Villarreal's late goals shock Barcelona, leading to a 5-3 victory in a roller-coaster La Liga match. Xavi's future in jeopardy as champions falter.
In a thrilling La Liga clash, Villarreal pulled off a stunning 5-3 victory against Barcelona with two late goals, shaking up the title race. Barcelona's defense crumbled as they conceded three goals in added time, leaving them 10 points behind leaders Real Madrid. The defeat spelled trouble for Xavi Hernández, who announced he will step down as Barcelona's head coach at the end of the season. The dramatic loss marked a turning point for Barcelona as they faced a major setback in their title defense.
Interestingly, Xavi's decision to leave Barcelona has sparked speculation about potential replacements, with Garcia Pimienta from Las Palmas emerging as a candidate with 'Barca DNA.' The departure of Xavi, a Barcelona icon, has raised concerns about the team's future dynamics and coaching strategy. While the club grapples with Xavi's exit, fans are left pondering the impact of this transition on Barcelona's performance and standing in La Liga.
