The Spaniards unequivocally assessed Lewandowski. They draw attention to an important detail

FC Barcelona defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 to advance to the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey. Ousmane Dembele scored the three-point goal for Xavi Hernandez’s side in the 52nd minute. Robert Lewandowski played the whole match in the colors of the hosts, but the Pole will not consider this match successful.

Levi didn’t have his day. He had to reckon with provocations due to the person of the referee

– He didn’t have his day. He was very hungry for goals, but had two good chances in the first half and was unable to convert them into a goal – wrote the Catalan “Sport”, which on a ten-point scale gave Lew a “six”. They pointed out that the rivals were “looking for” Gil Manzano.

In the opinion of the Pole, “Mundo Deportivo” also focused on the figure of the referee of this meeting. Gil Manzano is the referee who showed the striker a red card in November’s meeting with Osasuna. Lewandowski is still paying for her punishment. – With Gil Manzano around, he was more attentive than usual – they wrote. Especially since the Basques seemed to know about this fact and died every time they came in contact with a Pole. According to the newspaper, Lewandowski deserved 3 on a school scale.

– Good moments, but it was not a day to shine – we read about the 34-year-old in the Catalan “L’Esportiu”. They also pay attention to the provocations of rivals in connection with Gil Manzano. Especially against Brais Mendez who suggested he was elbowed. The Madrid “Marca” was the most severe for Lewy. Only gave it one star.

There was one star

The best ratings as a definite star of the show were collected by Ousmane Dembele, about whom Xavi himself said after the meeting that “for him he is still one of the best wingers in the world”. The Frenchman was the only one to receive a three-star rating from “Marka”.

– You can already say it loud and clear. This is Ousmane Dembele’s season. Very inspired, great in duels and constantly delivering balls to his partners – wrote “Sport”, giving him as many as “nine”. Like “Mundo Deportivo”, and the phrase “inspired” in his opinion was also used by “L’Esportiu”. – Dembélé’s playing was still a recital – echoes “AS”.

FC Barcelona is already in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey and is waiting for an opponent. , but perhaps it will be Osasuna, who also made it to the top four on Wednesday. The Pamplona team beat Sevilla 2-1 after extra time. Finishing the 1/4 phase of the domestic cup on Thursday. Valencia will play Athletic Bilbao and Real will face Atletico in the derby.
