“The only one to blame,” “Killed that game” – Barcelona fans raise their voice against superstar after ‘really bad’ performance in 2-0 loss to Bayern Munich

Barcelona fans raise their voice against superstar after ‘really bad’ performance.
Barcelona fans were very unhappy with the performance of one of their new members

Barcelona fans have reason to be very unhappy with their 2-0 loss against Bayern Munich, with the Bavarians showing their clinical side in the Champions League Group C clash on Tuesday.

While the Blaugrana's great start to the season was dented due to their poor overall display, Barca fans were quick to slam their new striker Robert Lewandowski in particular.

The former Bayern forward made the switch to Camp Nou in the summer and started the season brightly, scoring six goals in five La Liga appearances. He has also impressed in the Champions League, where he scored three goals against Viktoria Plzen in their opening match of the continental campaign.

However, against his former employers on the night, Lewandowski was found wanting, with the new Barcelona man taking seven shots at goal and scoring none. His inability to find the net did not sit well with the Barca fans, who took to Twitter to criticize his efforts. Here is a selection of their tweets:


Bayern Munich beat Barcelona 2-0

The Bavarians went into the match with a fine recent record against the Catalans, winning the last four meetings between the sides with 14 goals and only conceding two.

The match also marked Robert Lewandowski's return to the Allianz Arena following his departure this summer. Despite both teams being in fine form domestically this season, they failed to find the back of the net in a quiet first half.

Barca edged their hosts in terms of possession and chances created in the first half, but the visitors were unable to secure the opening goal. Notably, an injury to Bayern Munich defender Benjamin Pavard was the major highlight of the half.

The hosts would reorganize at half-time and, following the introduction of Leon Goretzka for Marcel Sabitzer in the second half, they took the lead. Two goals in four minutes for Die Bayern saw them edge closer to victory against Barcelona on the night.

Lucas Hernandez scored a header from a Joshua Kimmich corner in the 50th minute before Leroy Sane doubled their lead after being played through brilliantly by Jamal Musiala.

The scoreline remained 2-0 in favor of the hosts and Barcelona had to endure a fifth consecutive loss to the Bavarians at the final whistle. Lewandowski will head back to Catalonia with a stinging defeat at the hands of his former employers.

Bayern Munich will hope to build on the result over their Catalan visitors with aspirations of going all the way in the Champions League this season.
