See what failed after Barca missed the record unbeaten?

Barcelona lost 4-5 against Levante in the 37th round of the La Liga in 2017/18, and the result ended ambitious for the Catalan giants' unbeaten run. Here are five things to draw from the game.

1. Barca dropped the record style

Barça's 43-game losing streak in La Liga was finally stopped, and it also prevented the Catalan giants from ending unbeaten. However, no one thought the defending champion La Liga ended his unbeaten run in an incredible way.

After less than an hour of play, Barca left Levante 5-1 ahead. The match took place as the teacher coach Ernesto Valverde is the team has just been relegated, while Levante is the championship team. Barca then up the strong but eventually still have to suffer 4-5 defeat. This crazy game is sure to be on the football history.

2. Failure is not as shocking as people think

If only look at the score, many people are not startled because Barca is the defending champion of the league, while Levante is only the team ranked in the bottom half of the table. However, if you look at the last nine matches in La Liga (before the game against Barca), no team has a better record than Levante. Coach Paco Lopez won seven matches, drew 1 and lost only one. In that way, they in turn beat Bilbao and Sevilla before the "meat" Barca.

3. Why is Messi missing?

While Barca still need Messi to record unbeaten in La Liga, but Valverde did not enter his name on the registration list. It is still unknown if the Argentine superstar will be absent, or Valverde wants him to take a break. On May 16, Barca will move to Johannesburg to play friendly against South African defender Mamelodi Sundowns, marking the upcoming 100th birthday of Nelson Mandela. Messi is obliged to be in that match, and Barça will accept the bet with unbeaten only to Messi friendly kick. This sounds ridiculous.

4. Goodbye Yerry Mina

Once again, Mina was given the chance by Valverde. However, the performance of the defender was considered a disaster. Placed next to Thomas Vermaelen, Mina consecutive mistakes made Barca take many goals conceded. Notably, the Catalan giants do not know what the win was in three matches for Mina 90 minutes in La Liga this season (1 loss, 2 draw). In the next season, the Colombian player will be given a "study abroad", and whether he has the opportunity to experience the atmosphere at the Nou Camp or not.

5. Class of Coutinho

Although Levante end the circuit unbeaten in La Liga, but Barca can still smile thanks to Philippe Coutinho. The former Liverpool midfielder had a fantastic hat-trick, and showed that without Messi, he was fit enough to handle Barça. This is the first match since joining Barca, Coutinho became the brightest star. Apparently, the Catalan giants can count on the future ahead in the presence of Coutinho.
