Things are not going well for Barça B right now. After a six-game unbeaten streak and some great football, the youngsters have gone back to the struggle we saw early in the season with very little efficiency up front and a leaky defense.
And Sergi Barjuan’s side was dealt a very heavy blow last weekend when they visited Third Division leaders Villarreal B. Unlike their previous two losses where they had some good moments and couldn’t finish their chances, Barça didn’t have a chance in this one.
Villarreal opened the scoring just three minutes in, and after Ilias Akhomach was sent off in the 25th minute there was just no chance for Barça, who were thoroughly dominated by the young Yellow Submarine en route to a 3-0 loss.
