Barcelona may have finally found their groove under Hansi Flick.
The German’s early career in Spain was marked by spectacular wins against big teams before flopping against smaller outfits, but a three-game winning streak in LaLiga may have changed matters.
With Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid dropping points thanks to their 1-1 derby draw, Barca have thrown themselves back in the title race with a 4-1 win over Sevilla closing the gap to two points.
It wasn’t just the scoreline that Barca produced that impressed so much, but the style they showed even with 10 men.
Explaining what he saw was Cadena SER’s Marcos López, who said: “This is the second consecutive stadium in which people have left early because they don’t want to see Barça dominate their teams.
“I think that Atlético and Real, who had ruled out this Barça, have now turned around and have them within a point or two and we’ll see the response, especially from Real Madrid.
“The message that Barcelona is sending today is one of true power. The coach has been with these players for eight months and it feels like he’s been there for two or three years.”
