CL | 1/8 Finals: FC Barcelona - Lyon 5-1 agg.

[TrueCule]

I believe that the players were aware that they're playing CL match midweek and thus conserved energy for the match against Lyon. I believe that they will give everything out there on the pitch tomorrow. Lyon is a perfect opponent for us at this stage of the competition. It's going to boost our morale if we perform well. If the players will be fully motivated and prepared, we can already decide the tie tomorrow and then rest the players for the second leg. If Lyon surprises us, we can easily turn the tie around like we did against Sevilla.

Depressing watching what Barca side with hungry Etoo, Messi and Henry where everyone ran. And that best midfield ever

I'm expecting ugly football and a win.

I think this might end like the Atletico game at Wanda. We are 1-0 down and somehow scrap a late equalizer. Hope I'm wrong.

1-1 would be a good result imo.

1-1 would be a good result imo.

I wouldn't call it great, but a decent one. As long as we score there, we should be good, even if we lose by a goal.

Lyon 2
Barca 1

1-3

 

[Barcilliant]

3-1 Lyon.

Defense is shaky, attack misfiring too.

 

[sickstar]

I say we could win. 2-1

 

[Richard.H]

2-2. Messi will save the day per usual

4-1 barcelona

I just rewatched sevilla 2nd leg when Barca was intense and focused. The attacking was dynamic (including Suarez, Coutinho, Rakitic, Roberto & of course Messi), that was w/o Dembele though w Arthur. I think Barca scores 3 allows 1, Lyon flirting in CL gets a rude awakening and tie is over manana.

 

[Giginho75]

5-0 Lyon
So the haters of Valverde will be happy.

Finally! Matchday in Champions league again

I think we will win this 1-3. Dembele with a brace
