This Sunday, January 7, FC Barcelona faced UD Barbastro, from the fourth division in Spain, for the round of 32 in the Copa del Rey. Those led by Xavi Hernández suffered more than necessary against a rival who on paper was much inferior to the Catalans, but who fought on the field.

The first goal of the match at the Barbastro Municipal Stadium would be scored by the 20-year-old Barça youth player, Fermín López, who would take advantage of a great pass from Raphinha on the edge of the six-yard box.

After the first score 20 minutes into the first half, a feast of goals for Barcelona was expected, but Barbastro would organize itself correctly and they would reach halftime 0-1. It would not be until the start of the second half that the Blaugranas' second goal would arrive, the work of the Brazilian who already had an assist to his name in the match, Raphinha.

However, when they were 0-2 down, Barbastro's team would begin to put much more pressure on the Blaugranas, to the point that they would manage to shorten the lead with a surprising goal. The person in charge of scoring Barbastro's first goal was Adriá de Mesa, famous for having been part of the Ultimate Mostoles team, of the Spanish streamer, Dj Mario, in Gerard Piqué's Kings League.

The end of the match

Unfortunately for the red and whites, a penalty for each team would leave the match at 2-3, where Barça has gone 20 consecutive games without winning by more than one goal for the first time in its history.
