Youth League

Unfortunately no thread to this year's edition. Our boys on the way to get their 4th win. 2:0 ht lead in Manchester against City.

Would it be worth having a Juvenil A sticky thread in the same manner as we have for the B team? I'd commented about this afternoon's game in the B team thread as I didn't see anywhere relevant for it

 

[Barcaman]

Mboula and Cucurela on left flank looking good, so is Busquets.

Lee in now for Mboula.

 

[Barcaman]

Playing Porto today in quarter-final.

Any thoughts?

Playing Porto today in quarter-final.

Any thoughts?

Watch Dani Morer closley! I love his football ...

Cheers. I meant our chances vs. Porto.

Barca started the much better team.

Porto look quite dangerous on break though.

 

[JamDav1982]

Porto look like a team of bigger, older players instructed to play like thugs and hack down Barca players whenever they have space.

Sad way to approach youth level football.

 

[Barcaman]

Would love to watch but had to take my youth to football

Pretty much Porto sitting deep trying to hit on break.

Bigger players who are out muscling or just plainly fouling Barca players whenever they get any space.

Referee needs to get a grip of it.

No one in Barca really standing out. They are doubling up on Mboula and not much coming through middle or other side.

Bruno Costa scores for Porto.

 

[JamDav1982]

Not enough individual quality from Barca.

Only Mboula stands out. Rest look decent but nothing special. Pass the ball to death and Porto dealing with it too easily.

 

[JamDav1982]

Great pass to open them up 1-1.

 

[JamDav1982]

2-1 Barca.

Mboula pen.

Porto rough house tactics came back to bite them. Stupid challenge in box.

 

[Barcaman]

Thanx mate

I've seen Mboula in group stages last year and he also stood out then.

They will play Salzburg in the next round.
Salzburg already eliminated Man City,PSG and Atletico.
