Don’t you just hate the games after the international breaks?!
Almost without fail, Barca seem to struggle in the matches that come directly afterwards, no matter the opponents.
Maybe there was also a little too much complacency in the side given that Valladolid have been struggling and with 12 players out for a variety of reasons, this was going to be a walk in the park wasn’t it...
As we’ve seen so many times before, Cadiz being the prime example, Barca find it difficult to break down teams that sit 10 men behind the ball and then spring out on the counterattaack.
