Yep, that was the issue during the match. The shots looked impressive, but they were exactly the kind of shots a solid Champions League goalkeeper is expected to handle.

I haven’t watched the match, so the result probably doesn’t reflect the full picture. HOWEVER, if we’re talking overall, it seems like Valverde is continuing his UCL Barca legacy in Bilbao.

It’s very strange that Flick didn’t opt for Christensen during the match, especially considering how sharp and defensively aware he looked in the last few games, despite being sidelined for most of the season due to injury.

I agree that Fort might improve, but as I see it, there’s a reason why Flick prefers Martin over him. When Fort was given a chance to impress, he failed—both offensively and defensively. And with each new match, his performance showed no real progress. Giving him more minutes, especially when...

Overall, the Inter match raises more questions than it gives answers. Flick is a good manager—there’s no doubt about that. But this match clearly exposed some serious flaws in his approach, especially when it comes to managing high-stakes games. First and most importantly: why on earth did...

Fort is totally unreliable. There have been plenty of times when he had the chance to come through, and he completely screwed it up.

On my fraud watch. Easily one of the most disappointing players on the pitch. When Pedri came off, he had both the chance and the responsibility to take control and create something. Instead—nothing. No creativity, no urgency, no spark. He had time on the ball, but produced zero interceptions...

He looked gassed by the end, and to make matters worse, De Jong offered him little to no support throughout the match.

It honestly feels like this team never learns from its mistakes. Barça were up 3-2 with just 5–6 minutes left. And what do they do? Instead of managing the game, slowing things down, and killing the tempo—like Inter did—they immediately rush to put the ball back into play. Why? What’s the...

Disappointing. Was too quiet during the match.

He probably should have done better on the second goal. He marked the player who headed the ball to Dumfries. But overall he tries to do the best he can.

Right now, I think it’s fair to say that Xavi isn’t a world-class coach—at least not yet. His main strength seems to be spotting young talent and helping them grow, and honestly, that might be the only thing he was really good at. When it comes to tactics, building a solid defense or attack...

I have to say it, guys a very disappointing night. Here I am, back home, deciding to watch yet another Barca game, hoping for a solid and entertaining performance. I’d already checked the news and knew that Barca had the chance to go 6 points clear, which could’ve been huge in sealing the...

An absolutely embarrassing goal to concede. Man, why were you even holding the player? Just jump and clear the damn ball! It’s not rocket science. Keep it simple and stop overcomplicating things!

A very frustrating performance. The same goes for Yamal. Both were poor in the second half, with heavy first touches and wasted promising chances. He probably needs a rest, but unfortunately, there’s no clear alternative to replace him

He should've come on instead of Yamal, not Torres. Ideally, he should've started the game. With more minutes, he likely would’ve scored. Once he came on, the left flank consistently created promising half-chances

A disappointing result. It should've been a straightforward win and a chance to go six points clear in first place. Now, there's added pressure to seal the league.

Whenever he had the ball in a dangerous position, he consistently squandered the opportunity. A very poor performance by his usual standards.

If it ever comes down to penalty shootouts, he should be one of the last to take one. Both of his attempts were very poor. He got lucky the goalkeeper went the other way on the second one.

Was creative when in tight spaces. But average performance overall.
