It was a hard-to-watch game at the Camp Nou on Sunday.
When the final whistle blew, the look on Memphis Depay’s face said it all.
Frustration. Relief. Anticlimax.
In spite of scoring a beautiful game-winning goal, and running around all corners of the pitch to impact the game in any way he could, there was a feeling that the Catalan giants played small and conservative against an inferior foe.
Momentum was on their side after an impressive team goal within minutes of the opening whistle. Kudos to Sergi Roberto for standing up to the doubters.
