We remind you that the first match of “Ramón Sánchez Pizjuan” ended 0: 2 for Sevilla, who today suffered from lack of luck. First because of the penalty they missed in the 73rd minute, and also because of Gerard Piqué’s goal at the bottom of added time, which put the battle of the tournament into extra time.

But that’s how it all started. In the 11th minute Serginho Dest passed very well to Dembélé, who adjusted the ball, but sent it back. Sevilla could not keep up with the Catalans and the goal was not late. In another attempt, this time with his right foot, Dembélé surprised Vaclik and overtook the “kules” early.

Halfway through the first half, Sevilla organized a dangerous counter, but Joan Jordan’s shot was blocked. A little later, Dembélé was taken out at full speed, but Aleish Vidal managed to stop him. Barça attacked from both sides. In the 31st minute, Jordi Alba lacked a low center. Then a powerful kick from Pedry flew over the crossbar.

In the first minutes after the break, Barcelona tightened the rope around the guests’ penalty area. Dest and Alba were still active and created many problems for Sevilla’s defense.

In the 71st minute after his pass, Griezmann had the opportunity to shoot, but stopped between several players and the moment passed. On the counterattack, Mingesa fouled Ocampos, who appeared as a reserve in the penalty area. The Argentine executed the penalty himself, but Ter Stegen saved and kept Barça’s hopes.

In the second minute of stoppage time Fernando kept Trinkao off by speeding and was sent off for two yellow cards. The direct free kick was launched by Messi, but the ball bounced off the wall and went to a corner. After the center from the corner, the attack by “Los Coules” continued. Griezmann returned the ball to the penalty area, and there Piqué deflected it in the lower right corner of the gate – 2: 0 and extra time.

Barcelona’s numerical advantage paid off quickly. In the fifth minute of the first overtime Jordi Alba crossed, and Martin Brightwight caught the ball with his head and passed it under the plunge of Vaclik.
