Messi and Barça were eliminated, PSG in the quarterfinals

Champions League 20-21

Game board

Barcelona out, but got what they wanted. Leo Messi and his teammates arrived tonight (Wednesday) at the Parc de France with their backs to the wall after 4: 1 in the first game of the quarterfinals at the Camp Nou, fought, were superior, gave the blood but finally did not get another huge remonade and came out with a respectable 1: 1 In the last 16 since 2007.

The Catalans did everything they could, and after Juan Laporta was appointed president and brought with him winds of change, the team did manage to put a lot of pressure on the French, especially in the first half, and Mauricio Pochettino’s side panicked and missed balls, but in the two games they were More efficient, and definitely deserves to be in the next step. For the first time since 2005 – neither Messi nor Cristiano Ronaldo in the quarterfinals. Stunning.

Similar to the game at the Camp Nou, we also got a great game at the Parc de France, no less huge. Barça came up with a very offensive line-up as Ronald Koeman picked up 3: 4: 3, sweeping the pitch. The Catalans did not stop kicking the goal from the first second but encountered a huge simple day of Kaylor Navas between the posts, with the goalkeeper preventing Osman Dembele, Leo Messi and Serginio Dest from a number of safe situations.

The Catalans failed to sting at an early goal and were punished themselves, with Clement Langela continuing his nightmarish season and tripping Mauro Icardi wide. Killian Ambape did not disappoint against Marc-Andre Ter Stegen and became the fastest in the history of the Champions League with 25 goals, when he scored from the penalty spot in the 30th minute and completed a fourth goal against the Catalans in his career, after the hat-trick in the previous game.

The flea woke up at this point and took all the nerves out on a tremendous simple kick from about 30 to between the crossbars in the 37th minute, which balanced the result. Unfortunately, the Catalans got their own penalty towards the end of the first half, but the flea failed against Navas, who knows him well from his days at Real Madrid and stunned with a big stop.

Later Koeman, unlike some games this season in which he barely responded, did make offensive substitutions, but his team was not accurate enough up front, and despite the war was left with only the compliments and not the ticket to the next stage. Ambape is undoubtedly the hero of the double-dealing, when in Neymar’s absence he took it upon himself to sweep his team on its back.
