Raise 3-Barcelona 3 | The Barça self-destructs

Barcelona was erased from the fight for LaLiga in the most painful way. After dominating the first half 0-2, Koeman's men were absent from the game at the beginning of the second, they let the duel tie and when they did the most difficult and took the lead, chaos took hold of the players again. blaugrana who let themselves be tied in an exercise of self-destruction never seen before and end up tying at three before a lift that certified their permanence.

Throughout this course, Barcelona have shown that they feel much more comfortable in extreme situations than in those in which they have the hand of the game. And before Levante he was before the ropes. Tired of seeing LaLiga go by like cows see the train go by, the Blaugrana team came out onto the Orriols lawn with a spirit that had been missed in recent days. When he had everything within his grasp, he sadly committed suicide.

Koeman brought Dembélé into the starting eleven in an invitation for the game to become unpredictable. The French winger is the closest thing to Peter Sellers in the Guateque. Able to slip in his own area and minutes later win a dizzying sprint to give away a goal. The staging of Barcelona was that of a team that needed to overcome a 3-0 in a tie. He bottled Levante and in five minutes he had two clear chances to get ahead on the scoreboard, but Pedri missed both times.

After the initial storm of Barça, Levante recovered and reacted, but the Blaugrana team had the Messi card left, which the first time he had it inside. The Argentine executed a pure center forward shot that would be signed by the best Luis Suárez to put Barça ahead, which was virtually conquering the leadership.

Already in advantage, Barça once again sank the rival with a grown Messi who both kicked and assisted or started the play that earned Demebélé show his speed to give a goal, now, impossible to fail for Pedri, which was retaliating for its initial failures.

At the beginning of the second half, Koeman removed Araújo from the field, who was limping on his left ankle (the one that has tormented him since the beginning of the season) to admit Sergi Roberto. A midfielder who is normally a full-back playing center-back. A risky bet, as it turned out. The tragedy began.

The beginning of the second part was absolutely the opposite of the first. As if a new proof were needed that Barça, when they feel at an advantage, aboba, those of Koeman took the field inviting Levante to overcome the game. Barça began to lose balls, to stop being intense and to give the image of a cow looking at the train. The locals seemed the first to be surprised by the facilities offered by the virtual leader. It took 12 minutes for the local team to take the invitation seriously until Melero shot Ter Stegen head-on against a transparent Sergi Roberto.

There was no sign of Barça in the first half, who decided to commit suicide again on the fast track and three minutes after the first local goal, in a catastrophic play by the Catalans, Morales tied the game. Barça returned to its ideal state, that of torture. What remained to be seen was whether he would be in time to do so.

And in these chaotic situations, nobody like Dembélé to appear at the most unexpected moment to mark the third that should serve for Barça to prevail. But again, Barça's capacity for self-destruction is infinite. Toño did what he wanted with Dest and put a ball to Sergio León that tied the game with a goal that was the culé's self-destruction button in this League. Of all the ways to throw a league, Barça chose the most painful.
