Spanish Soccer - Barcelona Gets Its 10th Consecutive Victory by Beating Sporting Gijon
The current leader and 18-times champions of La Liga, FC Barcelona, got their 10th consecutive victory in the Spanish first division of football by beating Sporting Gijon 3-1 this past Sunday. This triumph puts Barça 12 points ahead of second place Real Madrid and 21 points ahead of third place Sevilla. Barcelona is simply playing great football and their players are more motivated than ever, their Coach Pep Guardiola has done a great job and has performed impressive game plans during the 22 matches played in the season, adding 59 points. In this amazing 2008-2009 campaign Barcelona has won 19 games, lost just one and tied only 2 games.
During this past game, Eto’o scored the two first goals for Barcelona while Dani Alves scored the last one. The first goal of Eto’o came at minute 23 by a great play of Iniesta who carried the ball to half court and made a pass to Thierry Henry who crossed to Eto’o. The second goal came at minute 40 when Lionel Messi cross the ball to Eto’o who finished the play. The third goal was also a play from Iniesta, who set up a goal to Dani Alves at minute 66. However, just two minutes later the midfielder of Sporting Kike Mateo pulled the final goal of the game and only one for his squad, to finish with the score 3-1.
With these two goals, Samuel Eto’o remains as the top scorer of the league with 21 goals, four goals ahead of David Villa and 5 goals ahead of his partner Lionel Messi. Eto’o is a clear contender for the Pichichi trophy this year, although this does not perturb the Cameroon player, who is more focused on the team objectives, which are obtaining the La Liga title, the Champions League and the Copa del Rey. Eto’o assures his team Barcelona can conquer all these achievements as long as they don’t get too comfortable about it; they need to keep working and stay focus on each game.
“One less round to play, and three more points added. Hopefully, we can continue our good streak because we cannot lower our guard. If we lose our focus, any team will be able to beat us. We must take it one game at a time, although it makes it much easier to continually move forward when you set yourself a dream. You do not feel the exhaustion,” stated the top scorer Eto’o.
On the other hand, coach Pep Guardiola expressed he was astonished with his team performance and the capacity of his players to turn their defence to attack and their control over the ball to create goals. He hopes they continue improving and kept their eyes in their objectives without forgetting been humble in their game.
The next game of Barça will be against Real Betis on Sunday, February 15th at Andalucia. Real Betis is currently in 14th place of the standings with 25 points and they are coming from and important victory against Sevilla 2-1. Even with their position on the table, they will be a great contender for Barcelona and will also be an interesting game to watch.
