Sunday night’s match at the Reale Arena made for uncomfortable viewing if you were a Barcelona fan.
The performance, or lack of one, brought back memories of seasons past, where Barca routinely saved their poorest display of the season for their visit to San Sebastián.
In recent times, the Catalans had broken the hoodoo of playing there, but Sunday was just terrible.
The visitors weren’t helped by a stunningly bad VAR call it has to be said, and even when viewing the footage that the VAR official will have seen, it’s still a stretch to definitively suggest that the ‘toe’ that was offside was actually Robert Lewandowski’s rather than Nayef Aguerd’s.
