La Blaugrana finished March with a shocking 4-0 loss of Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu and followed that up with a hard-battled 1-0 triumph over Sevilla.
Yet, from that point forward, note Diario Sport, things have turned out badly.
Barcelona lost to Eintracht Frankfurt to leave the Europa League - a rivalry they needed to win - at the quarter-last stage.
They scratched a triumph over Levante prior to enduring loss to Cadiz and Rayo Vallecano at Camp Nou, beating Real Sociedad barely in the middle. It's made a negative climate.
The deficiency of Pedri, who capitulated to injury during the duel with Eintracht, has been crucial. Yet, it shouldn't have significantly affected Barcelona's structure.
They've gone from playing with total surrender to being not able to separate even the most modest of rivals.
It's presently dependent upon Xavi Hernandez to recalibrate his soldiers to guarantee there's no mistakes in the race for a Champions League place.
The title is gone - Barcelona are 15 focuses behind pioneers Madrid.
In any case, they're level on focuses with Sevilla, two in front of Atletico Madrid and six clear of Real Betis. There's five games left and they'll need to get their best four spot as quickly as time permits.
