Barça Atlètic Suffers Defeat in Pyrenees Trip
In a challenging encounter, Barça Atlètic experienced their first away loss of the season during a match against Andorra, where all three goals were scored in a dramatic final phase.
The game began with Barça Atlètic’s goalkeeper, Diego Kochen, making several impressive saves as the team faced an early onslaught from the opposition, who were relegated from the second tier last season. After a shaky start, the visitors began to find their footing.
Leading the charge for Barça, Unai Hernandez contributed significantly to the team’s improved performance. However, as Barça advanced in attack, Andorra took advantage of the spaces left open, putting pressure on the blaugrana defense. Despite a thrilling match, the score remained unchanged until the intense conclusion.
With just fifteen minutes remaining, Álvaro Peña scored a remarkable goal, putting Andorra ahead. In response, Barça adjusted their strategy, incorporating Víctor Barberà, who returned from a year-long loan at Bruges.
The tactical change proved effective when Óscar Ureña leveled the score with a long-range shot deflected into the net, with eight minutes left to play. However, the joy was short-lived; just three minutes later, Álvaro Martín restored Andorra’s lead with a well-executed goal.
Despite Barça Atlètic’s efforts to respond once more, they were unable to find the equalizer, leaving them without a win after two matches.
