Frank Rijkaard has chosen to the Recreation by Gudjohnsen in midfield and the team has understood the idea of his coach as a change to a more direct style and vertical. The result of this approach, neither Iniesta or Xavi have been the engines of the game blaugrana and thus have had difficulty finding steady pace of the match.

Across its rivals chose to shut his players grouping in the center and the slogan that Messi should mark out at least two players. Thus, the Argentine has hardly had chances to goal in the vicinity sticky because the markings of the visitors prevented a single entry with ease. Faced with the difficulties, the flea has tried to step forward and assume the role of absent Ronaldinho with a more active involvement after the first hour of play until it has been translated into pieces to serve.

However, the situation has come to turn Messi in the float Barça before the sinking, without Xavi Iniesta or use the good ball movement from a defense well capitaneada by Gaby Milito. Without ideas, only with the lightning of Messi, fortune for the local team has been that Recreativo has been confined to defend and even has come to try the gloves Victor Valdes in part because neither Sinama Pongolle or their midfielders surprised to Yaya Toure and zagueros barcelonistas.

Milito, the rescue
In the absence of 30 minutes Frank Rijkaard has decided to burn all its ships with the entry of Bojan by Gudjohnsen? Absolutely inappropriate in all its shares. But it has had to be Gaby Milito who opened the scoring for initialling his excellent match. In a Xavi corner from the right? Earlier had made Messi with little danger the Argentine cabeceaba in a clean and accurate to bring tranquility to their peers.

With the goal, the agenda of both teams needed to be changed radically. The Recreation and advanced lines at its first opportunity Bojan down after a good maneuver to leave behind his marker. Since then, both the young striker as his team has been smooth with a lot more ease and relaxation to show the public some details about quality? Especially in contragolpes-. However, neither Henry nor Messi have managed to overcome Sorrentino in the last minute to close the goleada.

Messi finally got the goal that both had sought? Of penalty- after a very individualistic game and the players have gone to local clothing with the feeling of accomplishment after a meeting with a very fought Recreativo than ever was made in the area of Victor Valdes with possibilities to score a goal. A great result for a package that did not work in Zambrotta in the band, Henry did not exceed its rivals, Messi just found holes and fell Puyol injured. On the opposing side, Recreativo could not start the tie I was looking for and it stays in job decline with 12 points.
