Barcelona is spreading terror to every opponent it finds on its way to La Liga! Although a few days ago he was defeated 2-1 by Monaco in the Principality for the premiere of the Champions League, Hansi Flick’s team reacted and destroyed Villarreal 5-1 in “Theramica”.
However, the hat-trick is overshadowed by Ter Stegen’s serious injury in the match, with the German goalkeeper expected to miss the rest of the season!
So with the victory, the German coach’s total was 6/6, having 22 goals for and 2 against, that is, he scores at least 3 goals per game, looking… hot at the start of the season. At the same time, Villarreal remained at 11 points and suffered their maiden defeat in the league.
THE Pino found the back of the net in just 8 minutes for the hosts, but his goal was disallowed for offside. Something that Barcelona took advantage of Lewandowski found the net for 1-0 in the 20th minute. The Polish striker, who has started hot, scored again a quarter later to give his side a two-goal lead, with Pereth to reduce to 38′ and put the hosts back into the game.
OR Barcelona went to the dressing room with a lead, but also a lot of concern since shortly before the end of the 45th minute the Ter Stegen he left with a problem and gave way to Peña. The first estimates are not pleasant, since they speak of serious damage and absence from the playing fields for 7-8 months of the German goalkeeper!
The second half started like the first, after Pepe saw his goal also disallowed for offside and Pedri made it 3-1 to Torre in the 58th minute!
THE Lewandowski missed the chance to complete a hat-trick in the 66th minute after missing from the penalty spot, with Villarreal having a third missed goal, this time through Barry!
Rafinha took over from the Pole, who scored a goal. First in the 75th minute to extend the lead of the Catalans and then in the 83rd minute, overflowing the score. The 5-1 remained until the final, the “Blaugrana” reached 18 points and their frantic course continues. However, they will be asked to compete until the season finale, it seems, without Ter Stegen, in a loss that could cost…
