Returned like pancakes by Atletico Bilbao in the Supercopa final with two goals from the Basques in added time, last January, the Barcelona were entitled in turn to their beautiful comeback.
Led 2-0 by Granada on Wednesday night with only a handful of seconds left to play, Ronald Koeman's men scored two goals at the very end of the match (a csc in the 88th and a goal from Jordi Alba on a nice pass from Griezmann back in the 92nd) and gave themselves the right to go to extended.
They only had to press where it hurt, the opponent never having recovered from this double blow to the head in added time.
Antoine Griemzann with a pretty head, Frenkie De Jong and again Jordi Alba finally secured a big victory for the Blaugranas.
In the heavy context surrounding the Catalan club, this hard-won success should give Barça a boost two weeks from the reception of PSG in the Champions League.
