bad, so that he could bring together everything that did not suit Barca`s supporters.

Just as he had personally backed up with the continuation of Lionel Messi`s contract, Barthomeu has now taken up the negotiating process for Griezmann`s transfer. Obviously, this operation was as simple as possible for any technical secretary in football because it was simply to transfer the EUR 100 million penalty due to the franchise clause to the French athletes and to negotiate the player`s salary. The president, however, somehow managed to defeat the bean`s task by not persuading the attacker to eventually come to Camp Nou. Even with Messi`s help.

Bartomeu did not know about the final from career of messi decision of the aces of los robinbaloccas until the day of the film, later even by his subordinate Pique. The head again laughed and the press in Barcelona felt deceived. The club`s hoaxes for months did not stop to say that Grossman would eventually come. They lured the journalists, became a joke to their own players, and again found themselves in a neat vineyard as last summer when Neymar turned their backs on Paris Saint-Germain.

The documentary film 'The Solution' is a symptom of the complete disorder and lack of leadership and power in the club. And it`s not going to be easy to return confidence when it`s been so long since no one ever intervened to say loudly about the conflict of interest problem with Pique`s production company.

In fact, no one in the club dares to talk to the central defender, because he ultimately helped find the Rakuten sponsor, and Barca functions as a corporation devoted entirely to finding mo ney to pay its 11 holders, to satisfy the whimsof their best players and that none of them could have any reason to cry for their salary or place on the team of the patient senior coach Ernesto Valverde.

Celta vs. Barcelona finished with 1:1

The Celta and Barcelona teams have failed to win a victory in their 33rd round in the Primera Division. The Balaidos match was quite exciting and finished 2-2.

Aspas` goal, however, was rather controversial as the striker played with his hand. The guests finished in the lowered lineup after Sergi Roberto was sent off with a direct red card in the 71st minute.

Celta bet in this game of Iago Aspas and Maximiliano Gomez in the top positions. They had to be powered by the center of Brais Mendez and Pioneer Sisto from the wings.

Ernesto Valverde had decided to give a break to many of his stars in this game analyzed by video clips for messi to keep them in f or the Cup of Spain. Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Jordi Alba and Samuel Umtiti were left on the bench, while Andres Iniesta and Gerard Pique were not even in the fight group. Sergio Busquets and Ivan Rakitic also missed the match because of injuries. At the top of the attack, Paco Alcasser was launched, with Philippe Coutinho, Ousmane Dembele and Denis Suarez, supporting him from behind.

For the first time in his career, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen carried the Barca captain in this fight.

Also in the 2nd minute the hosts organized an interesting attack. Daniel Vas got himself booked for a penalty in the penalty area and was able to block the visitors` goal out in the middle, but was not sure to reply, but was able to block him.

In the 5th minute and Barca reached his first stroke. Luca Din left the left side and put the ball on Paulinho`s head but did not hit the door.

In the 8th minute, Coutinho and Suarez made a great combination, the Spaniard got into the penalty area and shot close, but from a small corner he could not hit the door. In the 10th minute, however, Celta came to the best position so far. Maximiliano Gomez received a magnificent midfield goal over the goal-keeper`s goal and fired a shot from the left, but Ter Stegen saved. In the attack, Paco Alcasser fired a dangerous shot, saved by the goal keeper.

In the 25th minute Paulinho`s head shot off the beam. Immediately afterwards, Celta organized a good counterattack and Bryce Mendes was put on a firing position but also hit the beam. In the 33rd minute, Bryce Mendes again had the chance to fire the Terghegian door, but he was watching and intervening decisively to catch the ball.

In the 36th minute, Barca came to the opening of the score. The hosts were mistaken in taking the ball, Philippe Coutinho took and handed over to Paco Alcasser, who succumbed and manage d to continue to Dembele, who scored very accurately for 0:1.




At the very end of the halftime, however, the hosts regained a draw. The Catalonians were confused with the ball and allowed the opponent to organize a counterattack, Gomez advanced to the right and centered on the field in the goalie field, where Johnny Castro was close to the 1-1 draw.

In the 52nd minute after a long attack on Barcelona, Dennis Suarez was in a shooting position in the penalty, but his shot was `

Messi is doubly ambitious to stretch the white grid

Straight to the traditional rivalry with Real Madrid, Barcelona`s most important player, Lionel Messi, has another big goal this season. The striker is ambitious to score as many goals as possible to win the Golden Boot again, Marca reminds. For this reason Leo is expected to be extremely ambitious against the citizens of Sofia. After losing a hat-trick a week ago, Messi has already scored 32 goals in the league, ahead of Mohammed Salah from Liverpool, 31, Robert Lewandowski (Bayern) and Ciro Immobile (Lazio), who are 29, and others. La Polga won the prize a year ago when he finished the 2016/17 season with 37 hits.




The plus for Barca`s Argentine ace is that he has four more matches in the Primera Division, while Salah will have just two more matches available. Ciro Immobal was injured, and we saw yesterday Lewandowski angry with Jupp Heynckes that he pulled him out before the end of the Cologne meeting. The Polish striker of the Munichs admitted he was trying to win the prize but was in the unfavorable situation to remain just another match from video clips for messi in the Bundesliga.

Back in the provisional standings for the Golden Boot are Mauro Icardi (Inter) with 28 goals and Unason Cavani (PSG) and Harry Kain (Tottenham) - with 27.

Madness! Five goals in the Barca's door and end of the record series!

Spain`s championship champion, Barcelona, lost 4:5 as a guest from Levante in a crazy match analyzed by contact messi from the last 37th round of La Liga. Emmanuel Boateng made a hat-trick (9, 31, 49) for the Levante team, who had already secured his stay in the elite. Enis Bardhi (46, 56) was the author of the other two goals for Levante, and with a hat-trick for Barca he scored Philippe Coutinho (38, 59, 64). Luis Suarez (71-point) scored the last ninth goal in the match, which will be remembered for a long time. Ernesto Valverde`s team remains with 90 points on top, and today suffers its first loss for the Spanish Championship season. This ended the amazing record series of 43 consecutive encounters of the Catalonians without defeat at the Spanish Championship. Barca`s last loss to La Liga was just 400 days ago - April 2017 from Malaga to La Rosa. It should be noted that the Catalans were today without Argentine superstar Lionel Messi, who received a break. In his last season`s meeting, Barca accepts Real Sociedad`s Camp Nou. Levante is 15th in the 46th place, and in the last round he is on Celta.

In the 9th minute Jose Morales made a great breakthrough and handed Barca Emanuel Boateng to Barca`s defense. The Ghanaian striker was almost at goal and did not make a mistake, bringing Levante ahead in the score.

Just 2 minutes after Boateng`s goal, the hosts missed a golden chance for 2:0. The defeat of the Catalans was overcome again, and the Macedonian Ennis Bardy found himself in the penalty box of the los coules but his shot met the crossbar.

In the 25th minute, Ousmane Dembele threatened the opponent's door, but it did not reach the goal. In the middle of the second round, Belgian defender Barca Thomas Vermaelen got injured and could not continue the match, and in the 29th minute he was replaced by Gerard Pique. Only two minutes after the forced change, the visitors` defense again cracked and this allowed Boateng to jump to an excellent position in the penalty area. The Ganaese face-mask first crossed the goalkeeper Mark-Andre Ter Stegen, then defeated himself with a los cuples defender and eventually ended up on an empty door. The players of Ernesto Valverde still returned a goal in the 38th minute, with Philippe Coettinho`s author. The Brazilian offensive midfielder shoots from the arc of the penalty area, the ball deviates slightly from the body of the Levante player, lures the guard Oyer and finds himself in the net. At the very end of the first half, the ball met Pique`s hand in Barca`s penalty area, but it was tightly close to the body and the distance was rather small and the referee felt there was no reason to adjudge a penalty for the hosts. Seconds after the start of the second half the hosts made an excellent counterattack after a m isconduct of Jordi Alba, the ball reached Enis Bardhi and the Macedonian with a terrible shot from the arc of the penalty area mattered Ter Stegen - 3:1. It seemed that the evening turned into a real nightmare for the Catalans in the 50th minute when Boateng formed his hat-trick. The Ganoese was drawn into the penalty area of the guests and crossed Terre Stegen - 4:1. Boateng stood up

There is no one to stop Messi for the `Golden Boot`

Barcelona star Lionel Messi missed the match against Levante, in which the Catalans retreated by 4:5 and made a first loss during the season but still has a reason to be satisfied with today. After the rounds of the top five championship it became clear that Messi will win the Golden Boot for a fifth time.

The Argentine scored 34 goals in La Liga. Multiplied by 2, such as the Spanish championship, this makes 68 points. The most realistic chances to catch up with him were Mohammed Salah. Liverpool`s top scorer scored only once against Brighton and finished the campaign with 32 goals (64 points).


Of the other prominent promoters closest to Messi is Ciro Immobile from Lazio. The Italian, however, has to score 5 goals in the last match of his team against Inter in order to equalize with Messi. Immobile is not playing against Crotone (2:2) today because of injury and is likely to miss the decisive clash in which the last Italian Champions Lea gue quota will be played. Besides, Messi may appear in a game adviced by career of messi against Real Sociedad in the final round of La Liga and also increase his goal. Leo has already won the Golden Boot in 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2017. In the 2012/13 season he scored 50 goals and achieved a record 100 points.

Milan is also involved in the battle for Florenzi

Milan`s team will take part in the battle for the signature of Alessandro Florenzi. The second captain of Roma still can not understand the wolves to renew his contract, which will try to benefit from the teams of Juventus, Inter and Atletico Madrid.

Florenzi`s priority is to stay in the Roman club, but his desire to get a 5-year contract with a wage of 4m euros per season does not fit the team`s leadership. Milan is also intrigued by the ability to own Florenzi in their ranks, but will have to compete with many other teams, including Inter and Juventus, the Italian football teams.

The Nerazzuri have already entered into negotiations with the player`s entourage after the problems in the negotiations on the involvement of the Portuguese defender Joao Cassello. Inter Milan`s coach, Luciano Spalletti, has contacted Florence to find out what the Italian national is willing to play in the middle of the field.

Iniesta announced in tears his separation with Barcelona

The Barcelona captain Andres Iniesta officially revealed he was leaving Camp Nou. The 34-year-old footballer began today`s press conference with the decision. This is my last season in Barcelona, `said the teenage midfielder with tears. Spain`s hero leaves Cannes Barca after 22 years in the Catalunya club. Until now, Andres has accumulated 31 trophies with the blaugranas team, and on Sunday he can add another championship predicted by messi news title.

'I want to thank the club and La Massia because they gave me everything to me and my family. Thanks to my teammates, to everyone I thank all people, to all the supporters who have always helped me. 22 years ago I came here with a car, and now I`m standing here in front of you. 22 years later I stand here with the most wonderful person I met in my life - my wife!', he said.

'I had the chance to experience magic moments, but the most special was the moment I debuted for Barca - against Bruges. Then my dreams became reality. My only purpose was to triumph with Barca and succeed!', Andres admitted.

'My decision is well thought out, a result of a long process, for months. There were days in which I had more doubts, in others less. My whole life has passed here and it was not an easy decision. When I signed up for my new contract, the club gave me the chance to choose the season in which to leave!', said the Spanish national.

'Iniesta did not reveal where he would continue his career, but was determined he would not play in a European club. Nothing is clear yet, we still have to talk. The only thing I`ve always said is that I will not go into a team that can play against Barcelona. Destinations outside Europe are possible. At the end of the season or when it happens, I will choose!', he revealed. Asked if he regrets that he did not win the Golden Ball, Andres said: 'The very fact that I was with Leo (Messi) and Cavie was magic. My understanding of football or my happiness would not have been greater if I had won the Golden Ball. Everyone likes to win prizes, but that`s not something that would change my thinking.'

The hero of Spain will play for the national team starting after a month and a half World Cup.
