La Liga Round 7, Real Madrid broke out in the Bernabeu, Galaxy battleship 1:1 tied by Osasuna, 9 consecutive victories at the start of the new season came to an abrupt end, and Barcelona also became the profitable side. The Ross and Blacks relied on the advantage of goal difference to surpass Real Madrid, and took the lead in La Liga for the first time in the new season. In addition, Barcelona is also leading La Liga in multiple data aspects.
After 7 rounds, Barcelona scored a total of 19 goals, averaging 2.7 goals per game, and the team was ahead of La Liga. Although Real Madrid also scored 18 goals, their conceded 7 goals. In contrast, Barcelona only conceded 1 goal in 7 rounds. This conceded still occurred in the second round of the away game against Real Sociedad. Since the third round, Telstegen 's goal has not been lost again in the league. Terstegen has maintained 534 consecutive minutes of not conceding the ball. On the scorer list, Lewandowski scored 9 goals after 7 rounds, leading Iglesias in the second place. On the assist list, Fati , Valde tied for first place in the assist list with Alaba, Li Gangren , Felix and others with 3 assists, which means that Barcelona is now ranked first in the standings, scorers, assists and per game conceded.
It can be clearly seen that after the summer window strengthening, Barcelona's overall strength has increased significantly. Whether it is Lewandowski's arrival has greatly strengthened Barcelona's offensive firepower, or Conde, Christensen and others have strengthened the defensive clean sheet strength, Barcelona can become the leader again in La Liga, which is inseparable from their wonderful performance.
Of course, Barcelona cannot be too proud. Although they are the first in many data, there are also hidden dangers. After all, since the start of the game, they have only encountered Champions League , a strong team in Champions League . In the next October, Barcelona will still need to face many strong teams, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, and Bayern. This devilish schedule is one of the criteria for testing Barcelona's strength. At the same time, Barcelona also has a big problem, that is, "overly dependent on Lewandowski", because except Lewandowski, Barcelona has no second scorer to stand up at critical moments. Barcelona spent 50 million euros in the summer window to introduce the 34-year-old Lewandowski in order to ensure goals on the front line. Lewandowski also lived up to expectations. He scored 12 goals and 2 assists in 9 games. After the start of the new season, the number of goals scored was only second to Haaland . However, except for Lewand, the other five Barcelona strikers scored (7 goals) not as many as Lewandowski.
In the Champions League match against Bayern, Lewandowski was restricted by his old teammates throughout the game. Although he got 7 shots, he only had 2 shots on the right side. The combined number of shots by other Barcelona players was only 7 times. In this round, the strength of the match against Mallorca was not strong. Lewandowski relied on his personal ability, so Barcelona was able to retreat in the whole game. It can be seen that once Lewandowski was silent, Barcelona's front-court firepower would decline significantly. What's even more embarrassing is that except Lewandowski, other Barcelona strikers do not have the ability to finish. Dembele and Rafinia are both impactful and fast, and are good at creating scoring for teammates. Since his serious injury, Fati has long lost his previous stability and spirituality since returning to the stadium. Although Depe is the core of the national team, he is not popular in Barcelona. As for Ferran Torres , I believe Barcelona fans can see how much he finishes last season.
Due to the World Cup, the schedule of the 22-23 season has become more intensive. Barcelona wants 34-year-old Lewandowski to maintain Barcelona's offensive firepower alone, which is obviously unrealistic. After all, Lewandowski is so self-disciplined that there will inevitably be several downturns in a season. In the Champions League, when Lewandowski is heavily guarded by a strong team, it is unlikely that Barcelona will go further.
