Barcelona signed off what has been yet another chaotic campaign with a disappointing defeat to Villarreal. The hosts had nothing to play for, and it showed, while Villarreal did and took all three points to secure a Europa Conference League spot.
It’s a first ever win for Unai Emery at the Camp Nou and continues Barcelona’s unimpressive home form this season. The Camp Nou used to be a fortress but the Catalans have lost seven times in all competitions in front of their own supporters in 2021-22.
The overall record reads 13 wins, 5 draws and 7 defeats from 25 games in all competitions and is one of many things that needs to be rectified if Xavi’s side are to go on and win titles next season.
