Farce. This is how the last match of the Spanish colossus Barcelona in the Champions League can be qualified. Benfica slapped the Catalans with a loud slap and defeated them 3-0 in a match in which Barça did not make a single accurate shot at the opponent’s goal.
After 49 years, the Catalans again suffered two consecutive defeats in the biggest European club tournament. And what – both “classic” (with 3: 0), as one of them against Bayern Munich at the mythical “Camp Nou”. That “Camp Nou” with almost 100,000 capacity, which was considered an indestructible fortress.
Yes, but the defeat was from Bayern . Since when does Barcelona justify its losses with the name of the opponent? How come one of the greatest football clubs in the world (if not the greatest) considers it normal to lose 0: 3 as a host?
Barcelona is totally ruined. Leave the results, there is no champion mentality. That thinking in the players, the coaches, the management, the fans that made this team great. Barcelona, which every other team in the world feared. And now – a harmless rival for teams like Granada and Cadiz …
The year is 2021 and Lionel Messi is no more. The footballer who carried the last few seasons of the team on his own. Seasons in which Barcelona was facing its collapse, but Messi somehow managed to cover it up. However, the problems at the Camp Nou have swelled with each passing year and have now erupted like a powerful geyser that cannot be stopped.
This Barcelona team is tragic, and with it the most loyal fans of the Catalans agree. Leave the qualities of the players – it is clear that you can not replace Messi with Luke de Jong. Or continue to rely on players like Gerard Pique and Sergio Busquets, who have not been what they used to be. But the strangest thing is that (almost) no one in the team defends the team’s emblem with heart and soul.
There are no leaders, there are no heart players: Barcelona has become a team without soul. And this is not about money, managers, presidents. Here we are only talking about character, self-sacrifice, team spirit. Do not bow your head on the field and do not put up with 3-0 defeats, even if they are from Bayern. What we are seeing today is not Barcelona – this is FARSelona …
