Mason Greenwood extended his impressive run of form by adding another goal to his growing pre-season tally as Marseille secured a 1-1 draw with Spanish outfit Sevilla at the Stade Vélodrome. The 23-year-old forward found the net with a clever, stooping header after meeting a perfectly delivered cross from the left flank by Ulisses Garcia.
Lamine Yamal has reportedly felt discomfort in his pubic area once again after the Champions League game against Paris Saint-Germain. The 18-year-old was sidelined for three weeks due to the same injury and now his participation against Sevilla and his presence in the Spanish national team is doubtful.
Barcelona suffered their first league defeat of the season in a thumping 4-1 loss to Sevilla, as Robert Lewandowski’s missed penalty denied them a lifeline in the second half. Reflecting on the setback, defender Pau Cubarsi admitted that the team’s wastefulness in front of goal proved costly and urged his teammates to “push for more” to prevent such lapses in future games.
Former Barcelona player Gerard Lopez has heavily criticised current manager Hansi Flick for his "suicidal" high-line tactics. Lopez believes that after more than a season at the helm, opposition clubs have figured out the Catalans' defensive strategy and it is time for the German to make a change.
Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde has acknowledged that his team committed multiple errors in their recent La Liga outing against Sevilla. The Catalans were not clinical in front of goal and their defensive strategy was exploited by the opposition, which led to a thumping defeat.
