A well earned point (0-0)

Barça Atlètic have drawn away once again, this time 0-0 at Dènia, the seventh away draw for the side coached by Luís Enrique. Both sides squandered their few chances, and the game leaves Barça three points short of the promotion zone.


Barça Atlètic started well, but could only create goalscoring chances on isolated occasions. The real chances didn’t start coming until the end of the half.

Three good chances

That was then Barça’s reserves could have scored no fewer than three times. Benja and Jeffren tried from outside the area, but none of the efforts found the target.

And then in a set play from a corner, Barça Atlètic’s Rueda headed the cross, and was narrowly thwarted by the home keeper.

Rueda off

Luís Enrique then had to shuffle his pack when Rueda went off with stomach trouble in the 41st minute. Thiago was sent on to cover for the unexpected loss.

Defensive second half

The second half was lacking in goal mouth action. Neither side created any major danger, and although most of the possession belonged to Barça they managed to do very little of consequence with it. In fact, the only real shot of the entire second 45 minutes was a fairly timid strike from Jeffren.
A well earned point (0-0)
