Ivan Alejo brought down Alex Balde inside the area and Barcelona claimed a penalty, but the claim was denied.

Cadiz vs. Barcelona: The quality of De Jong and Bellerin is evident
De Jong was repeatedly linked to Manchester United over the summer, with Barcelona apparently willing to sell the Netherlands midfielder. In spite of this, this was a performance that demonstrated his quality and what he can bring to Barca.
After returning to the Camp Nou on September 1, Bellerin made his senior Barcelona debut after coming through La Masia. Despite a stagnant career in recent years, the 27-year-old had a hand in both Barcelona goals in the second half.
Due to Xavi, Sergino Dest left Barcelona for AC Milan during the transfer deadline day, demonstrating the Catalans still have a future option at right-back. This Barca team benefits from Bellerin’s attacking instincts. At the Camp Nou, he could have a good season.
Cadiz vs. Barcelona: Bayern ready for Barcelona
Lewandowski and Dembele were initially rested, with Xavi clearly focused on Bayern Munich’s Champions League game on Tuesday. As a result of this performance, the Catalans are ready to face the German champions.
In the summer, Barcelona made so many signings that it wasn’t clear whether Xavi would be able to form a strong team. Signings made by the club legend have started the season well and will hope to impose their own game on the reigning champions.
