Cádiz is facing an FC Barcelona with many rotations in the Nuevo Mirandilla. The Cádiz team has shown signs of life in recent days, having achieved two victories in the last three games, which have brought Mauricio Pellegrino’s team closer to positions of permanence. This Saturday, Cádiz seeks to take another step in its objective when it receives Barça, another team that needs to take the three points, to remain in pursuit of the leader Real Madrid. The wear and tear that Xavi Hernández’s team may show plays in favor of the locals, after having been active in the middle of the week against PSG.

Goals
Referee Juan Luis Pulido Santana
Yellow cards Pau Cubarsí (min. 26)
Cubarsi does everything, even shoots
Cubarsí broke the lines in driving, until he found himself in a firing position. The Barça youth player tried a shot, but it didn’t find the target. The young defender is very confident.
Yellow for Cubarsi
Reprimand for Cubarsí for cutting off a promising advance by the rival.
Fermín wants to carry the weight of the Barça game
In the absence of players like Pedri, Gundogan or De Jong, Fermín López is the player who aims to make the difference from midfield. The Barça youth player is very active, trying to break lines and even daring to shoot from the front. Without success, so far.
Ter Stegen is attentive under the three sticks
Javi Hernández was encouraged with another powerful shot, now on goal, but Ter Stegen was very attentive to reject the shot. Afterwards, the ball fell to the feet of Juanmi, who could not hit the ball with the necessary power and the German goalkeeper took the ball with ease.
Little damage is done in the first minutes
It has been a first half of few opportunities. Barça maintains possession, but cannot open up a Cádiz team that is waiting very orderly. Mauricio Pellegrino’s men feel comfortable so far.
Javi Hernández responds for Cádiz
Now it was Javi Hernández who dared to shoot from a distance, but his ball, like Vitor Roque’s, went very far from the rival goal.
Roque’s first attempt
Vitor Roque tries his first shot of the night from the edge of the area, but the ball ended up in the stands.
Starts the match!
The ball is already rolling in Nuevo Mirandilla. A Barça with many rotations visits a Cádiz that is on the rise.
Many Xavi rotations
Xavi Hernández rotates the team a lot tonight, thinking about the return leg of the Champions League quarterfinals. Araujo, Pedri, Raphinha, Yamal, De Jong, Gundogan and Koundé are among the substitutes.
Barça lineup
Ter Stegen Fort, Christensen, Cubarsí, Alonso; Romeu, S. Roberto, Fermín; Ferran, J. Félix and Roque.
