“You must have watched a different game, Renato”. That’s what I heard online and from friends in real life after being positive about Barcelona’s win against Real Sociedad on Saturday. My point of view is that Barcelona were solid, competed really hard for 90 minutes and created enough chances to win by more than just a VAR-awarded penalty in the 80th minute. I didn’t think Barcelona were perfect, but I continue to see progress and still believe Quique Setién has his team on the right path.
Apparently I’m wrong, and I accept that. I don’t know everything about football, but I watch every Barcelona game with the audio on mute so my thoughts on the game aren’t influenced by commentators and the atmosphere in the stadium.
