Hi community!

The Blaugranas suffered more than expected last season to beat the team from Huesca.

Barcelona already played in Barbastro last season. It was on January 7, 2023, and the Catalans qualified for the round of 16 after winning 2-3. It was an unpleasant match for the Catalans, who ended up with players of the caliber of Lewandowski, GΓΌndogan, Araujo and Ferran Torres on the pitch.

"The games have to be played, it is almost impossible to eliminate a big team, but last year we already overshadowed a whole Barça," Javito recalled before the draw. And, minutes later, the draw indicated that, for the second consecutive year, the Catalan team would travel to Huesca.

The match quickly became a pleasant one for the Catalans, when Fermin made it 0-1 on the scoreboard in the 18th minute. The first half was a period of Barça pressure, but the score was short-lived and anything can happen in the Cup. But Raphinha seemed to have sealed the deal in the 51st minute. Nothing could be further from the truth, Barbastro, encouraged by their 6,000 fans, found themselves 1-2, after a mistake by the Catalans, with half an hour to go. Xavi made some changes to the bench in the face of the doubts expressed by the team.

Players of the calibre of GΓΌndogan and Lewandowski came on to the pitch. The Pole sealed the match in the 88th minute from the penalty spot. But the match still had one more chapter, when Barbastro made it 2-3 from the penalty spot. It remains to be seen whether the Catalans will suffer less this January.

On the other hand, the positive note is that it is a comfortable trip for the Blaugranas, as the two locations only take a little over two hours by coach.

See You soon! 🏐
