Barcelona have one objective for the upcoming 26 -27 season, and that's winning the Champions League.You see, since 2015, with all the money they've spent, all the talent they've brought up, they have failed to win the Champions League.I do feel like this could be the season Barcelona end their Champions League curse, as they've got a bunch of players who are returning as World Cup winners.Also, the Barca president has done a good job so far, bringing in Anthony Goran, as well as Karim, the dream Atalemi, and already we can see it's going to be an important signing because Rafinha has been struggling with injury.I'm not sure if he's going to be available for the start of the season.That's why we're going to have Gordon there ready to go.
I think Andy Emme has been signed to be backup for Lamin Yama, especially because it's been a long, long season for Lamin.Didn't look particularly fully fit at the World Cup.I think if we were to get Barcelona the Champions League this season, we're going to have to be very careful with how we manage all these superstars, because they've played so much football over the last year.We don't want a big injury.I mean, already we're dealing with a big injury.Frenkie de Jong at the World Cup.
He had a knee injury.He continued playing and he made it super worse.Thankfully the midfield department Barcelona are covered Now, despite the signings of Gordon and Adeyemi, I feel like this team still needs more.We've got to find a reliable centre -back partner for Kubasi, someone with a bit of experience.Because I feel like in the last couple of years, Kubasi not having an experienced veteran alongside him has really cost him.He's made stupid decisions in big Champions League games and that's really cost Barcelona.
But at the World Cup, when he had someone like Laporte alongside him, he looked unbeatable.I think that's going to be number one on our transfer agenda, getting Kubasi a centre -back partner.Also, I do think we need a backup.fullback, someone with a different profile than Conde, maybe someone who can even cover for Valde and to be honest, I can only think of one player, Joao Cancelo.In fact, he's made it very obvious that he wants to return back to Barcelona, but man is it gonna be expensive.This will cost upwards of 29 million, but it really solves our problem.
We'll keep the fullback decision on our agenda, but there's something bigger that we need to discuss.With Robert Leventhalgone, I think Barcelona are desperate for a new number 9.I know Ferran Torres scored the World Cup winning goal, but if we look at overall what he offers, I don't think he's good enough to leave the line.Barcelona need someone better.And it's very obvious the player Juan Laporta, the president of Barcelona, wants.
Julian Alvarez.To be honest, he is a special player.But I don't know how we're gonna pull all of this off with our budget.78 million, that's all what we've got?Huh.This year, Gordon was expensive.
I think if we want to sort out three new transfers, we're gonna have to make sacrifices some players might need to be sold.Now, this is gonna be a bit controversial, but I'm gonna be okay to let Ronald Araujo leave.I feel like we've got enough centre -backs at the club.Besides that, we are gonna look to bring in one more centre -back.And Araujo, who's worth about 30 million, could really help us fund other transfers.Now, hold on, guys.
I was expecting offers to come in for Araujo, but there's a big one from Bayern Munich for Ferran Torres.I know this sounds crazy, because Ferran Torres has just won the World Cup, but if we're anywhere gonna keep him as backup, I'd rather take the cash.This could help us possibly fund the Julian Alvarez transfer.Also, Real Madrid want him, which we're gonna reject.He's not going to our rival.But I am willing to negotiate with Bayern Munich, where for some reason they've reduced the money they were willing to pay.
And okay, I see why.Ferran's contract is expiring in 11 months.Bayern have the upper hand.And that's our first big decision of the season.Ferran Torres has been sold.World Cup winning goal, but 53 .5 million is not a small amount.
I think we can use a big portion of that money to fund the Cancelo transfer.Not gonna lie, 33 million for him feels crazy, but hey, he's proven himself at Barca, Hansi Flick likes him, we're making it happen.Now that's one part of our transfer agenda done, we still need to try and bring in a centre -back as well as a striker, because now with Ferran Torres sold, we literally have no one.Okay, I'm still in the process of generating revenue, and we've got a couple of offers here for Rooney Barca.
Don't think we need him, especially since Lamine is the main man.We've got Adeyemi.
Also an offer from Manchester United for Ronald Araujo.43 .2 million.Now I think with both Bardagi and Araujo's sale, and oh yes, 142 million is our budget, that'll surely be good enough to bring in another centre -back.The big question is though, can we pull off the Julian Alvarez signing?Because obviously, that is what Barcelona wants.But the question is, How do we even get a deal with Atletico?
They're not willing to even discuss.And this is where I think the president of Barcelona, Juan Laporta, needs to be putting more pressure.In fact, apparently he's had a chat with Julian Alvarez, who is now refusing to head into training with Atletico.He's missed pre -season.Usually when players put this kind of pressure, clubs are eventually forced to sell them.And this isn't the first time Barcelona are doing this to Atletico.
They've done it before with players like Griezmann.I don't know if this is gonna work, but we still have about four weeks until the window shuts.Maybe there will be an opportunity to sign Julian Alvarez.We need to be prepared for that.Until then, I'm focusing on bringing in an experienced centre -back partner for Kubasi.One of the options I've got is also a fellow World Cup winner, Cristian Romero.
He's trying to do everything possible to get out of Spurs.And because of that, we'd be able to get him for a really cheap price of just 22 million.Way below his market price.But also for a similar amount, we could get Aymeric Laporte.playing for Bilbao.That would be a proven centre -back partnership with Kubasi.
Yes, it would be a short -term signing, but I think this is what Barca needs right now.Laporte and Kubasi won the World Cup together.They can probably win the Champions League as well.And I do feel like with Romero's aggression, I don't know if that's a good pairing with Kubasi.I guess it's good that it's former Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde on the other side.We've got a deal of 19 .5 million for Laporte.
And with that, Barcelona are gonna have another World Cup winner at the club.So find me. seem like we've just signed a bunch of old players.But guys, that is what this youngteam needs.Look at how young the core is.Lamine, Pedri, Kovacic, Gavi, they're all under 25.
Experience is what this team needs and we've given them that.But now we've got to figure out a way to bring in Julian Alvarez.118 million in the bank.And I want to try and get some more cash.And I might do that by sacrificing Andreas Christensen.20 million for him.

Get started freeThat should give us enough cash we need for Julian Alvarez.I think this was the right move.But we're now fast approaching the start of the La Liga season.And Atletico still don't want to negotiate.By the way, Alvarez is continuing to do his job.He's not attending training.
In fact, he's out of the squad for Atleti's first game of the season.We're just waiting for the moment when Atleti caves.But now all we can do is focus on La Liga, get off to a good start this season, build some momentum.But we do have a problem.An email from the medical team.in the World Cup Final.
We recommend not fielding them until the start of September.Well, that changes everything, because then this is the lineup we've got to start off our La Liga season.No Pedri, no Lamin Yamal, no Kubasi.Now, we can still play them, but our medical team says that it'll be an increased chance of an injury, and we don't want that.Guess this is why Barcelona were really quick in signing the likes of Anthony Gordon at the EMI.Because in a forced World Cup season, we're gonna need a lot of quality and depth.
Even without most of our superstars, one thing's for sure.For sure, Hansi Flick was gonna stick to his principles.Barcelona were playing with that extreme highline.And it was a bit shaky, especially without Koubasi in there.And also without our forwards, no Rampinha, no Lamin Yama.It really was looking like we were gonna start the season off with a draw.
Anthony Gordon's now on the ball.Good touch as he looks for Alejandro Baldy who's made the run.Cutback for Fermin Lopez!That's a big goal for Fermin.He missed out on the World Cup because of injury.He's got a point to prove this season and also Baldy.
He was admittedfrom the Spain squad.He's now showing what he can do.This was a massive win for Barcelona, especially with all the superstar absentees.Post -match press conference though, they were only asking Hansi Flick one question, Julian Alvarez.Are Barcelona gonna sign him or not?
It's now the transfer deadline day and Barcelona need a striker.I don't know if it's gonna be Julian Alvarez.I mean, I have looked at another option and of course, Jao Pedro, but who Julian is the one we want.I think if he comes in, instantly we'll become Champions League contenders.That is the missing piece of this Barcelona project.And it does look like the pressure Julian has put on Atletico has worked.
They are now willing to sell him.In fact, they had even accepted an offer from Arsenal.But Julian does not want to go to Arsenal.We know where he wants to go.I think now even Atletico realise that there's no point keeping a player unhappy.And it's taken them a couple of months.
But they have caved.We can now negotiate for Julian Alvarez and get this one over.over the line.And looks like Atleti have set a fixed fee of 125 million.I'm accepting it bro.I've waited so long for this.
And so Julian Alvarez is free from the shackles of Atleti.He's been unchained and he's heading to his dream club in Barcelona.Now we've got the Catalan derby next, which is going to be important because we did lose our last La Liga game to Elche.Can't blame the team, man.We're missing so many players and we still don't have the World Cup winners available for this game.But we do have Julian Alvarez who we've just signed.
I am a bit worried though about Julian signing because if you look at Barcelona's track record of superstar transfers They have mostly been flops.I mean look at the last big superstar from Atletico Antoine Griezmann Barcelona literally got frauded in that transaction, and we're not off to a good start here We concede to Espanyol.I know we're missing our superstars, but that's no excuse to lose a Catalan derby Now we've not seen much from Adeyemi, but let's see what he can do and I see space for Alvarez The lovely ball in, here we touchdown, but Alvarez gets to it his first time Skål!Blaugrana colours.Oh, at the Emmys, face down, that right side is blistering, no one can keep up with him, another cutback for Alvarez, what a finish!The comeback is complete against Espanyol and it does look like Alvarez is not going to be a flop signing like Coutinho or Griezmann.
We're finally now in September, gearing up for our first Champions League game, which is against Chelsea.And this is not going to be an easy game, especially with Xabi Alonso as their manager.But good news for us.Our World Cup winners are back in action.The medical team has cleared them.Lamine, Henry, Koubasi, Rafinha even.
They're all starting in this massive game.And instantly, the difference in this team with Lamine, Yamal on the pitch.And here he is on the ball, Lamine spreading it wide, lovely pass for Firmin, Lopez, can he finish?No, he can't, but Alvarez is there pick up the pieces.Lamine isn't gonna get the assist for that, but he created that goal.Not gonna lie, this Chelsea team is actually decent.
Look at them attack right now.Chao Pedro with the chance, Juan Garcia making the save.Looks like our World Cup -winning partnership of Kubasi and Laporte were in for a rough night, but they defended brilliantly.Oh, Koundé makes a mistake, and it leaves a chance for Gittens, and fair enough.I do feel bad for Laporte and Kubasi.They've been brilliant at the back, but now it's 1 -1, and instantly Hansi Flick is making his army of substitutions.
Anthony Gordon comes on.And this is Hansi Flick's mentality.He does not want to settle for a draw.He wants to go for the kill.And with Anthony Gordon's pace, chances were there.Since those substitutions, it's been all Barcelona.
Pedres on the ball.Looks for Dani Olmo, who was also brought on from distance.Dani Olmo!Just like that, Barcelona pick up a 2 -1 win against Chelsea.And look at where we are in the Champions League.Four games played, four wins.
I don't think getting into that top eight is going to be a problem.The bigger problem seems to be in La Liga.There go Simeone's Atletico Madrid, who are right now top of the league.I mean, we're only a couple of points behind them, so I'm not too worried.And I'm also glad that this game is being played at the Camp Nou.Otherwise, Julian Alvarez would have had a really tough night.
I'm pretty sure, though, Alvarez is desperate to score against this former club, proving a point.Uh -oh, we've given away a counter -attacking chance to Atletico Madrid, who are bombing forward here with Lukman.Good pass in for Barrios.Back for Sorlop, and the Giant has scored!And of course, the camera -ban straight to Julen Alvarez, who looks like he's going through it all.Man, Atletico's game plan, look at the way they're treating Lamin Yamal.

Get started freeAtletico is the one team Hansi Flick's Barcelona has struggled against.Last season, they knocked Barca out of the Champions League.We need players to take more initiative, and that's what Pedri is doing, who's now wearing the armband this season.Here goes Pedri, cuts it back inside, goes for goal, save for weight.The ref's given a penalty!Golden chance to get back into this game.
Lameen Yamal stepping up.Can he convert?Can Lameen keep his composure?Of course he can't!Against Atletico, nothing is going our way!Despite missing that penalty, Lameen is not shying away from the ball.
He looks to put it across and there's Julian Alvarez!It just had to be Alvarez to score against his former club!1 -1!It's now looking like Atletico are happy to play for the draw.But that is not how Hansi Flick goes about things.He's making his substitutions to push for the win.
But maybe those changes were a bit too aggressive because Atletico Atletico now on the counter -attack, have a chance, they've broken through!And it's 2 -1 Atleti.Barcelona though are not gonna give up.Dani Olmo on the ball, sees Anthony Gordon running through.This could be his first Barcelona goal and it is!Gordon is proving to be the ultimate supersub.
This is dangerous, Solot with the ball, Kubasi defends that well but he gives it away.Atletico have a chance and they've made it 3 -2.Have we just bottled this game?If we lose here, Atletico are gonna have a 5 -point lead over us in La Liga.Well it's not over though, cause Dani Olmo's trying to make something happen.But good defending from Atleti, but that is bizarre.
What did Musou do?That is the most bizarre own goal I think I've ever seen.We'll take it though.A terrible back pass, but an even goal.Yeah, Mahle has won the World Cup and the Euros I think I'll keep trusting him with penalties I feel Gavi has earned his spot.
He will start this game.
Mourinho was Madrid boss.The Clasico was the most heated it ever was.And Mourinho's team is already on the charge of Bellingham finding space for Valverde.This was not the start we wanted.Rafinha's made a lovely run and there's Julian Alvarez inside the box.Alvarez gets his back in it.
That's already his 10th goal in La Liga.One thing's for sure, he's been a super successful signing.Okay, now we're seeing Madrid getting opened up here.Lovely ball for Julian Alvarez.Oh my days.I don't know what was better, Lamine's cross or Alvarez's finish.
Oh Mbappe's gone through and well he gets a goal back for Real Madrid.Barca still have the lead, it's 3 -2. And you think this is where Hansi Flick would try to just keep things calm?Instead the madman makes five substitutions.He wants to score more.But has Hansi Flick played himself here because Mbappe's running at us and killing Mbappe.It's 3 -3. SUBSIDUTION
were necessary.It's now the momentum is completely with Real Madrid who try to go for another one.Juan Garcia thankfully gets there.
Lamina's broken through.
Lamina, well, oh, he tried to go for the finish.I think he should have cut it back.De Jong who's now finally getting some action.And he's making mistakes.It does not feel like it's the same De Jong.But this does feel like the same Mbappé who looks ruthless.
He's coming at us again!Mbappé with the hat -trick!Has Barcelona just completely thrown this game away?There's not much time left and Alvarez was taken out!From the resulting free kick, we take it short.Looking to create space.
Joao Cancelo does get the ball.Cuts inside.Powers the keeper.Save that.Mourinho's Real Madrid pick up a historic win against Barcelona.Post -match Hansi Flick He's been grilled for his decisions.
And as if things couldn't get worse, we get a message from our medical team.Rafinha has stolen his hamstring.He's going to be out for three to four months.And it's not just him.Even Aymeric Laporte, he's stolen his quadricep muscle and he'll be out for two months.To be honest, I'm anyway not impressed with him.
We're not seeing the World Cup form that he had.There's a reason Laporte went to the Saudi League.Coming back to now an intense league like La Liga where every game matters.It's not easy.Now with Rafinha's injury, I'm perfectly happy to tell you Anthony Gordon.We also have Adi Emi for backup.
But in defense, even though Eric Garcia has gone up to an 85 overall, I'm not too sure if that partnership is worthy of winning the Champions League.Now, we are in the January window, so we could make some emergency signings.We will have to sell players, though, to make it happen.I don't want to do that.I guess the plan is to see how we get along in the Spanish Super Cup and then make a decision.Now, in the semifinals against Bilbao, we just had too much firepower for them.

Get started freeBut the impressive thing was that the partnership of Kubasi and Eric Garcia really worked and we kept a clean sheet.And oh wow, Atletico Madrid knocked out Real Madrid.I thought we were going to see a Clasico in the final.But I do feel like this is the perfect test for our backline because we did concede three goals.against Atleti the last time we faced them.Not gonna lie, I am worried about this giant Sorloth up against our defense, and right now it's Atletico on the charge.
We have been opened up pretty easily.Juan Garcia making the save.Flaminia Mallet's now on the ball, and in big games, he normally always performs, and there's the goal!Oh, and we can now kill this game off as Pedri looks for Anthony Gordon.Oh, what a heavy touch!If Gordon wants to replace Rafinha, he's gonna have to do better.
Second half and Atleti are trying to create chances.But Eric Garcia, man, what a performance.And on the other side, Barcelona on the break.Femin Lopez looking for Lamin.Yeah, well, this is the position he loves to be in.Curls it inside.
What a finish.Lamin with the brace.as Barcelona win the Spanish Super Cup.But more than even the trophy, the important thing is that we kept a clean sheet in both the semis and the finals.A big contrast from what was happening at the start of the season.It's transfer deadline day, but I think the decision has been made.
We're going to trust the backline of Eric Garcia and Kubasi.And yes, Rafinha is going to be a big miss.And Anthony Gordon is not as clinical, but we're going to give him a chance to shine.But this is the team we're going to try and win everything with.Quarterfinals of the Spanish Cup, and we had to draw Real.Real Madrid, man. I was hoping this would be the final.
In a way, this is kind of a final, because if we beat Madrid, I don't see any other team stopping us from winning the Spanish Cup.And I guess it's another big test for Eregasi and Kubasi, because last time we faced Real Madrid, we conceded four goals and we ended up losing.The first minute itself, Madrid on the charge, and I mean, what has Mourinho done with this team?Because Vinny Junior, he's been unlocked!Last time it was Mbappe that destroyed us, this time it's Vinny!But oh, is it going to be an instant response from La Minimal?
That fake shot sold the defender and the finish!That's how La Minimal responds!But why is it impossible to defend against this Madrid team?Fede Valverde scores!Nah bro, this Madrid team with all their new signings announced Bernardo Silva, who makes it 3 -1!I don't know what Jose Mourinho has done, but this Madrid team looks impossible to beat.
Anthony Gordon, we need you to step up.
We need you to step up.How he scored to our saving that?Firmin Lopez in a bit of space and some good build up play up.Firmin has managed to break through and that's what he does.He missed the World Cup with his injury, but now he gets a moment in an El Clasico.But this is crazy guys, Spellingham makes it 4 -2. But okay, Madrid have been caught lacking here.
It's Julian Alvarez.Let's get Seagal back.It's halftime and this has been one of the craziest El Clasico's ever.4 -3 Madrid are leading but we're still in it.Although I'm already regretting maybe not signing a centre -back.Because man, Eric Garcia and Kobasi, they were all over the place.
I mean, yeah, well, and now look at the open spaces.This has been a crazy game.And now, I mean, Lopez with the finish.It's 4 -0 now.And oh, can we not let Madrid straight away get a goal back?But Mbappé has just bolstered through our defense.
The post saves us.No, no, no, no.Juan Garcia, what a save.And now on the break, Anthony Gordon's got a chance here.Can Gordon keep his composure?Anthony Gordon, yes.
We trusted him and he's repaid the faith.5 -4 against Madrid.And oh, man, we do get a classical win this season.season.Yes, it's only in the Spanish Cup, but this effectively means that we have a great chance of winning the entire trophy.And yes, after knocking out Real Madrid, we get the job done against Villarreal, which means we are going to be playing a Spanish Cup final against Girona.
Right now, we're going to have to turn our attentions to the Champions League, where Barcelona have drawn Inter in the Rana 16.And I sense some revenge in the air, because a couple of years ago, Inter knocked Barcelona out of the Champions League semifinals.And a lot of the players we've got here, they were part of that squad.They will want revenge, especially Lameen Yamal who was insane against Inter.He's gonna have to try and do it again.In fact, it's gonna be an important week for Barcelona on both fronts because Atletico Madrid away sandwiched between these Inter games.
That's a potential La Liga title decider.Inter starting this gameoff on the front foot, and Barcelona didn't expect that.And it's Chalonoglu who smashed the ball in.Guys, are Barcelona gonna bottle again in the Champions League?No, in the run.
It's 16, man.Come on.Look at the pace from Anthony Goran.He's charging forward.Bastani comes to him, but he goes away from him.Alvarez, surely.
No one's cleared off the line.No, our defense is getting exposed once again.It's 2 -0 Inter.Absolute disaster.off.Hansi Flick is making a bunch of changes because Barcelona need at least one goal to have a chance.
Adeyemi has been brought on especially for his pace.Can he make it count is the real question.He sees Balde making the run.Can Balde put this one back in?No.Lamin Yamal needs to look for the pass for Adeyemi.
Transcribe all your audio with Cockatoo
Get started freeIt's a perfect pass.Is he onside?I'm not sure.I think he is.Adeyemi gets the goal.Lamin created that out of nothing.
What a ball.Adeyemi as a super sub has been incredible as he looks for Julian Alvarez and Alvarez strikes.That's the difference.between Barcelona now and then.They do have a number 9 who can step up in the big moments.And with that, the first leg ends in a 2 -all draw.
I feel confident going to the camp now for the second leg.But first though, it's a title decider against Atletico.They're still somehow top of the league, but only by 2 points.But if we can beat them away from home here, Barcelona will be in prime position to win the league.But since we just had a big Champions League game midweek, quite a few changes in the line -up.Adeyemi has come in, which is deserved because he really saved us us against Inter.
Olmo starts.De Jong as well, Gerard Martin at the back.But of course, the entire talking point for this fixture, Julian Alvarez.In fact, Atleti fans before the game, they were burning shirts of Alvarez.He's going to have to endure a hostile atmosphere.Alvarez's first touch on the ball and he's getting booed like crazy.
Maybe that's why he made a mistake.Dani Olmo starting this game and he looks for Lamine Yamal.It's a lovely pass.Yamal's going to square it.Frankie De Jong with a big moment.I'm happy he scored because he had a really rough World Cup with the engine.
missed about four to five months of football, lost his starting place, but he's just helped his team out here with a big, big goal.Oh, Baldi misses this challenge, which puts Atleti in a good spot to score.They've crossed it in for Alex Faina.Joao Cancelo, good defending.And now Lamin Yamal is looking to exploit the pace of Karim Adeyemi.Back inside for Lamin.
Controls it.Oh, come on, Oblak.At 1 -0, we are dominating this game, but I don't want to take a chance.Because if Atleti get a draw from this game, it's going to be really hard to overcome them in La Liga.Trying to get the ball again to Lamin Yamal, who's in a place to put a cross.It's a lovely ball in.
Cutback for Dani Almo.The amount of times Lamin plays these kind of crosses in, it's actually insane.And it's a huge win for Barcelona in La Liga.We're back at the very top.And also the fact that we kept a clean sheet, that is something we're going to need against Inter Milan to try and knock them out.Now, unlike the game away in Italy, this time it was Barcelona on the front foot.
Lamine is already charging forward.He's up against Bastoni, but he's made him look silly.What a goal from Lamine!Inter now look to respond to that goal, but Juan Garcia was like a wall, letting nothing through.On the breakaway here, if we can get the second goal, After getting through that tough week, it really now feels like we've got the momentum.We've drawn Napoli in the quarterfinals.
And unlike the intertie, this was rather easy, especially with Lamin in form.And now it's time for the Copa del Rey final.And to be honest, Girona posed absolutely no threat.And also it was good to see Rafinha get on the scoresheet.Him being back in this crucial phase of the season could be key.But yes, we do end up lifting the Copa del Rey.
As things stand, we're on course for the treble.To be honest, even La Liga looks settled.We're nine points clear of Real Madrid.The only big worry we have is to try and get to that Champions League final, because we've got a big test ahead of us.Manchester City.Now City may not be
Guardiola, but they still have Erling Haaland, who is going to be dangerous as City have created a chance.Phil Foran strikes.Come on, man.This was not the start I was expecting.Without Pep, I thought we'd be dominating City.Okay, where's our defense?
And where's our defense?Literally, nobody was stopping Phil Foran.He's now 1v1 against Juan Garcia.Goes for the chip.Maldi saves the day, but another shot saved.We're almost clearing it away and Cherki misses.
Bro, Hansi Flick looks like he's about to cry.And oh man, look at the goal line technology.Balde, you legend!Unfortunately though, we do end up losing the first leg 1 -0 to City, but to be honest, it could have easily been 2 -0.We should be counting our stars that we didn't concede a second goal.Heading into this second leg, looks like it's a big change from Hansi Flick.
Anthony Gordon is back in the lineup.Maybe we rushed Rafinha too soon back into such a big fixture.Now we're back at the camp now and this tie is not over by any means.1 -0 is a scoreline which we can easily overcome.Just gotta avoid conceding first.But that's gonna be tough with Erling Haaland striking!
That's the worst possible start!City lead 2 -0!This is where things become a really uphill battle.Oh, but spaces have opened up for Min Lopez.He needs a passing option.It comes from Alvarez!
Donnarumma!Guys, don't forget, it's the Champions League that matters.Yes, we won Spanish Cup, we're probably gonna win La Liga, but it's the Champions League Barcelona are chasing for all these years.Um, guys?The referee gave a penalty for that?Where is VAR when we need it?
Because my goodness, man, that does not look like a penalty to me.What a dive from Firmin Lopez, but hey, you know what?I'll take it.But remember, guys, last time when we had a key penalty, Lamine missed.Hansi Flick is continuing to back him, and looks like he is going to take this penalty.Is he going to score, though, is the big question.

This is his chance to win us the game, and Firmin scores.No, no, no, we just took the lead, man.Juan Garcia, you legend.That save from Juan Garcia has just sent us to a Champions League final.Post -game, social media was trending wild with UEFA Lona chants.I mean, you had haters calling La Mina Mal the UEFA princess.
He responded to all this hate by posting a story.He does not care, bro.But what he does care about is winning his third La Liga.Barcelona with 85 points are at the top.Also, Julian Alvarez top scorer in La Liga, 27 goals.What a signing this has been.
In fact, it's been a ridiculous season for him.Look at the assists though from Lamin Yamal.16 and 24 goals.Pedri coming up with 20 assists.But all these individual accolades are good.The domestic trophies are great.
But in reality, it's that sixth Champions League that Barcelona are desperate for.Bayern Munich stand in their way.Also, big decision from Hansi Flick to play Anthony Gordon over Rafinha.He's just had way too many fitness issues.Maybe Rafinha will come off the bench.Lamin Yamal on the charger.
It's his first ever Champions League final, but he's not gonna feel the nerves.He's played in a World Cup final, and that is the composure he's got.Barcelona are one -nil up in the Champions League final.Well, Bayern are much more than Kane, because they've got the likes of Olise, who looks in for Musiala, and here goes Musiala.He's attracting defenders, and Kane finds space, and that is what we needed to avoid.in this Champions League final now.
Now this game has gotten really tight.57 minutes on the clock, it's still 1 -1.Oh, Pedri's made a good run, if he can control the ball, he can!Pedri with the chance, but he drags his shot wide.Hansi's reaction says it all.Cannot waste opportunities like that in a final against Bayern.
And now backs it against the wall, here's Olise, breaks through and scores!How has this happened?Time is now not on our side, Barcelona need to keep pushing.And Lavinia Malli's through on goal!Scores!That's it.
That's what we needed.But no, no, no, no, no.He's offside.This Barcelona team though never gives up.Julian Alvarez has to.Yes!
That's the goal we needed.Champions League goal keeps us alive.And now the momentum is completely shifted.Lamine Amal looking for a ball.Julian Alvarez, no man will know you.You're not supposed to do that.
And looks like this game is going to extra time.A lot of tired legs.That's why a lot of changes have been made.Adeyemi, Dani Olmo, Casado, they've all been brought on.Joao Cancelo as well.Lamina's broken through.
I see a run being made inside.Oh, the passing.Adeyemi!I was shocked at the extra pass Dani Olmo made there, but I guess it was the right call.Adeyemi's the one to give us the lead.And so it's done.
Almost an 11 -year -long wait.Barcelona have finally won the Champions League.Do you guys think this is possible for Barcelona this season in real life?I mean, they've got the team.But if you enjoyed this video, Click here to watch me manage Real Madrid with their new transfers.
