Barcelona 1-Granada 2 | Granada drowns Barça on the shore

The scriptwriter of this League is a genius who would already like to sign the promoters of other competitions that aspire to monopolize the world of entertainment. An example is Barça's tendency to suicide and drowning on the shore, which is as infinite as the faith of this Granada that is making history and that shows that there are teams that deserve legendary results despite having done their homework. Granada's victory at the Camp Nou by 1-2 is a bombshell that changes the scenery of a League that seemed designed to enter its last five days with Barcelona leading the table after completing an unprecedented comeback, which sank at the least expected moment. When everything was in favor of Koemans, they were shipwrecked and changed the landscape of an exciting championship.

Barça had the leadership in his hand, depending on himself to win the championship and when he had the best hand on the table, he threw down the cards, went to smoke and when he came back they had even raised his mother's medal. It is up to the culé team to row again, to get off the canvas in a championship that seems like a fight between half-heard fighters who alternate disturbing moments on the canvas with attacks of rage. Barça had to kiss the canvas yesterday in an exercise of impotence. Maybe he gets up or falls off the ring hunting flies.

Granada was a much smarter team than Barça, who sinned from altitude sickness. A pandemic that affects any team May this championship be one step away from glory. They are all so fair, that it seems that they prefer to protect themselves and manage from the outset to impose their law. It happened to Atlético in San Mamés, it happens often to Real Madrid and yesterday it happened to Barcelona. Seeing the sun so close is dazzling.

Nobody has understood that to win LaLiga you have to be crazy and predatory. There are teams that only know how to chase and that when they are overtaking rivals, as happened to Barcelona at the time Messi scored 1-0, they worry more about looking in the rearview mirror than at the road. And Granada took advantage of this absorption by culé to honor its gigantic season.

Granada is a team that already knows that it has triumphed this year and that is why it does not look in the rear-view mirror. Unapologetic, well planted, brave and competitive. He is not better than Barça, but he competes better than Barça.

Koeman said that he was not going to touch on what worked and that he was not going to mediate that four undisputed starters were one card away from missing the next game. He put them in the fray and in that sense the bet was a success. They were not reprimanded, but it was still better to have a card and win.

Barça came out to play giving the feeling that it was another day at the office. Far from going out to full train, the blaugrana team came out to mature a game that this season they have lost many times. He lost it again.

From the outset, the plan went half well, because Messi is here, of course. His goal in the 24th minute after an assist from Griezmann seemed to open the door to glory. The result of an exercise in patience.

Messi's argument was the main and only threat from a team that seems to have come to the conclusion that success depends more on solidity than on ambition. And that does not stop being a betrayal in the style of a culture that when it has won it has been by being ambitious and aggressive.

Against Granada, Barça opted for prudence, never intimidated, limited itself to controlling a game against an uncontrollable and rebellious rival who in two lashes in the second half broke all the Catalans dreams and showed Barça that the shore is further away than believed. So far, he has drowned again when he touched the wall. And it's his fault, for stopping swimming.
