Fideo needed five minutes to beat Gulácsi’s goal
Incidents
Red Bull Arena. Behind closed doors.
Tuchel was forced to turn to Spaniard Sarabia to complete the offensive trident with Kean and Di María, who came to the duel between cotton wool and made a point of trying to help his team. It was a risky decision, albeit a wise one given the events. Five minutes it took for Fideo to beat Gulácsi’s goal. Upamecano, who has sounded for all the ‘greats’ this summer but has had a disastrous season, gave a ball to Kean near the area and he enabled ‘Dima’ with a delicious touch that left the Argentine hand in hand with the Leipzig goalkeeper .
One of lime and another of sand, because after a quarter of an hour Di María himself missed the penalty that could definitely tip the balance on the Parisian side. Upamecano had rolled it again with “involuntary” hands that before the VAR might not have been indicated, but now they do not admit forgiveness. Modern football things, such as the fact that in the Leipzig line-up there was only one German player for four fans, while in PSG there were only two French footballers. In between, Keylor had avoided the draw for Nagelsmann’s team with two point-blank saves from shots from Haidara and Angeliño.
Thomas Tuchel no longer "it sounds" in renewing his contract with PSG
HARAKIRI ‘ROUGE ET BLEU’
The duel was more alive than ever. However, it got stinking as we got closer to break. Dani Olmo was lost in the position of ‘false nine’ and without a fixed reference above because of the losses, Leipzig was a kitten instead of the red bull to which we are accustomed. Even so, he managed in an isolated action to equalize the encounter with a precise low shot from Nkunku from the balcony of the area. Before, the referee had annulled two goals to Kean and Di María poor offside.
PSG culminated its particular harakiri in the opening straight of the second half, when Kimpembe spread his arms excessively inside the area and invited Danny Makkelie to indicate the maximum penalty, used by Forsberg to turn the scoreboard. Almost accidentally, Leipzig had managed to take the lead against the ‘rouge et bleu’, who at that time were already a sea of doubts.

The game of cat and mouse ended fatally for PSG, with Gueye in the dugout after seeing his second yellow card and Tuchel unhinged on the band. Bad times for the Krumbach coach, who this time lost the game against his disciple.
Barça and Atlético de Madrid could have closed an unprecedented operation last summer, according to Cadena SER: a 3×1 football match in which the rojiblancos parted ways with Mario Hermoso, Lemar and Morata in exchange for returning, a year after their arrival, Griezmann to Atlético de Madrid.

Antoine Griezmann
The operation was not carried out due to Josep Maria Bartomeu’s refusal to part with the French striker, whom he considered non-transferable. However, seeing how the season is going, the question is on the table: Would you accept the exchange that Atlético proposed for Griezmann? Would Barça have won or did Bartomeu do well by rejecting the offer?

It was not bad at all for FC Barcelona with Louis van Gaal on the Barça bench. The historic president Josep Lluís Núñez signed him, among other things, to implement the Ajax philosophy at Barça. And of course, to do so, he had to surround himself with Dutch players, most of them from Ajax, with whom he had won the European Cup in the 94-95 season with one of the youngest teams in the history of the competition.

Louis van Gaal tried to clone Ajax at Barcelona
Sporting success
The 1997/98 season was his first as Barça coach and Van Gaal won three titles: the League, the King’s Cup and the European Super Cup. After 39 years, the Barça entity returned to make a double (League and Cup).
He did so with a squad that included three Dutch footballers, right-back Michael Reiziger, left-back Winston Bogarde and goalkeeper Ruud Hesp. The latter was a signing that drew powerfully attention because it came from a modest clun in Holland such as Roda. Both Reiziger and Bogarde, trained at Ajax, flew to Camp Nou from Milan. Bogarde, by the way, was booked in January 1998.
The second season of the Amsterdam coach in Barcelona was also a sporting success, as he returned to conquer the League. In such a way that in his first two years as Barça coach, Van Gaal managed to lead the team to the top of the rankings, a milestone that until then had only been achieved by the historic coaches Enrique Fernández and Helenio Herrera.
Five more
In that his second season at the Camp Nou was when Van Gaal made the most of his compatriots. Not without overcoming a bitter controversy, he managed to get Ajax to free brothers Frank and Ronald de Boer, who requested the mediation of the Dutch Football Federation for their club to accept the offer of FC Barcelona. The brothers, like Bogarde the year before, joined the Barça project in the middle of the season.
Van Gaal returned to “fishing” at Milan, achieving a signing that at the time seemed spectacular, that of center forward Patrick Kluivert, the man who, at 19, scored the goal that had given Ajax its last European Cup.
Along with these three signings, Barça added the two best footballers that PSV Eindhoven had then: Phillip Cocu and ‘Bolo’ Zenden. FC Barcelona was then more of a Dutch team than anything else since Van Gaal came to line up up to seven players of that nationality.
Van Gaal returned to FC Barcelona with Joan Gaspart as president. In that season, the 2002-2003 could not finish his work since he was dismissed due to the bad results of the team. During that period he had another Dutchman on his payroll, Marc Overmars.
Dutchman Tom Dumoulin (Jumbo Visma) has been outmatched "because of fatigue" and has decided to abandon the Vuelta a España before the start of the eighth stage, which today takes place between Logroño and Alto de Moncalvillo, with a route of 164 kilometers.
