The Spanish coach made absurd substitutions during the second half as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 played against Deportivo and after the game he gave an interview which explained each and every replacement he made.
During the game against Deportivo La Coruna, Barcelona saw Javier Mascherano getting a red card and then Tito Vilanova made a few changes which the fans think were not correct.
Therefore, during the post-match press conference, Vilanova explained why he made those certain changes and how they affected the team’s performance on the pitch.
The substitutions saw http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pedro-c29582 Rodriguez.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Mascherano-c18071 was the player who saw the second yellow card and was given his marching orders.
With La Blaugrana being down to ten men, it was definitely difficult for them to stay into such a competitive fixture. Therefore, Tito Vilanova tried to make the perfect substitutions in order to help his team win the game.
Cesc Fabregas was the player, who was creating most of the goal-scoring opportunities, but even he was substituted and many criticized that situation.
However, Vilanova explained why Cesc Fabregas was called back to the bench.
While speaking about the substitutions he made, Tito Vilanova said:
“We were down to 10 and away at Depor. This is why we got Pedro to play on the wing and Adriano as an extra defender and for Xavi, to hold our position, to have more control, things that could help us. Cesc was still pushing forward, but we were down to
10 men. He played a great game, but sometimes we need other things.”
The match ended with Barcelona winning 4-5, and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 scoring even after La Blaugrana were down to ten men.
It was an intense situation and the Catalan giants needed a winning goal, and Lionel Messi was able to give them exactly what they were craving for.
The Spanish giants are still at the top of La Liga, eight points Real Madrid, who were able to win their respective La Liga fixture against Celta Vigo on Saturday.
Barcelona are now going to face Celtic in the UEFA Champions League during the midweek.
