Following Real Madrid’s victory at the Bernabéu against Getafe, Xavi Hernández’s men were forced to win at Cornellá if they wanted to sing the alirón on their rival neighbours’ grounds. And that’s what they’ve done. With ease, even, as they went into halftime with a 3-0 win. Koundé joined the party in the second half. Javi Puado and Joselu marked down.

90′ + 2′ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL THE JOSELU!!!!! SPANISH 2-4 Barcelona. Joselu reduces distances!! Defensive passivity from the blaugranas in a corner, Cabrera heads and hits the woods with his head. Koundé falls asleep in goal on Joselu, who scores at will for Ter Stegen.
73′ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!! ESPAOL 1-4 Barcelona. Javi Puado makes up for the defeat!!! Fernando Calero hits a deep ball that passes Joselu Mato and falls to a Javi Puado who is in good position while Andreas Christensen stays off the hook. In the one-on-one with Ter Stegen, the youth player defines with a subtle lob that outshines the German.
53′ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL BY JULES KOUNDÉ!!!!! Espanyol 0-4 BARCELONA. Koundé is there!!! The blues and whites plant the defensive line and watch the ball from afar, not appreciating what is coming from behind. Koundé wins Javi Puado’s place and connects his header with a frontal ball from Frenkie de Jong.
Rest in Cornella de Llobregat!!! Barcelona’s powerful correction destroys Espanyol (3-0) and counts down the minutes to sing definitively and mathematically the alirón of a league that has ruled with an iron fist since the return of the World Cup. A brace from Robert Lewandowski and a goal from Alejandro Balde show the difference between the next LaLiga champion and a team whose future paints black. The parakeet team’s defensive provisions lead the Catalans to victory.

twenty’ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL BY ALEJANDRO BALDE!!!!! Espanyol 0-2 BARCELONA. Bucket increases the differences on the scoreboard!! Raphinha faces Brian Oliván, leaning on a Pedri who receives inside the box and looks for space until he crosses to the far post. Óscar Gil loses the goal with the culé youth team, who finally scores the canary’s serve.
eleven’ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL BY ROBERT LEWANDOWSKI!!!!!!!! Espanyol 0-1 BARCELONA. Lewandowski opens the score!!! Alejandro Balde breaks into space on a diagonal ball from Ronald Araújo, grabs hold of Óscar Gil’s back and then moves away from him with great ease. His center after rushing the bottom line is finished off first by Robert Lewandowski to beat Fernando Pacheco.
The formation with which Barcelona will try to proclaim itself champion.
