FC Barcelona is playing to extend the lead over Real Madrid. For now, everything is going according to the favorites. And it’s largely thanks to Robert Lewandowski.
Lewandowski with an assist and a missed opportunity
Robert Lewandowski quickly showed class in the La Liga meeting with Villarreal. The Polish striker in the 18th minute of the match was extremely conscious and contributed to opening the score. First, Gavi, together with Kounde, regained the ball in the opponent’s half. Then a few quick passes were enough and Lewandowski after a while carried out a double action with Pedri. He played to him from the first ball from the air, and he calmly finished the action with a shot in the bottom corner. It was an assist of exceptional beauty.
Earlier, Lewandowski himself faced a chance to score a goal. Within three minutes of the meeting with Villarreal, Pedri found him with a brilliant pass. The talented midfielder almost from the center line played into the free field, and the Pole had a lot of space to accelerate and hit the goal. Lewandowski won the running duel with Raul Albiol, but unfortunately the shot left much to be desired.
