Dimitrovic: He was safe, on his line. He cleared with his foot a 'one against one' with Tello as if he were a handball goalkeeper, preventing Betis from going ahead on the scoreboard, in one of the key actions of the match. In the second part he gave security to his companions.
Rober Correa: He repeated for the second game in a row as a right back defender. He cleared a dangerous cross well from the right wing. Joel gave him the penalty that Esteban Burgos converted to make it 0-2.
Esteban Burgos: He replaced the injured Paulo Oliveira in the right central defender position. The Argentine served in the rear and scored a penalty (the second maximum penalty that he transforms and third goal this season) the 0-2, which he dedicated to Diego Armando Maradona, his compatriot who died a few days ago. He is the highest-scoring defender in the First Division and is equaled by Barça's top scorer, Kike García, with 3 goals (the Cuenca player has only scored as a play). He was able to increase his scoring account, but a shot of his in the area was deflected by Borja Iglesias and the ball ended up being cleared by Yoel.
Pedro Bigas: He played as a left central defender. He failed to attempt a clearance on a deep ball to Tello, in an action in which Dmitrovic stopped. He complied for the rest of the meeting.
Arbilla: He acted as a left back defender trying to cover up another veteran, Joaquín, who did not create excessive danger. He tried to surprise goalkeeper Joel with a long-distance shot (more than 50 meters) from his field, which went wide. The Barça captain stood firmly behind.
Pape Diop: He gave the center that Bryan Gil headed, Joel cleared, in the action in which Inui scored, but the goal was disallowed. He did a great physical job putting pressure on the rivals in the center of the field and life was not complicated with the ball, with simple passes. He helped in defensive tasks in the area when Betis cuddled at the end.
Edu Exposito: He played double pivot alongside Pape Diop trying to create play, although at times he was too late, close to defense. The Catalan formed a good tandem with the Senegalese in the midfield.
Antonio Pozo: As a right winger he stole a fundamental ball with his pressure that started the play of Inui's annulled goal. In the second half he crossed the ball to Rober Correa in the action in which Joel scored a penalty. In addition, the one on loan from Sevilla collaborated in containment tasks
Bryan Gil: He acted as a midfielder initially, and then as a left winger to try to provoke the second yellow card from Emerson, the Verdiblanco right-back defender who was substituted at half-time for this reason. The player loaned by Sevilla was the most unbalanced Barça attacker, although he did fouls that were not whistled and sometimes he abused himself by wanting to do everything himself. He headed a good pass from Pape Diop, which Joel touched, the ball went into the goal, but Inui made a mistake when he hit the goal line, because the play was canceled. He took the corner that headed to goal Muto in the 0-1. Then he tried to score with a shot inside the area what would have been the third goal, but Joel avoided it with a good save.
Inui: He returned to Benito Villamarín as a left winger, although later he played as a midfielder. 'He screwed up' by pushing a ball headed by Bryan Gil that entered the goal, over the goal line, for which the goal was canceled for offside by the Japanese after being reviewed in the VAR. He did a favor to Betis (his ex-team) and hurt Eibar, his current team, although the Japanese did not know that he was in an illegal position. Bartra gave him a penalty when the Japanese went ahead of the defender and was knocked down, although later Yoel stopped Sergi Enrich's penalty. In the overall balance of the party, he was successful in his return to ownership.
Muto: He played his second game in a row as a starting striker, although this time he acted alone (Kike García was suspended), as the spearhead of a 4-2-3-1. He provoked the corner kick with a good pass in which the Japanese scored with his foot the first goal of the match (0-1), with Eibar, and also in the First Division. He did a good job in attack and also in defensive tasks, putting pressure on the rivals. He was physically overwhelmed by the great effort made.
Sergi Enrich: He played in the last quarter of an hour, replacing Muto in the lead, who ended up physically devastated. He worked for the good of the team, helping in defensive tasks. He received a blow to the face that left him somewhat dizzy. He wanted to release his goalscoring locker this season, but his penalty shot was stopped by Yoel.
Sergio Alvarez: He jumped onto the pitch in injury time replacing Bryan Gil, acting in the position of 'midfielder (Eibar finished the last minutes with 3 pivots). He did not have time to touch the ball.
