Koeman doubled the bet and repeated the eleven of 0-2 in LaLiga, with three centrals, two long lanes in Dest and Alba; and Dembélé as the new Barça striker. It worked for him. Ter Stegen did magic in the Ocampos penalty; Pique he was a leader in defense, Busquets and De Jong they sent in the center of the field and Griezmann came out to give a master pass to Piqué and Braithwaite to finish off the comeback. This was the one by one of the Barcelona team.
Ter Stegen. Magical. He guessed where Ocampos would shoot and kept Barça in the game with his penalty save. Well placed. He was always heard on the field giving instructions to his teammates.
Mingueza. He ruined his game, until then solvent, with his penalty to Ocampos. The red card was played.
Pique. The leader emerged. A player of all passion who ate up the Sevilla forwards, ordered the operations and scored a memorable goal with a header on the hour to put Barça into extra time
Lenglet. He is not sure. He hesitates. A penalty was played that would have ruined the game of his teammates. He lacks firmness and determination. You need a shot of authority and self-esteem.
Jordi Alba. Key in the center of the 3-0 to Braithwaite. It has been a nuisance for Sevilla in the last two games. Depth and also seriousness in defense. He did not suffer with Suso.
Sergiño Dest. The Dutch lane is not precise. He is insistent, but sometimes he plays his own game. Bad in one on one. Try to be deep, but lack clarity.
Busquets. When he left, Barça became unbalanced. It is a watch and makes the team play better even if their physique is no longer for so many trots and they have to be replaced
Pedri. Miraculous recovery and another great game. He moves the team and, if something has to be asked of him, it is a bit more determination in the final meters to shoot.
De Jong. Outstanding. Personality, journey and criteria. Leader in the field.
Dembélé. A genius goal in the 12th minute. It faded as the minutes passed and had to be substituted because it began to ruin the offensive actions. Koeman has invented a striker and he feels comfortable pulling off the mark. When Koeman changed the system, he was less foresighted from the band. But right now it is fundamental for Barça because it gives the imbalance up.
Messi. He did not find the goal, but wanted throughout the game. He marked the times of the same and was the cleverest player of the Barça in the extra time by far. With so much young in the field, he knew that he had to give the break that Junior or Ilaix couldn't.
In the second part they played.
Griezmann. Excellent. For playing without the anger of being a substitute, but with a cool head to help the team. He had the necessary pause to cut back, put the ball on the left and center precisely towards Piqué in the 2-0 action
Braithwaite. In the end he did what was asked of him when he arrived, that it was that kind of Larsson that made saving goals and unblocked games. The 3-0 put Barça in the final.
Ilaix. Very good minutes from the youth squad. Physically he is a marvel, he appears in many places in the field and plays with great judgment and rhythm. He held up very well in the last minutes.
Junior. He came out because Mingueza was on the verge of being sent off and, again as in Seville, and despite playing on the right, he emerged victorious. He is delivering when required and has played more focused than his fame claims.
