FC Barcelona has been undefeated for four games since the Spanish Soccer Championship, which on Saturday – playing more than half an hour in human advantage – ended in a 1-1 draw as Alavés guest in the round of 16. The Catalan federation coach, Ronald Koeman, has no doubts about the performance of his team, but is concerned about the effectiveness (or simply ineffectiveness) of the offensive game.

“I’m worried about our offensive game Mareman quotes Koeman. – It is not allowed for a team to score a single goal in so many situations. Our game was generally satisfactory, but we have to improve in the face of goal. We shoot a lot of situations, it doesn’t fit. The same happened against Juventus. Sometimes we look for the last pass even when we need to shoot from outside the sixteen. We also donated a goal to Alavés, which is also unacceptable. Of course it is worrying that we have only scored two points in our last four league games, we can criticize our performance, but I would be even more concerned if we did not have situations. “
The Dutch specialist was also asked to replace Ansu Fati; The Spanish winger, who turned 18 just on match day, was one of Barcelona’s best in Vitoria, but Koeman pulled him off the pitch in his hair and sent Martin Braithwaite in his place.
“Other times they criticize me for changing too late, now I have changed three at halftime Koeman responded, who after the first half replaced Pedri, Miralem Pjanico and Francisco Trincao with Ousmane Dembélé and Clément Lenglet and Sergio Busquets, who received the yellow card. – Ansu had the opportunities, but there were also players sitting on the bench who could score and I tried to change something to win the game ”.
