Balde couldn't handle Atlético's quick breaks from Giuliano Simeone and Marcos Llorente, while Koundé struggled against Saúl Ñíguez and Antoine Griezmann's counters—issues echoed in a prior game against Mallorca. Both have played heavy minutes this season, with Balde over 1,800 in La Liga and Koundé nearing 2,000 across competitions, contributing to their dip in form.

Barça lead La Liga by one point, but the vulnerabilities highlight John Terry's point that defense wins titles.
