Galatasaray started the game very well against Barcelona at home with full spectators. Galatasaray could not establish dominance after scoring the goal. There is a disadvantage here. Barca dominated towards the end of the game and passed the last sixteen. Galatasaray, played an enjoyable match against Barca despite playing bad football in the league. I think Sevilla will be the side that passes the last sixteen in the West Ham-Sevilla match. The Lyon-Porto match started fast. A game with high viewing pleasure awaits us. The game dominance is in favor of Lyon so far and they are playing good football. Lyon will pass the last sixteen.
I kind of expected more from Barcelona today following there recent performance in there domestic Laliga and somehow, they disappointed me, having a difficult time in making out the goals. The most important is the fact that they win and even got to win by a come back but, it wasn't so interesting for me after all. Anyway, Barca got to advance as expected and that's the most important.
Atalanta got to battle the Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen and managed it to make out a goal which is all they needed to go to the next round. Another game I think we could watch out for would be Sevilla Vs West Ham United and I don't see West Ham United having pretty much a good chance.

Barcelona beat Galatasaray with great difficulty, although most forecasters predicted an easy big win here. On shots on target, Barcelona have a minimal advantage - 3:4, although, as always, huge in possession of the ball. For me, this is evidence of inefficiency. I think in the upcoming Clasico Real Madrid will show what the “strengthening” of Barcelona is worth.
Barcelona 2 - 1 Galatasaray
barcelona is back to being the same barcelona as it was a few months ago, from what I can see there is still a lot of work to do in barcelona
Atalanta 1 - 0 Leverkusen
Atalanta won, it's unbelievable that they managed to move to another phase

The most disappointing today was the Monaco lose, they cant catch in the score Braga in any moment.
I think in home Monaco can made so more and turn the serie in his favor , but Braga punch first and GG.
The best games are now.

In my opinion, not only did Monaco disappoint in the second leg, but Leverkusen also played badly in the second leg. After the first leg Leverkusen
played well enough to make it difficult for Atalanta by scoring two goals. But when playing in the second leg Leverkusen players did not manage
to score a single goal, even though Leverkusen dominated the match, and also Leverkusen created more chances than Atalanta. But in the 91st
minute, Leverkusen conceded by Atalanta and finally made Leverkusen eliminated from the Europa League competition. For the West Ham vs Sevilla
match currently underway, we'll see if West Ham can avenge their defeat in the first leg. Because the match has just entered the 25th minute and
the score is still 0-0, so the opportunity for both teams is still open.

That was a good result from Barcelona. It seemed to be exciting because they played 0-0 in Barcelona. This team is good, even if Galatasaray is not a great team of course. It could also have gone wrong, but lately Barcelona has been in a great flow and they continue to maintain that line well in this way. Barcelona is one of the favorites for me to win the title, they could use that success. The new pairing will be very excited to see!
Last several match, Barcelona did really well. Still now, they have some mistakes and they need to fix quickly. In any match, opponent is opponent and there is no chance to think that 1 team will win always. Barcelona need a world class forward very urgently.

You know that you cant really expect much from Monaco especially when they lose by 2 goals on the 1st leg. That totally show you that Braga is much better than Monaco and also the fact that Braga scored the 1st goals means Monaco need to score 4 goals to actually win the game so it kinda demoralize the players for sure because chances are pretty slim already

The second half ended with a defensive strategy from Barcelona to take safe action. Well, improvements continue to be made by Barcelona, now Galatasaray lost for the first time and it was awarded by Aubameyang. He became a new el Clasico star who was right at Barcelona rather than at Arsenal. The banishment left Aubameyang with a home for him to shine through.

The reason why Barcelona has to play in the Europa League this year is pretty simple, they just were not strong enough to advance into the play-off stage of the Champions League. The reason why they are not so strong anymore is also quite simple, they threw hundreds and hundreds of millions basically out of the window just to make messi stay at Barca. Reports say that messi earned 555 Million Euros from 2017 to 2021 at Barca which are 111 Million € per season which is absolutely insane. Then covid came and the income from the tickets sale were missing and everything fell apart. Now they have 1,3 Billion € of debts, so Barca fans should get used to seeing their club playing in the Europa League in the next few years.
Are you sure about that? The success of a team including Barcelona cannot be measured only because of the money factor. See how Manchester City, PSG and many other rich teams in Europe also failed to win the Champions League. It's not always about money though good financial conditions can help a team have top players which allows them to have a good performing team.Barcelona is in the Champions League almost every season regardless of whether they make it or not reach the final. This season's failure to reach the last 16 is due to poor performance and the lack of player slots they have due to injury. Messi's departure had a big impact on Barcelona but it must be forgotten soon because regeneration is always needed.
I heard Spotify has reached an agreement with Barcelona to be the main sponsor from next season. The investment from this Swedish company will boost the team's finances to further improve the quality of the team next season. Don't hesitate to say that Barcelona are still a contender in Laliga and also the Champions League despite their failings this season, that makes more sense than underestimates it. Anyway, I'm happy that Barcelona have finally qualified for the quarter-finals this season.
I watched the Galatasaray - Barcelona game and it was delightful I think. And I think that Galatasaray resisted Barcelona much better than Napoli. When I saw that Galatasaray scored first, I really started thinking about the possibility of their advancing to next round. But Barcelona didn't let their dream last a long time. They turned the game around and won it by 2-1 as well. But Galatasaray really fought for eliminating their opponent which is an effort to be appreciated.
In today's Europa League match my attention is on 2 matches Galatasaray vs Barcelona and Bayer Leverkusen vs Atalanta
In the first leg Barcelona without surprises only drew despite playing at home now the second leg I'm sure they still have hope
For Leverkusen vs Atalanta I am more interested in total goals and Both teams to score as we saw in the first leg 5 goals in total pretty sure both teams repeat it.

I really wonder if this time Galatasaray will be lucky again to make a draw or even beat Barca. barca's performance has also improved greatly in the last few matches, here I am very sure that barca will win, the line-up has been circulated, can't wait to see this match start.
As you guessed Barcelona won despite conceding first , it turns out that Barcelona still has a strong mentality they managed to get out of the pressure until comeback 1-2 struggle is not in vain. Slightly disappointed in other matches Bayer Leverkusen didn't score , damn only one goal even though in the first leg 5 goals turns out both teams are playing defensively.

Watching Barcelona play in the europa league is something I have never imagined that they would feature , but since they are in it they need to up their game and show us the fire power they have before the get embarrased by these so called smaller teams....
So far Galatasaray 1-2 Barcelona
Having hard moments vs Galatasaray is embarrassing for Barcelona fans tho. They were 1 goal behind before returning to the game and scoring 2..So far Galatasaray 1-2 Barcelona
In the other games, Braga and Rangers obviously passed to the next stage. Leverkusen wasn't able to score and Atalanta scored and passed too. Harder games coming soon

Galatasaray vs Barcelona
The match between Galatasaray and Barcelona has started. And 10 minutes of the match time is over. In these 10 minutes, Galatasara made 4 shots, 2 of which were on target. Barcelona has not attacked well yet. They are keeping the ball in their possession. Ball possession Barcelona 80% and Galatasaray is only 20%. If Galatasaray playing aggressively in this match would be a big mistake. Because the Barcelona forward has the ability to score goals with a strong counterattack. I am expecting Barcelona to win this match. Let's see how Barcelona plays today. But the match seems to be enjoyable.

The first goal of the match was scored by Marcao, who gave the team the lead in Galatasaray. Galatasaray should have played its defensive game after that. But they wanted to score more and Ebong continued the attack. The first half ended in a 1-1 draw, but now Barcelona are 2-1 up. Torres made an assist. And Aubameyang scored. Barcelona is dominating the match. Their gameplay and match strategy is excellent.

So far Galatasaray 1-2 Barcelona
I didn't watch the first half but I think the stats are superior to Barcelona. Based on some reviews that I have seen, it seems that the first half of Barcelona was really disturbed by Galatasaray's fast attack even though Barcelona closed the first half with a draw.So far Galatasaray 1-2 Barcelona
So far the second half Barcelona have been better in terms of ball dominance and so far they are also 2 goals clear of Galatasaray with Aubameyang scoring his second goal in 4 European league match. Nonetheless I think substitutions are needed at the moment to maintain the lead and also possibly to add to the lead. Barcelona can still see the score in the last 10 minutes of this match.
Bookmakers are giving very high odds on Galatasaray passing 4.5... So far, the game looks without any clear advantage for either team... Only pity Obameyang couldn't score in the last minute of the first half! I think the second half will be even more interesting... I also expect Sevilla's humiliation in England today! I hope West Ham will show what they can do!
The first half match was dominated by Barcelona with 69% ball possession. Galatasaray have only capitalized on counter-attacking opportunities and set pieces so far that gave them the lead minutes before Pedri scored.As you can see, Aubameyang and De Jong had good chances so far to score in the first half but both missed. Only Pedri actually managed to do it after his first attempt failed because it was not on target. The second half will be very interesting and I hope Barcelona can beat Galatasaray in this match with a win over 2 goals. That's possible in my opinion.
Braga is also having in next round after winning first phase and now have lead in this second which means if Monaco wants to qualify then surely they require 4 goals which is not easy for any team in just time of 30 minutes. Leverkusen vs Atlanta is having no action as both teams playing with strong defense not allowing opponent for any action from here most chances we will have Barcelona, Atlanta Braga and Rangers into next round.

Barcelona is also having good control on the game, but it's very long way to go for both teams as Galagarasary already have some confidence after winning derby against Basiktas.
Edit2: What a start for Galatasaray they take early lead against Barcelona now we are going to have rain of goals in this match.
2 goals within 9 minutes and it's 1-1 now. The match is very interesting and both teams show their strength. Pedri did bring a confidence back to Barcelona but the match is still opened for both. What team will score a decisive goal to win eventually?Edit2: What a start for Galatasaray they take early lead against Barcelona now we are going to have rain of goals in this match.
It's going to be a tough match for both like in the first leg. It looks like any team win from this match will not get it easily. Because opponent knows how to bring difficulty to another. Galatasary has their home stadium and they will have more support from it while Barcelona do have their motivation to win and move toward the Europa League trophy. It will help them to not only win a trophy but also place a spot in Champions League.
Barcelona have taken the lead just after the break, with a goal from Aubameyang, there is nothing the keeper could have done, having saved two of the initial attempts.
Messi is not happy in Paris so will he return to Barcelona after one season forced to leave? Come back and play in Champions League with Barcelona will bring more happiness to him and his family.
It is definitely not going to happen, neither would any Barcelona in their right frame of mind would want that, we are getting prepared for a new generation of players and the post-Messi era, why alt progress being made so far ?
