- Barcelona dominate La Liga with seven wins and an unbeaten run
- Despite several chances, Getafe were unable to break down Barcelona’s defence
In a La Liga match played on September 25, 2024, Barcelona beat Getafe by a narrow margin of 1-0 to continue their perfect record this season. After seven games played, the team of the Catalan giants remains unbeaten and with a full number of points at the top of the table.
Barcelona’s performance was once again very dominant, although the result was nowhere near the more impressive victories that its fans are used to.
The match was decided by a single hit by the Polish striker
The only goal of the match was scored by Robert Lewandowski, who thus achieved his seventh goal of the season. The Polish forward made his mark after a beautiful event and confirmed his role as the main gunner of the team. Under coach Hansi Flick, Lewandowski has been on fire again, giving Barcelona a solid attacking edge in every game.
Getafe, currently on the bottom rungs of the table, entered with the aim of defending against a favored opponent. Although their defense gave a solid performance, in attack the team did not manage to threaten the opponent’s goal enough. Several opportunities did arise, but Barcelona’s defense, led by Inaki Pena, dealt with every threat.
During the match, Barcelona once again showed why they are considered one of the most dominant teams in world football. With nearly 70% possession, she dictated the pace of the match and controlled the game. Even so, their offense was not as productive as one might expect, and the game remained open until the end.
Getafe concentrated on defensive work and although they eventually capitulated, their performance was admirable. The opponent tried to use every opportunity to counterattack, but could not create enough dangerous opportunities.
Flick’s leadership brings stability
Under new coach Hans Flick, Barcelona seem to be on the right track for success. He became only the third coach in the club’s history to win his first seven games in La Liga. His arrival meant a fresh impulse for the team, which is reflected not only in the number of goals scored, but also in a solid defense.
La Liga table after round 7
Barcelona are currently in first place in La Liga with a full 21 points, followed by Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao. Getafe, on the other hand, remains at the bottom of the table, where they are still trying to get their first win.
Barcelona will be looking to continue their winning run in the next few games, while Getafe need to start picking up points if they want to stay in the Spanish top flight. The match thus brought the expected result, but also showed that even teams from the lower levels of the table can be dangerous.
