Its a cup final for them.
wow
What a game from Morales.
Xavi time!
Great ride, and from another substitution as well, xavi doing quite well.
Luuk de Jong has personally won like 5 games this season with these last minute headers.
I bet no one predicted Luuk de Jong to be the more valuable dutch striker for Barca this season.
Luuk has been an absolutely sensational bench option for Xavi.
Fecking hell. And poor Levante, can't catch a break this season. Incredible combination of bad luck, poor finishing and teams scoring on them from nothing. One of the best teams to go down in recent memory, if things broke just a bit right they'd be comfortably midtable
This Barca concedes a lot of chances for rivals.
They are gonna pay for this in the UCL next season, got dominated by Eintracht Frankfurt, who is a mid table german team, but luckily for Barca the germans couldn't concrete the chances they created.
They have improved a lot, but their defense is still shit, and they gonna pay for that in the UCL facing better teams than Eintracht, Galatasaray, Levante, Real Sociedad, etc

Luckily for you you’re too far ahead and pretty consistent. If the gap would be something like 3-5 points things could’ve got interesting, but Barca sacked Koeman too late. Incredible impact by de Jong yet again
That's why they're signing a lot of players to upgrade their squad this summer.
Wouldn't say their defense is shit, but there is definitely room for improvement. Barca struggle when they dont dominate the ball and circulate it properly. That part Xavi is still working on. When they do they opponents cant do anything, see matches this season vs. Napoli away, Real Madrid away, Athletic Club at home, Atletico at home (although they scored two they didn't do much in terms of generating chances).
Juan Carlos unzue got a moving tribute in the alaves osasuna match whichi foundvery classy.
Apparently he was diagnosed with als which is a terrible and heinous disease and unfortunately has no cure.

I'm not sure if I agree. The problem only happens when the team gets disconnected and is not able to push forward, which happened the last 2 games only after a very good streak. Zero goals against Sevilla and Real Madrid are a proof that this team can compete very well in UCL. I also admit that still not a top contender like Liverpool, City and Bayern since there are some positions to improve, especially the left and right back where Alba and Alves/Dest are both too poor defensively for big games.
Also when the team is not able to push forward then Busquets should be replaced, he is the best when Barcelona plays in the opponent field, but he is horribly slow when he has to cover more area and then together with the bad left/right back limitations the team gets broken. I hope the new signings address this, and since there is not much money for big stars, let's hope Ansu Fati gets fit for good.
Crap competition "La Liga" sends two teams to the CL semifinals.
Guess La Liga is not quite dead just yet.
Pedri out for the rest of the season.
Campeones campeones, olé olé olê
Too bad for him though, hopefully will be fit for the WC
He's risking becoming injury prone, has already missed loads of time this season. Somewhat predictable given how Barça loves to overplay youngsters.
Darder = best CM in the league this season
RDT = 2nd best CF after Benzema
RDT = 2nd best CF after Benzema
That is just an exceedingly stupid penalty to concede. Losing two games to the same team with a 99th and 100th goal in the same season 
What was all the injury time for?
Cracking win today, still got a decent chance of staying up as they are beating teams around them now.
I presume Atletico had their annual scrap around 90th minute to inflate added on time.

Good effort from Martial.
El Nesyri and Rafa Mir benched when they're the strikers actually scoring is interesting call from Lopetegui. Guess he's wanting to keep it tight until the hour mark.
Martial will likely do nothing again and never heard of Tecatito.

This fecking ref Booked Martial for being fouled and injured by Camavinga
Booked Martial for being fouled and injured by CamavingaHow the freekick goal from Rakitic has counted?
Lamela has joined the Real Madrid wall and there is a clear rule, that isn't allowed. VAR did nothing.

Classic ref cowardice.This fecking ref
If he had given the foul for Sevilla, he would've shown a red card for Camavinga.
It's not the ref's fault here that Vinicius has a small arm.
Wow
