Barcelona's tough season continues.

The Catalans finished today (Sunday) in a frustrating and dramatic 1: 1 with Cadiz, and are 8 points away from Atletico Madrid at the top.

Alex Fernandez equalized with a penalty in the 89th minute, canceling out an advantage for Leo Messi who scored himself from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute.

For Messi, it was another game that illustrates the problematic situation he is in: on the one hand, Flea continues to break records - he made his 506th appearance in the Spanish league and became the pinnacle of Barcelona's appearances when he overtook Xavi;

Scored the first goal of his career against Cadiz, who became the 38th rival to absorb him in the Spanish top league;

Still, that was not enough either.



Barcelona kicked no less than 21 times to the goal, dominated unchallenged, but again showed naivety when she missed a lot and was left with only one point from the two meetings with the opponent from the bottom.

Despite losing the silly points and moving away from Atletico and Real Madrid, Gerard Pique is still convinced that the championship battle depends on Barcelona.

"It was an opportunity we had to take advantage of, because Atletico Madrid knew we could narrow the gap from it. But what happened happened, and now we have to stay with our heads up. The result is painful, Cadiz has complicated us, but I still believe the league depends more on us than our rivals. "In every game you do not win, the chances go down. The gap between us and Atletico is big, but it is not indelible."



Jordi Alba added: "We screwed up, and it's our full fault. What happened in the last minutes is shame, but we must continue, we must not give up. We are Barcelona, ​​and Barcelona do not give up."



Commentators, too, have already slammed Barcelona, ​​and continued to kill her.

Former club player Luis Suarez of Marimontes told Catalan television at the end: "Barcelona have no pace, no aggression, everyone plays too carefully. Barcelona has lost its soul, it is completely messed up."



Marimontes added that "Messi is not able to do everything alone. He gets help from Pedry from time to time, but the team is extremely weak, with no character, nothing."
