Barcelona were content with a 1-1 draw against their rivals and hosts, Getafe, in the Spanish League.<\/p>\n
Barcelona’s points rose to 39 after today’s draw, placing them third in the Spanish League standings, while Getafe is in sixteenth place with 20 points.
\nBarcelona will play the next round against Valencia at Los C\u00f3npanys Stadium on January 26, while Getafe will play at Sociedad Stadium on the same day.<\/p>\n
Barcelona continues its series of setbacks in La Liga, having only achieved one win in the last 8 matches, a disastrous record that makes it impossible for Barcelona to compete for the title with such a performance.
\nAccording to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional”, German coach Hansi Flick is very upset and angry about the setback against Getafe and the continued loss of points in La Liga.<\/p>\n
The newspaper added that Flick scolded Barcelona duo Robert Lewandowski and Brazilian Raphinha after the match, holding them responsible for the team’s draw tonight due to their squandering of many easy chances to decide the match.
\nThe German coach threatened the duo with exclusion from the team’s starting lineup if they continued at this level in La Liga: “Continuing at this level in La Liga will make us struggle for a Champions League qualifying position.”<\/p>\n
Flick did not stop there, deciding to exclude Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde from the team’s lineup in the upcoming matches due to his poor performance this season.
\nThe newspaper indicated that Flick is urging Deco to sign a left-back before the winter transfer window closes to save the Catalan team’s season.<\/p>\n
The newspaper added that Laporta, Barcelona’s president, went down to the team’s locker room after the match and exploded in the faces of the players and Hansi Flick due to Barcelona’s stumbling in the last 7 out of 8 matches played in the league.
\nLaporta asked Flick not to rely on Polish forward Robert Lewandowski in Barcelona’s squad, otherwise, he will ruin the team’s season in a completely unexpected way.<\/p>\n
The Polish player has become a burden on Barcelona due to his advanced age and his wasting of easy chances in front of the opponent’s goal, and this match is not the first time for him.
\nThe newspaper concluded that Laporta spoke angrily with Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, expressing his dissatisfaction with the level Rafinha showed in this match, saying: “It seems that he wanted to remind us of his disastrous performance in the past years. What a disgusting level.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
