Barcelona fans slam attacker after being ‘gutted’ by his display in 2-1 loss to Rayo Vallecano

Barcelona fans were livid with Raphinha for his performance during the 2-1 La Liga loss to Rayo Vallecano.

Alvaro Garcia Rivera gave Vallecano the lead in the first half before Fran Garcia made it 2-0 in the second half. While Robert Lewandowski pulled one back for the visitors, it proved to be only a consolation.

Barca slipped their chance of going 14 points clear of Real Madrid atop the La Liga table. While Los Blancos suffered a 4-2 defeat to Girona, the Blaugrana lost their game as well. Xavi’s side has 76 points from 31 matches.

Raphinha, however, was the player who received the majority of the criticism. The Brazilian winger completed no dribbles and made zero successful crosses during the clash against Vallecano.

He won no aerial duels, committed three fouls, and lost possession of the ball a massive 21 times. Fans lambasted the attacker for his display. One wrote on Twitter:

“REMOVE RAPHINHA!!! HE’S AN ENEMY!”

Another claimed:

“RAPHINHA GET OUT OF MY CLUB RIGHT NOW.”

Raphinha arrived at the club from Leeds United in the summer. He has since scored nine goals and has provided 10 assists in 43 matches. His performance against Vallecano, though, was far from impressive.

Here are some of the best reactions across Twitter after Raphinha’s performance during Barcelona’s 2-1 La Liga loss against Rayo Vallecano:
