Barça is a hammer

While others suffer and take each day as an exercise of resistance, Barça has entered the phase of enjoying and crushing like a roller. Koeman's team offered Real Sociedad a display of power to be reckoned with. The 1-6 win was a tremendous message. They are no longer the 18 games in a row without losing in the League, the nine consecutive victories as a visitor and the 48 of 54 points achieved; it's the way to play.

Closing the day after direct rivals has its pros and cons. When you have seen Sevilla tie in the discount with a goal from their goalkeeper, Madrid sentence in the last minute after a shot to the opponent's post and Atlético save three points with Oblak saving a penalty in the 82nd minute, the bar was high and the message seemed clear: it was time to suffer. But faced with this challenge, the Barça fans responded with a brutal game.

Faced with Anoeta's challenge, Koeman repeated the starting eleven compared to the last game, with De Jong as central, seeking to maintain a self-confidence that two months ago was conspicuous by its absence. La Real continued to do the same as always against the Blaugrana team, but this Barça has grown a lot in recent months.

Imanol raised the game to a direct duel in a one on one to the entire field that left Koeman's team without knowing very well how to get his hands on a game that began playing to the limit. Both teams were looking for the error in the opponent's ball exit and it was the locals who had the first great chance to hit first, but Ter Stegen won the duel against Isak.

Barcelona was more successful from the start on a day when aim was everything. In a recovery of the ball from Barça in the opposite field, Messi enabled Alba, who gave half a goal to Dembélé, who certified that he is not a center forward, but the rejection of Remiro was picked up by Griezmann to score the first. The Frenchman of Barça repeated ownership when he had all the pronouncements against and scored a great game on his thirtieth anniversary in every way. He defended, ran, created and finished.

After the 0-1, Barça again invited the rival to enter the game with an absurd error, but Ter Stegen again solved the failure against Isak in what was the prelude to Barça's second goal. Almost traced in the argument to the first, but by the other band. Recovery of the ball, this time from Busquets, ball to Messi, who assisted Dest so that he scored a 0-2 that reflected much more than what had been seen on the grass. Barça's aim, so deviated so many times, was decisive in the first act.

If Barça finished the first half in a voracious way, the start of the second was an extension of the Blaugrana hammer. Eight minutes into the extension, Dest scored the third in the play dreamed of by any coach who draws a scheme with two lanes: Alba's arrival on the left and Dest's shot on the right. CWith the Real knocked out, Busquets put the icing on a professorial performance with a measured pass to Messi that liquidated the local defense to score the fourth.

Barça, for the first time in a long time, gave unmistakable symptoms of enjoying themselves on the field adorning themselves and making a rival dizzy that, now, he was receiving the punishment set by the scoreboard, which already reflected the difference between the two teams and that Dembélé was in charge of sealing with a fabulous goal.

With the game crazy, because Barça wanted more and Real did not give up, Barrenetxea scored the goal (great goal) of honor, which motivated Barça's final arreón, which again accelerated for Messi to score the sixth. A hammer.
