Rayo Vallecano vs Barcelona match review, 2:30 a.m. September 1: The fierce land of De Vallecas

VHO - Commentary on the match Rayo Vallecano vs Barcelona, ​​round 3 of La Liga, Lamine Yamal and his teammates may have to face another difficult away trip.

Rayo Vallecano vs Barcelona performance

Barcelona's winning streak was almost stopped in round 2. Despite only having to play away at rookie Levante, Blaugrana had a disastrous start when the underdogs took a 2-goal lead after the first 45 minutes.

It was only thanks to a strong pressure after the break that the team under the direction of coach Hansi Flick created a successful comeback, including a goal from an own goal by center-back Elgezabal in injury time, setting the score at 3-2.

Thanks to the thrilling victory, Barcelona extended their winning streak to 7, and continued to be at the top of La Liga with Villarreal, Real Madrid, Athletic Bilbao and Getafe, 5 teams with 6 absolute points after the first 2 rounds.

With their current overwhelming strength, Barcelona will of course aim for another victory in their visit to De Vallecas. In the last 3 times they faced Rayo Vallecano, Blaugrana have had a perfect record.

However, the lesson from a week ago is still fresh, so coach Hansi Flick and his team will definitely need to focus more on the game. It is also important to know that the recent trips to Villa de Vallecas by the Catalan giants always have potential risks.

Specifically, Barca only won 1, drew 1 and lost 2 in the last 4 away matches against Rayo Vallecano.

Last season, it was also thanks to the shining moments in the second half of Pedri and Raphinha that the Catalan giants came back to win 2-1 at De Vallecas.

Barca may have to go through another difficult away trip

Staying focused and trying to accumulate maximum points before the El Clasico match in round 10 with arch-rivals Real Madrid will be Barcelona's goal. But before thinking about further prospects, Lamine Yamal and his teammates still need to solve each match well.

Compared to the powerful guests, Rayo Vallecano did not perform as well after the starting line. However, the record of 3 wins and only 1 loss since the beginning of the season of coach Inigo Perez and his team is still worthy of praise.

Rayo Vallecano are also holding a 5-match unbeaten streak at home. However, to create a surprise against an opponent with a star-studded squad on the other side of the battle line is certainly never an easy story.

In addition to pure professional effort, the home team probably needs more luck if they want to escape the failure scenario.
