Barca Blaugranes · Feb 25, 2022
In old Napoli, a Barcelona performance that’s amore!
Barcelona will have had every team left in the Europa League sitting up and taking notice after Thursday night’s performance at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
Progress is very definitely being made by Xavi and everything came together perfectly against Napoli.
Forget the pretty passing carousels for which the Blaugranes have become known, though they were a visual feast nonetheless.
It was the relentless nature of the pressing that was the singular most decisive part of the 90 minuets.
The harrying and hunting down of the opposition in packs was straight out of the Guardiola playbook and the Serie A giants didn’t know what had hit them.
