RUN. Company. Unable to react to Mbappé’s penalty, he resolved PSG’s arrivals resolutely.
MINGUEZA. Overwhelmed. Koeman replaced him shortly after the 1-0 for Junior Firpo, with a warning in his duel with Mbappé. His French star mark started well, but ended up suffering too much until he left the match in the 35th minute.
THE YOUNG. Let. Central to the plan, he advanced for Busquets in the offensive game. Combined with success, without complicating life
LENGLET. Indicated. First minute walk-in error, he was firmly in position … And he was again signaled and committed a penalty, the fourth of the year, which left Barça very moved as he played better. He suffered running backwards because he didn’t want to complicate himself.
DEST. Profundo. Placed as a track, he gave a lot of depth to his side, creating a lot of danger. He came to crash a shot on the crossbar. It was eventually flown out and replaced by Trincao.
BUSQUETS. Solvent. With the team together, without so much separation of lines, he once again showed his stripes and excellence in spreading the game. He risked, sometimes too much, but it was again the Busquets of his best nights, with Keylor hitting the target twice. He ended, tired, replaced by Pjanic.
PEDRI. Offensive. Brave but nervous, it was difficult for him to get into the dynamics of the game, losing a lot of balls on offense, although he never hid in the second half and improved until he was replaced by Ilaix.
JORDI ALBA. I laughed. Very elated, he knew how to regain his position when needed while defending. He paired with Messi as usual and searched for the bottom line, but without the necessary fortune.
MESSI. To fall upon. A nice goal was taken out of the hat to tie and he missed a penalty at the end of half-time. He led the team with solvency, risked, directed and tried anyway, slowly sinful on another obvious occasion in the second half. There was the bittersweet feeling that he was out of luck.
GRIEZMANN. From. He brought Koeman back to the starting squad and it was not the differentiator that would be expected. It was difficult for him to combine and although he worked hard on recovery, he lacked prominence in the attack.
DEMBÉLÉ. Vertical. The one who finished the most … And the one who failed the most. Fast, electric and revolutionary, he lacked success in the face of target, getting up to three shots from Keylor Navas. He tried anyway until he was replaced by Braithwaite.
JUNIOR FIRPO. Atento. He took the place of Mingueza in the 35th minute and defended more seriously, unconcealed and not knowing how to save his position.
PJANIC. Limited. He came in via Busquets in the last part, with a need to give the team a new push, but noticed that he lacked rhythm.
ILAIX. Debutante. It was presented in Europe and replaced Pedri. He lacked minutes to show himself, though he tried to get into the game, both in creation and recovery.
BRAITHWAITE. Invisible. He took Dembele’s position in the final stretch, more as an emergency aid than a tactical hit, placing himself out of nine to wait for a ball that barely reached him.
