Amidst the chaos and noise, Having a methodical and sensible coach in Hansi Flick has been a blessing for Barca. Only two games in, but we are already starting to see the German’s “script”. His team have dominated Athletic, won their second league game in a row and haven’t slept for hours, holding a five-point lead over Real Madrid, who host Valladolid this afternoon (5pm) and are already feeling the pressure on how much Mbappe and company think this will be a whitewash.
Valencia and Athletic were also probably expecting more opportunities, or at least a Barça that was more “upset” by everything that was happening off the pitch. But on the grass, on the bench, Hansi Flick is in charge, making no excuses for the difficulties and showing great efficiency with what he has. Of course, there is room for improvement, and this was evident in the match against the Rojiblancos, but no one was challenging the victory, and at many stages of the match Barça’s play, both in attack and defence, as well as in transitions, was excellent.
The match was marked by two names. On the one hand, Dani Olmo. At the previous press conference, Flick had hoped that the club would be able to register him in time, and he was called. Egarense, with the face that paid and was entirely logical, should have seen it from the stands. The focus on the pitch was Nico Williams, whose name was closely associated with Barça in the market, but without financial guarantees and pressure from Bilbao, there was little to do.
At the decisive moment, the spotlight was rightfully on the imperial Marc Bernal in the defensive support, Pedri, who accompanied him and demonstrated his passes and vision of the game, or Lamin Jamal, who no opponent could stop when he began to cause harm to the group. Neither did his great friend Niko, who left as he wanted, having scored a magnificent goal that opened the scoring.
Control, dribbling and shooting.Hansi Flick shows the perfect combination of youth and experience, because in the end the victory came after Lewandowski’s goal. It is true that the Pole had already encountered the goalpost and the goal of Athletic Padilla, but if Levy got this far, it was because of his persistence and insatiability. “The Killer” did not stop until he got his reward.
Montjuic, which started better than expected, gave its “approval” to Hansi Flick and his project, an honest coach who after the game shook hands with all his players one by one and then went to greet some fans who were waiting for him in the stands. The one from Heidelberg looked visibly happy and satisfied. On Tuesday there will be a new revalidation, Vallecas will not give up, but for now his Barça looks good. Although it doesn’t make it any easier for them…
