He Barcelona Athletic of Rafa Márquez, will travel to Madrid with an advantage, following prevailing in the first leg of the first round once morest Real Madrid Castilla 4-2, in a Clásico with more nerves and caution than a game, not without controversy and in which Luismi Cruz, scorer of the last two Barça goals, as magnificent as they were traced in a space of four minutes, became the star player.
Barça came back from Nico Paz’s initial 0-1 deficit following a quarter of an hour in the first half, responding to a header from Chadi Riad (a central defender to keep in mind) and a low shot from Roberto brushing the break, taking advantage of Luismi’s assistance , who stole an impossible ball.
Raúl González’s Merengue subsidiary tied once more, midway through the second half, through a penalty, much protested and transformed by Dotor, causing a downturn in the Barca team… From which he woke up in the blink of an eye Luismi, with two goals almost in a row, separated by four minutes (76 and 80) and traced, both with a sensational thread from the left diagonal that surprised Luis López, the Madrid goalkeeper and who might barely follow the ball with his eyes.
More respect than daring, more caution than risk, the first round of this Clásico of subsidiaries rewarded Barça with perhaps more advantage than it deserved, apparently on the field, a very balanced game, with greater football control from Madrid and greater intensity from the Barca team, who made up for the rival’s superiority in midfield with constant help and pressure when the ball was released.
On Sunday the 11th, at the Alfredo Di Stéfano, Madrid will have to come back from two goals to advance to the final. If the Merengue team won by two goals difference up to the 120th minute, they would be classified for having finished in the best position in the League.
At the moment the advantage, and illusion, is drawn in Barcelona. Rafa Márquez’s Barça Atlético struck first.
