Barcelona achieved an exciting victory over its host, the stubborn Villarreal team, by four goals to three in the match that took place between them today, Sunday, in the third round of the Spanish Premier League.
The match witnessed many transformations, as Barcelona advanced with two clean goals in the first quarter of an hour, then fell behind by three goals, before Ferran Torres and Lewandowski scored two goals in a row, so that the Catalan team grabbed three precious points in a difficult stadium.
Lamine Yamal excelled in the match remarkably and got the highest rating from Sport newspaper, which is 8/10, jointly with Ferran Torres, who got the same rating.
On the other hand, during its evaluation of the Barcelona players after the match, the Sport newspaper gave the worst evaluation of Sergi Roberto with four degrees out of ten, before amending it later to five degrees.
The newspaper proved this, saying: “He was inconsistent, it was difficult for him to face the duo of Villarreal Pedraza and Pena. Roberto suffered from Villarreal’s attacking aggression on this side, but it wasn’t easy.
And they added, “And Gundogan and Lamine did not help enough in defensive work in the first 45 minutes. And it appears in the form of Villarreal’s three goals, as he was unable to cover his back well. But he improved offensively in the second half.
