Barcelona’s Brazilian forward Raphinha celebrates with teammates scoring his team’s first goal during the Spanish league football match between Athletic Club Bilbao and FC Barcelona at the San Mames stadium in Bilbao on March 12, 2023. AFPPIX: Raphinha's strike earned Barcelona an agonising 1-0 win over Athletic Bilbao on Sunday to restore their nine-point lead over Real Madrid at the top of La Liga.
In Barcelona's first game after being charged with corruption by Spanish prosecutors, they shut out the noise and took another step towards their first title since 2019. When Inaki Williams eventually did late on, the goal was disallowed after VAR spotted a handball by Iker Muniain in the build-up. With Ronald Araujo suspended, Xavi used Jules Kounde alongside Andreas Christensen and started Sergi Roberto at right-back.Athletic fans threw fake banknotes with the word “mafia” printed on them into the air, in protest after Barcelona’s corruption charge.“It surprises me this atmosphere of hostility towards Barca. It saddens me there’s hostility towards Barca at San Mames, I don’t think it’s good for society.
It was all Athletic again after that, with Berenguer hitting the post and Ter Stegen denying Muniain. The Basque side remain fourth, level on 45 points with third-place Atletico Madrid, who visit Girona on Monday.
