Barcelona taste their first defeat at Camp Nou this season




A shell shocked Barca at Camp Nu today. With absence like Phillipe Coutinho and Rafaina in their midfield FC Barcelona taste a shocking defeat in the hand of 15th place Real Betis.

Bara had a bad day at office and specially their goal keeper Ter Stegen with half a dozen of their first XI were out anybody expect more responsibility in their numero uno Keeper. Barca not clinical today and Messi certainly not at his best. Real Betis always a tough nut for Barca in La Liga, but no one expect them to pull this victory at Camp Nou. Barca was heavily outclassed in all the position like upfront, midfield and defence. I think Barca lost the plot in their formation they are not used to 4-3-3 formation for a long time and it shows that the gap between their midfield and defence line are wide enough to penetrate and Betis did exactly that with their clinical final pass and good finish. Although Messi scored two goals but it is a sad for him and he likely to forget. 

With Coutinho out for two weeks with injury and Rakitic received a marching order for his second yellow card today, they will face a uphill task against Atheletico Madrid in their next fixture at Madrid. With this doggy midfield and no understanding between their two central defender Pique and Lenglet it is almost certain that they will concede goals. Real Betis will get a good boost to their La Liga campaign with this win and move to 12th spot in La Liga.
