Without Messi, Argentina releases list for qualifying with signs of renewal

FC Barcelona, ​​still unable to register their star signing Dani Olmo, struggled to beat Athletic Club 2-1, with Nico Williams playing for them, a target for the Blaugrana team since the end of the European Championship, this Saturday in the second round of LaLiga.

Already the scorer of a double in Valencia at the start of the Spanish championship, Polish striker Robert Lewandowski gave his team the three points by taking advantage of a clearance by visiting goalkeeper Álex Padilla in the 75th minute.

With these three points, Barça is now equal with Celta de Vigo as the only two teams with a perfect record of victories.

With a convincing collective game in the second official match of their new coach Hansi Flick, the Catalan club had opened the scoring through their prodigy Lamine Yamal, whose shot was deflected by the head of Iñigo Lekue (24), although Sancet had equalised from a penalty decreed by the VAR on Álex Berenguer (42).

The Basque team, champion of the Copa del Rey and fifth in the League last season, has only earned one point in the first two games.

Nico Williams, who played the full 90 minutes but was discreet on the pitch, was booed by the Barça fans at the Estadio Olímpico Lluís Companys after not signing for Barça.
