  • Lewandowski pone en orden a Mbappé y Raphinha


    2025-01-26

    El Barcelona se reencontró con la victoria liguera en el Olímpico Lluis Companys dos meses después y lo hizo con el modo apisonadora que trituró al Valencia (7-1), incapaz de dar una respuesta de peso a los jugadores de Hansi Flick, quienes declararon con su magnífico juego y eficacia que siguen en la pelea por el título pese a los siete puntos que tienen de desventaja respecto al Real Madrid.

    La última victoria como local en LaLiga del Barça se remontaba al 3 de noviembre en el derbi ante el Espanyol. Desde entonces llegó el bajón más absoluto e inesperado. Las Palmas, Leganés y Atlético de Madrid se llevaron los tres puntos y con ellos, unidos a los tropiezos en Vigo, Sevilla y Getafe, perdió la ventaja, el liderato y entregó el mando a su eterno rival.

    Real Madrid mira por el retrovisor al Barcelona a pesar del triunfo: así marcha la tabla de posiciones de LaLiga de España

    Entremedias había dejado señales de su poderío principalmente en la Supercopa ante Athletic y Real Madrid, en la Copa del Rey frente al Betis y en LaLiga en Mallorca, e incluso en la ‘Champions’ con los apurados pero vibrantes triunfos en Dortmund y Lisboa, pero necesitaba imperiosamente no volver a fallar en casa para impedir que el cuadro de Carlo Ancelotti se marchara a los diez puntos de renta después de vencer el sábado en Valladolid (0-3).

    Flick, al margen de devolver la titularidad en la portería a Wojciech Szczesny, dio descanso al defensa uruguayo Ronald Araujo y al delantero Robert Lewandowski, cuya ausencia no acusó lo más mínimo porque el equipo fue un vendaval que no encontró respuesta en un Valencia que había dado buenas sensaciones desde la llegada al banquillo de Carlos Corberán y que sucumbió por todo lo alto en Montjuic para seguir hundido en la penúltima plaza a cuatro puntos de la salvación.

    Nunca en su historia liguera había encajado cuatro tantos antes de los primeros 25 minutos y las facilidades que dio las aprovechó el Barcelona para instalarse con un 4-0 a los 24 con los goles de Frenkie de Jong (m.3), Ferran Torres (m.8), el brasileño Raphinha (m.14) y Fermín López (m.24).

    No le salió nada al Valencia y todo al Barcelona. Incluso el colegiado César Soto Grado dio marcha atrás después de señalar un penalti de Szczesny sobre Hugo Duro por entender, tras acudir al vídeo, que en el inicio de la jugada había existido falta de José Luis Gayá sobre Jules Kounde.

    Nuevo mazazo que tuvo su culminación en la primera parte con el quinto tanto, de nuevo obra de Fermín. 5-0 al intermedio y podían haber sido más de no haber malogrado varias oportunidades bastante claras.

    Ni siquiera el hecho de levantar algo el pie del acelerador del equipo de Flick y de un tanto de Hugo Duro justo antes de la hora supuso un alivio para el Valencia. El técnico alemán comenzó a mover el banquillo. Justo después de la diana visitante dio entrada a Lewandowski, que seis minutos después de pisar el césped reanudó la goleada, cerrada por un autogol de César Tárrega (m.75).

    La victoria permite al Barcelona seguir a siete puntos del Real Madrid, acercarse a tres del Atlético de Madrid, que el sábado empató ante el Villarreal (1-1), y mantener la tercera posición, ahora con dos de ventaja sobre el Athletic, que también igualó en San Mamés frente al Leganés (0-0).

    El equipo de Ernesto Valverde, pese a su constante ataque, no fue capaz de derribar el ordenado sistema organizado por Borja Jiménez, entrenador del equipo madrileño, que incluso tuvo varias buenas ocasiones para regresar con una victoria de la ‘Catedral’.

    Un par de remates de Dani Vivian y Alex Berenguer, uno en cada periodo, fueron las mejores oportunidades de un Athletic sin claridad que vio cómo su rival se topó con los palos: el primero en el minuto 51 en un cabezazo de Miguel de la Fuente y el segundo en el 88 en un disparo desde fuera del área de Munir El Haddadi que repelió el larguero.

    La lucha por el resto de plazas europeas se aprieta más cada jornada que pasa. Entre el Mallorca, sexto, y el Sevilla, duodécimo, hay tan solo tres puntos de diferencia. Entremedias está, a uno de los baleares, el Rayo Vallecano, a dos Girona, Real Sociedad y Betis, y a tres también Osasuna.

    El conjunto rayista dio un auténtico disgusto a una de sus grandes leyendas, Míchel Sánchez, entrenador del Girona. Tenía el triunfo encaminado con una diana del internacional Bryan Gil (m.58), pero nunca se rindieron los hombres de Íñigo Pérez, que con su intensidad le dieron la vuelta al partido (2-1).

    Dos jugadores que comenzaron el partido en el banquillo, Álvaro García y Randy Nteka, cambiaron la decoración a la contienda. Dos asistencias del andaluz y dos remates del delantero franco-angoleño en tres minutos (80 y 83) sellaron el definitivo 2-1 que supone la primera victoria del Rayo sobre el cuadro catalán en Primera y el séptimo encuentro del equipo de la franja sin perder.

    Todo lo contrario para el Girona, que encajó su tercera derrota seguida entre liga y ‘Champions’, víctima también del acierto del meta argentino Augusto Batalla, providencial con tres grandes intervenciones en la prolongación.

    Otro ‘euroequipo’ como la Real Sociedad también perdió su tercer partido esta semana, en su caso al caer en su feudo del Reale Arena ante un contundente Getafe (0-3), que con siete puntos en los tres últimos encuentros alivia su situación y se instala a tres del Espanyol, que marca el descenso.

    “Ha sido una vergüenza de partido por nuestra parte”, admitió a pie de campo nada más terminar el japonés Take Kubo, como siempre muy sincero. El equipo de Imanol Alguacil estuvo muy tierno en ambas áreas y lo pagó muy caro.

    La salida al campo de Borja Mayoral al poco de cumplirse la hora fue determinante. No marcó, pero un disparo suyo acabó en el primer gol del partido, conseguido por el nigeriano Christantus Uche (m.72). Sin tiempo para que la Real Sociedad reaccionara, tan solo dos minutos después, sufrió un nuevo varapalo con el primer tanto de Carles Pérez, que puso la guinda a poco del final con el doblete.

    Del Barcelona a jugar con Benzema, la decisión con Endrick y la respuesta de Kimmich al Real Madrid

    El triunfo en San Sebastián completa una racha de cinco partidos oficiales en los que el conjunto madrileño ha conseguido cuatro victorias (dos en la Copa del Rey) y unas tablas. El sello que impone José Bordalás, innegociable, polémico a veces, basado en el orden, el esfuerzo y el juego directo, comienza a dar sus frutos pese a las carencias de una plantilla muy corta.

    -Tabla de goleadores en España-

    R. Lewandowski (Barcelona) – 17

    K. Mbappé (Real Madrid) – 15

    Raphinha (Barcelona) – 12

    A. Budimir (Osasuna) – 10

    D. Lukebakio (Sevilla) – 9

    Vinícius (Real Madrid) – 8

    A. Pérez (Villarreal) – 8

    A. Sorloth (Atl. de Madrid) 8

    K. García (Alavés) – 8



    Robert Lewandowski, el delantero estrella del Bayern Munich, ha demostrado una vez más su calidad y liderazgo en el campo al poner en orden a dos jóvenes promesas del fútbol mundial: Kylian Mbappé y Raphinha.

    En el reciente partido entre el Bayern Munich y el Paris Saint-Germain, Lewandowski se enfrentó a Mbappé, una de las estrellas emergentes del fútbol, y a Raphinha, la joven promesa del Leeds United. A lo largo del encuentro, el delantero polaco demostró su superioridad y experiencia al marcar dos goles y liderar a su equipo hacia la victoria.

    Con su imponente presencia en el área y su capacidad para definir con precisión, Lewandowski dejó en claro quién es el verdadero referente en el terreno de juego. Además, su capacidad para influir en el desempeño de sus compañeros y para motivarlos a dar lo mejor de sí mismos fue evidente en la forma en que Mbappé y Raphinha fueron neutralizados por la defensa del Bayern Munich.

    En definitiva, Lewandowski demostró una vez más por qué es considerado uno de los mejores delanteros del mundo y cómo su liderazgo y calidad pueden marcar la diferencia en un partido de alto nivel. Sin duda, su actuación contra Mbappé y Raphinha fue un claro ejemplo de su grandeza en el fútbol actual.

  • Barcelona’s Raphinha hits back at Benfica insults after win


    Match winner Raphinha said Benfica insults sparked a scuffle in the tunnel after his stoppage-time goal earned Barcelona a remarkable 5-4 comeback win at the Estádio da Luz in the Champions League on Tuesday.

    Raphinha’s 96th-minute strike was just one part of a sensational ending in the pouring Lisbon rain, with Benfica coach Bruno Lage then dressing his players down on the pitch at full time after they had led 3-1 and 4-2.

    The drama continued as the players headed down the tunnel, with Raphinha at the center of the commotion as both teams clashed.

    “I’m someone who respects everyone,” Raphinha, who previously played for Benfica’s rivals Sporting CP, told reporters after the game. “When I was leaving the pitch, people were insulting me. I returned the insults. I know I shouldn’t. It got heated with the Benfica players … they preferred to insult me.

    “I’m someone who doesn’t let anything lie. I respect them if they respect me, but I don’t shut up if they insult me. It’s normal after an ending like that to a match.”

    A barely believable night had preceded those events, with Raphinha saying he’s in the best form of his career after scoring twice as Barça made it six successive wins in the Champions League to book their passage directly to the round of 16.

    Raphinha’s winner was his eighth in Europe this season — only bettered by teammate Robert Lewandowski‘s nine — and took his tally in all competitions for the campaign to a career-high 22.

    “I think I am in the best moment of my career, yes,” the Brazilian international added. “We knew it would be hard here, we knew how good they were, especially playing in front of their fans, their players individually and as a team, but what matters is that we knew to keep our focus during the entire game.

    “We had the mindset that we could turn the game around after the break, scoring a second to get back into the game and we managed to do it in the end. We never gave up and grabbed a win.”

    Benfica had earlier taken advantage of several Barça mistakes to lead 3-1 at half-time courtesy of a hat trick from Vangelis Pavlidis.

    The Greece international opened the scoring in the second minute and completed his treble inside half an hour after Lewandowski had briefly levelled from the penalty spot.

    Pavlidis rolled his second goal into an empty net after goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny had taken out his own defender, Alejandro Balde, when coming for the ball.

    He then completed his hat trick with a penalty after Szczęsny fouled Kerem Aktürkoğlu.

    “It was a crazy game,” Barça coach Hansi Flick said in a news conference. “Benfica did really well, especially in the first half, but we made a lot of mistakes. We didn’t defend very good.

    “It’s important we speak about this. The next opponents will look at this match and we have to make it better. We will do that.

    “At half-time we said we wanted to change something; we need better positioning. And we said we want to come back.”

    Another goalkeeping error gave Barça a route back into the game, with Anatoliy Trubin‘s drilled pass ricocheting off Raphinha’s head 20 yards out and rebounding back into the goal.

    A Ronald Araújo own goal looked to have sealed the points for Benfica, but a second Lewandowski penalty and an Eric García header inside the final 12 minutes set up a grandstand finish as both sides went all out for the win.

    Szczęsny made a super save from Ángel Di María and minutes later, as Benfica appealed for a penalty, Raphinha was sent through at the other end to seal the win.

    “The best thing is the mentality of the team in the second half, they always believe in themselves,” Flick added. “It’s unbelievable. I was happy with one point, but with three it’s much better. It was a great finish. We invest a lot in the second half, we create more chances and we deserved it.”

    The victory means Barça have booked their place in the round of 16 with a game to spare, at home to Italian side Atalanta next week.

    Therefore, they dodge two extra fixtures in February, when teams that finish between 9th and 24th will take place in a two-legged knockout tie for a place in the round of 16.

    “Reaching directly the final 16, this will help us a lot for the rest of the season, I am 100% sure about that,” Flick said. “The most important thing is we need time to train. This is very important. You can see in the match we are making mistakes, but there is no opportunity to train things in the two days or one day we have.

    “It’s all about recovery, getting back the energy and to be fit for match day. For the players it’s really tough.”



    Barcelona’s Raphinha hits back at Benfica insults after win

    Barcelona’s Raphinha has responded to recent insults hurled at him by Benfica fans after his team’s victory in the Champions League. The Brazilian winger, who scored a crucial goal in the match, took to social media to address the criticism he received from Benfica supporters.

    In his post, Raphinha expressed his disappointment at the disrespectful comments made towards him and his teammates. He emphasized that he and his colleagues always give their best on the pitch and deserve respect, regardless of the result of the game.

    Raphinha went on to say that he is proud to represent Barcelona and will continue to work hard to bring success to the club. He urged fans to show sportsmanship and respect towards all players, regardless of the team they play for.

    The winger’s response has been well-received by Barcelona fans, who have shown their support for him on social media. Raphinha’s professionalism and maturity in handling the situation have further endeared him to the club’s supporters.

    As Barcelona prepares for their next match, Raphinha’s focus remains on performing at his best and helping his team achieve their goals. His determination and resilience in the face of adversity make him a valuable asset to the club, both on and off the pitch.

    1. Raphinha to score against Benfica

    Since departing for Barcelona from Leeds United, the Brazilian has been a constant in the starting XI for the Catalan side.

    He’s improved so much this season though, bettering his previous seasons tallies in much less time and there’s still much more football to play.

    He’s scored 11 in La Liga already having previously scored seven and six in his first two seasons with the Spanish club.

    He’s bound to be involved in the goals tonight in Portugal as he’s netted six in the UCL in just six appearances along with two assists as Barcelona have proven themselves after an early slip up.

    They are now aiming to win six in a row and really cement their place in the top eight to progress straight into the knockouts.

    2. Mohamed Salah to score against Lille

    Salah has been so consistent for Liverpool, not many would think he’d be able to better his recent season’s goal scoring records.

    But he’s netted as many as 18 in just 21 appearances for the Reds under Arne Slot.

    And though his future at the club is up in the air he’s clearly relishing his time there helping to lead them to go unbeaten in the UCL and go clear at the top of the Premier League.

    Salah is used to scoring plenty in the Champions League with a minimum of four goals every season in each of his previous six campaigns with the Reds.

    3. Julian Alvarez to score against Leverkusen

    Alvarez has won the Premier League, the World Cup, essentially everything you could win, despite only being 24.

    He’s settled straight into La Liga with Atletico Madrid since departing Man City last season.

    He’s scored six in 20 appearances in the league but has almost just as many in Europe with four goals in just six appearances.

    The Champions League can often see many more goals as sides go all out to achieve a win, which goes even further this season to go through to the next rounds.

    Atletico have their work cut out for them against a strong German side, but could surprise a few considering they’re in tremendous form.
