If it is true that Koeman plays his place in the next three games, he will have to be careful. If Barça believes that the calendar is affordable this week, too. Last season, the Catalans 'shot' ten points against their next three rivals, Granada, Cádiz and Levante. Each one in their time, those setbacks were decisive in their final goodbye to the 2020-21 League.
Chronologically, the first to make paper for him was Cádiz. In the old Carranza, Barça was a nonsense in defense and gave away both goals. The 2-1, signed by Negredo, after a triple error by Jordi Alba, Lenglet and, mainly, Ter Stegen, who crashed the ball into the rival and allowed the forward's goal. Before, Mingueza, and again the goalkeeper, with problems in the aerial balls, had allowed the 1-0. The result hurt Barça. But it did not stay there. In the second round, and with the game coming to an end with 1-0, Barça fell asleep and Lenglet, in one of the many absurd penalties he committed during the season, kicked Sobrino. Áex Fernández scored the penalty and cut Barça's comeback in LaLiga. Up to five points flew against Cádiz de Álvaro.
Pero the great LaLiga thrust for Barça came at the end of April. After a spectacular comeback, with triumphs of merit in Anoeta, San Mamés, Villamarín, Sánchez Pizjuán, La Cerámica stadium, The Catalans played against Granada the postponed match of the day in which they had played the Cup final against Athletic. If they won, they were, with 74 points, ahead of Atlético de Madrid (73) and Real Madrid (71). And Barça started winning but, in a horrible end of the game, he let go and fell 1-2. There he signed his sentence in the League. The team fell and, after drawing against Atlético, traveled to Valencia to visit Levante in Orriols. After having the match 0-2, he fell asleep and the granota tied at two. Dembélé made it 2-3, but Barça was not able to control the game and ended up drawing a tie and drawing the white flag, especially Ter Stegen, who was already half injured at the time and conceded a goal almost on every shot. Nothing less than ten points thrown in a diabolical trilogy that now comes in three consecutive days. There is not a League at stake, but perhaps the continuity of a coach is at stake, so Koeman and his dressing room should not trust themselves.
