- The game started particularly badly for Barca newcomer Firpo: Alba's deputy committed a grave mistake which resulted in an early goal.
- Valverde, for his part, chose his midfield wrongly: Rakitic and Roberto were below their best.
- Barca attack was literally anonymous in the first half: only the introduction of Messi and Fati in the second half breathed some life.
- In total, the Catalans only attempted eight shots but only one reached the target.
- The coach's third change was rather puzzling: instead of Busquets or Arthur, he brought on Vidal who immediately conceded the penalty.
- In total, Barca looked poor in all areas with De Jong and Messi only positive impressions.
