For five years and almost five months – since April 5, 2015 – Barcelona could not beat Celta. And Leo Messi has not scored in Vigo for seven years! But now one of these episodes is interrupted
The first half, held in heavy rain, was not particularly spectacular. The teams hit two shots, incl. one at a time. But if Fati, who received a pass from Coutinho, fired from below the near post, then the goalkeeper confidently held Fontana’s blow. 1-0, Barcelona had an advantage, but remained in the minority. Surprisingly, there were only 4 fouls on the liabilities of the guests! But two of them were committed by Clement Langlet, and both, according to the referee, were pulling a warning. So in minute 42 the Catalans were in the minority.
However, Celta could not save the match. The second half began with another quick goal from the guests: Messi rushed into the penalty area from the right, fired, and the ball bounced off Lucas Olas’ leg into the near corner of the goal, disorienting the goalkeeper. 0: 2, and the hosts had no chance. Yes, they beat Barcelona in possession after the break (54: 46%), but, as in the first half, they only managed to launch a shot on goal. The Catalans counterattacked with confidence and in injury time staged a counterattack. And again Messi scored a goal. Now he broke into the penalty area on the left, shot with the bottom: the goalkeeper kicked the ball. However, Sergio Busquets was the first on the rebound, shooting on goal – 3: 0.
Celta with five points after 4 games remained in the eleventh line of the standings. On October 4, the team will visit Osasuna. Barça added 6 points in two games and climbed to 5th place. On Sunday, the Catalans host Sevilla.
