Few things thrill more than youth talent. Is pure. There has been no way to corrupt it yet. And the attitude, the gestures, the tears, are nothing more than reactions of the first time. Ansu Fati, the youngest scorer in the history of Barcelona in the League (16 years and 104 days), scored the goal that initiated the attempt to come back from Barcelona in El Sadar. He saw Carles Pérez center and propelled his body in search of the dream header. He was suspended as if they were grabbing the swirls of Van Gogh's 'Starry Night'. He didn't even know how to celebrate that. He simply shook his head and told his classmates that he couldn't believe it. In that three-track circus on which football has been developing lately, such innocence impacts. [Narration and statistics: 2-2]

However, Ansu Fati does not really have such a responsibility in Barcelona. The same club delivered to the megalomania of its president. Depressing the Barca team in the first half, failed to take advantage of its improvement in the second. Once he got ahead, thanks to Arthur's first goal since you saw the Barcelona shirt, those of Valverde went back again. Piqué's irresponsibility in taking his arm for a walk in the area settled the afternoon with a heartless draw. Barça has added four points out of nine possible in the first three days.

Facing delirium, not even football. Zero shots of Barcelona in the first part. A horrible game. Rakitic, serious collateral damage of the market sainete, dislodged on the bench. Frankie de Jong, the structural signing of the club, misplaced throughout the first act and without really knowing what to do in a drawing in which the interiors seem to have the slogan away from the ball. And Griezmann, without game or allies that feed him, consumed by the pressure of the centrals in a center forward position that is not his.

There will be time for contrition. To know if the madness lived, written, radiated and consumed as a result of the operation Neymar will be the tonic to follow from now on. That journalism has lost the war against the show and the theater. It corresponds, however, to the directive of Barcelona to explain why it got into such a mess, no matter how much the mayors of the vetuary insisted. Even more marketing with several players of their own staff, treated as pieces of cattle, and who will have no choice but to live in distrust of their superiors. A guirigay who has taken Valverde and the team out of his mind.

It seemed impossible that after the convincing victory against Betis on the last day, Barcelona could return to the streets. While it is true that Osasuna, newly promoted, could not be a simple rival in the lair of El Sadar - he has not lost at home since September 2018 -, he was surprised by the scarce Barça plan against an expected script. The fierce and neighborhood bearing of Chimi Ávila, Rosario's forward of steel quadrips and ankle socks, was nothing more than the metaphor of perpetual intimidation. The Barça players choked on the exit of the ball. The midfielders did not assume responsibilities. And for long stretches the only solution was to get the ball to Rafinha at the end so that he could center the area. Even knowing that Griezmann does not meet the conditions of small area auctioneer.

The suffocation caused Osasuna to take advantage of his first shot on goal to take the first goal. And the action did nothing but show the tactical mess. Brandon focused from the right bank. And the players who had to cover the play preferred to squat around Chimy Avila. Regardless of Roberto Torres, who was just waiting to execute Ter Stegen with a violent volley. Semedo, disastrous until Valverde got him off on the break, he didn't even look back.

Who was going to say it. Barcelona, ​​beyond the fact that Messi, Luis Suárez and Dembélé are still in the infirmary, had to find solutions in Ansu Fati. Valverde implored him to find solutions from the imbalance. The entry of Arthur, in addition to promoting a greater prominence of De Jong, finally improved the collective game. Even the Brazilian took the license to take advantage of the insistence of Busquets in the theft.

But with Valverde out of the way before each entry suffered by Ansu Fati, and with that hand of Piqué that led to the penalty kick Roberto Torres, Barcelona sensed that the game would have no choice. That a 16-year-old boy cannot get him out of the institutional chaos and sports dismay.
