Barça Atlètic 1-1 SD Tarazona: Insufficient point
It wasn’t to be. Despite dominating from start to finish, Barça Atlètic drew 1-1 with SD Tarazona at the Estadi Johan Cruyff this Saturday. Although the visitors went ahead through Llácer, Toni Fernández equalised before the break. The blaugranes couldn’t find a winner in the second half and remain in the relegation zone, now 11 games without a victory with 10 games to go.
Hard start
As expected, Barça looked to control possession, while Tarazona set up defensively and eyed chances on the counter. Breaking their five-man backline proved difficult early on. The first real chance came in the 26th minute when Cédric hit the crossbar after a Dacosta cross.
Goal time
Barça’s misfortune grew when Llácer capitalized on a defensive lapse to make it 1-0 to the visitors. But Toni Fernández responded quickly with a fine left-footed strike from the edge of the box to level the score on 36 minutes, with no further change before half-time.
Unrewarded efforts
Barça stayed calm and controlled the second half, with Toni and Dacosta providing width and threat. Cédric remained the main danger, having a goal ruled out for a tight offside and narrowly missing another chance.
Sergi Milà made several changes—bringing on Trilli, Guille, Jan Virgili, Darvich, and Jofre Torrents—but Barça lacked precision in the final third. Guille had two late chances, and Trilli tested Fuoli with a powerful shot in stoppage time, but the score stayed as it was and it all ended 1-1.
