Barcelona’s troubles in La Liga continued with a 1-2 loss to Las Palmas at Montjuic, their second defeat in three league games, putting their lead at the top of the table at risk.
The team’s performance was underwhelming, and they failed to recover after Las Palmas scored their second goal. The absence of Marc Casado, suspended due to a red card, was keenly felt, as Barcelona struggled with control and stability in midfield.
Recent form has raised concerns, with Barcelona dropping eight points from their last nine league matches. Real Madrid now has the chance to overtake them if they win their games in hand. The team’s inability to maintain consistent form has sparked questions about accountability.
While the players have shown effort, fatigue is starting to take its toll. The demanding tactical system of manager Hansi Flick has led to some expected mistakes, but Flick’s management isn’t the issue, and the players have given their best.
Barcelona must now view this slump as a temporary setback and regroup for the upcoming challenges. They need to find a way to regain their form and momentum if they are to remain competitive for the La Liga title.
