He Barcelona Soccer Club He has had a season to forget in LaLiga. After winning the championship last year, the team led by Xavi Hernández has not been able to retain the crown and almost at no time has it posed a danger to the Real Madridwho has sung the alirón thanks to Girona’s victory over the Blaugranas.

With four games left, it is not only that Barcelona have mathematically lost the league, but that His participation in the next Spanish Super Cup is also in danger.. With the defeat in the Catalan derby, the Gironí team has surpassed Barça in the standings and It could be the first time since 1942 that it is not the first Catalan team in the domestic competition.

In the last five seasons the culé team has only managed to win one league. A five-year period that Real Madrid has led with three titles and Atlético de Madrid added the remaining one. This makes the Barcelona fan go back in time to remember a premonition of Lionel Messi which, over time, has become a reality.

Leo Messi

This took place on August 4, 2019 during the presentation of the squad for the season. In the culé bosom The goal was the Champions League after the painful elimination in the semifinals against Liverpool the previous year. The league competition seemed a secondary objective after achieving two in a row thanks to Ernesto Valverde.

But not for Leo Messi. The Argentine, all-time top scorer in the First Division, pointed out the importance of the tournament’s regularity and what Barça had achieved in the past. “We have to give value to the league, the eighth in 11 years. That for any club is something great. In time you will see how difficult that is.“.

Three of the last five seasons without titles

That same season ended Barcelona’s dominance in the First Division and with one of the most embarrassing defeats in the club’s history, the 8-2 defeat by Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarterfinals. Besides, It was the first year without titles since the 2013-2014 academic year with ‘Tata’ Martino, a figure that has increased to three campaigns without metal (2021-2022 and the current one) in the last five years.

A wake-up call from Barça’s ’10’ that the culés regret to this day. The effort in the Champions League blinded the Blaugrana fan who did not sufficiently value the milestone that comes with becoming champion in LaLiga. Five years after those statements, Leo Messi’s warning has come true to the disappointment of the Barça fan who would like to return to the old days.
