“I warned Hansi Flcik about that particular player, he refused to bench him and He Almost lost the game Vs Sevilla … Hansi Flcik is making the same mistake now, I’m warning him also”: Former Barcelona Player Lionel Messi names ONE player who doesn’t deserve to start for Barcelona, warned Flick about the unforgivable mistake

Sevilla produced an impressive performance to crush Barcelona 4-1 at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan on October 5, in a La Liga encounter that underlined their sharp attacking play and disciplined defending.

The home side set the tone early, taking the lead in the 13th minute when former Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez calmly converted a penalty to open the scoring. Their dominance continued as Isaac Romero doubled the advantage in the 36th minute, leaving Barcelona struggling to find their rhythm.

Just before halftime, Marcus Rashford provided a glimmer of hope for Hansi Flick’s men, volleying in a goal in the seventh minute of stoppage time to make it 2-1 and raise expectations for a second-half comeback. Barcelona pressed hard after the break, trying to break down Sevilla’s well-organized defense, but the hosts stood their ground with impressive composure.

A turning point came in the 76th minute when Robert Lewandowski had the chance to equalize from the penalty spot, but the Polish striker failed to convert, squandering a crucial opportunity to shift the game’s momentum. Sevilla capitalized on the miss, remaining solid and confident as the minutes ticked away.

In the closing moments, Sevilla sealed the win in style. Jose Angel Carmona struck in the 89th minute to make it 3-1, and Akor Adams added another in the sixth minute of stoppage time to complete the emphatic 4-1 victory.

The result propels Sevilla into the top half of the La Liga table, showcasing their growing consistency and form. Meanwhile, Barcelona’s title hopes take a serious blow, as rivals Real Madrid move ahead in the standings. Flick and his players will need to regroup quickly, addressing their defensive errors and lack of composure in front of goal before their next set of fixtures.
