JAKARTA - Joao Felix failed to bring Barcelona to win the match and was only able to draw 1-1 against Valencia in the La Liga match in Spain at the Mestalla Stadium, Sunday, December 17 in the morning WIB.

Barca were unable to meet the target. The team failed to break a bad record because they were only able to draw when competing against Valencia.

Previously, Barca lost two consecutive defeats in various competitions. After losing 4-2 against Girona in La Liga, the Blaugrana lost again in the Champions League match.

They were forced to give up 3-2 by host Royalikarp in the final match of Group H even though the defeat did not affect Barca's move to the last 16.

When visiting Valencia headquarters, Xavi Hernandez's team hoped to break that bad record. Unfortunately, despite winning first, Barca finally had to settle for a draw.

An additional one point can only close Barca's points close to two of its competitors, Girona and Real Madrid. Now, Los Cules, who are in third place, pocketed 35 points.

They are six points adrift with Girona in the top position. Meanwhile, Madrid, who is in second place, has 39 points. Only, both still have one game so that it is possible to stay away from Barca.

Valencia itself went up one strip even though it was in the middle board. They are ranked 10th by getting 20 points.

In that match, Barca were actually able to dominate. But they played under pressure because of the two defeats he suffered.

No wonder Barca can't penetrate the Los Che defense. Moreover, goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili performed brilliantly and made brilliant saves many times.

Striker Robert Lewandowski, at least, got two golden opportunities but Mamardashvili thwarted them all. Likewise, three other opportunities from Barca could not be converted into goals.

In the second half, Barca also still controlled the game. But they still failed to score.

Including when Ferran Torres, who lived to face Mamardashvili. This Georgia national team goalkeeper surprisingly thwarted Torres' shot.

Barca finally broke the deadlock in the 55th minute. Felix's close-range shot which met Raphinha's cross finally beat Mamardashvili.

Valencia didn't want to lose points while competing at home. They got up and as a result Hugo Guillamon managed to equalize the score in the 70th minute.

Guillemon's shot leading to the top corner of the goal could not be saved by goalkeeper Inaki Pena. The score changed to 1-1 and lasted until the end of the match.
