Contested for his performances at the forefront of FC Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski found the net on Saturday against Alavès (1-3), while his last goal in La Liga dates back to December 10!
Although he scored in the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup with Barça, Robert Lewandowski had not yet scored this year in La Liga and his last goal even dates back to December 10 against Girona. After six matches without scoring in the league, the Polish veteran started the Blaugranas in the victory at Alavés (1-3), Saturday evening on behalf of the 23rd day.
“Lewy” opened the scoring with a nice ball taken in front of the opposing goalkeeper (22nd). A decisive passer in the first period, Ilkay Gündogan then doubled the lead for FCB after returning from the locker room (49th), just before the goal of hopeful Samu Omorodion for the Vitoria team (51st).
Vitor Roque scorer but excluded!
Xavi, however, lost two players: Gündogan came out injured and Vitor Roque, who replaced the German midfielder, scored his team’s third goal straight away (63rd), but before being sent off (72nd)! The young Brazilian star who arrived this winter received a second very severe warning when he stepped on an opposing player…
With this second success in four days, Barcelona, third in the standings, returns to seven and five points behind Real Madrid and Girona, the Merengues being opposed to Atlético on Sunday (before receiving Girona!).
