the FC Barcelona is walked easily to the quarterfinals of the Champions League thanks to its super-trio. The defending to World Footballer Lionel Messi and goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen let the 3: 1 (1: 0) against Arsenal burn anything more, already the first leg in London had the Catalans with 2. 0
the superstars Neymar (18), Luis Suárez (65) and Lionel Messi (88th) scored for the Spaniard, who reached for the ninth time in a row the last eight and the first team in history the title in the want to defend the Champions League successfully. “We have passed the difficult task and solved it with flying colors. Now we look at what is still possible, “said ter Stegen in ZDF.
Arsenal came with World Champion Mesut Özil in the starting lineup and Per Mertesacker on the bench by Mohamed Elneny (51) for temporary equalizer. Ter Stegen was with the hit without a chance and defused in the 80th minute a free kick by Alexis Sanchez with a fine save.
“Barcelona is about 95 percent by” Arsenal’s team manager Arsène Wenger had said before kick-off. His team began before 76,092 spectators at the Camp Nou in more English Dauerregen yet bold, 20 minutes was not much to see from the Spaniards.
But then saw the lead settling at Barca. Luis Suárez played Neymar free on the left, the Brazilian enforced freezing. Then the Spaniards were allowed to run the ball at will, ter Stegen was hardly required. In Arsenal’s best chance headed ex-Barca professional Alexis Sánchez just wide (39.).
Cracked was the resistance of the Gunners yet, however. Shortly after the break Sánchez could freely adjust before the area where the Egyptians Elneny from 20 meters ter Stegen with visitors ahead near post had no chance. A little later, had Danny Welbeck (58) even the chance to put the London, before a superb goal from Suarez brought the decision. A cross from Dani Alves promoted the Uruguayans at the front post into the top corner.
While Barca has therefore lost only one of the last 37 home games in the Champions League, conceding Özil and Co. the third check within a few days. After the off in the FA Cup and the Elf-point deficit in the league on league leaders Leicester City the Gunners will finish the season well Untitled. Criticism of Team Manager Arsene Wenger is expected to be reactivated – Cup finalist Barcelona contrast may continue from Triple dreaming
