Looking at how the results came through today, Its safe to say home advantage nolonger carries the weight it had back then as compared to todays football
Just look at the stats,We had 6 out of 8 away match wins today which backs my theory am putting across, and if any punters are seeing this, home advantage should never be a basis for a team to win!
Anyway of all games played today, I Feel bad for Barcelona but the comeback started late on in the game, better luck next time boys!

Barca : Frankfurt 0:3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Barcelona has 76% ball possession but is currently losing 3-0 to Frankfurt. Crazy, right?
I can't believe what happened, how is it possible that Barcelona, who is at the top, can be beaten by Frankfurt. It's a crazy, I'm very disappointed
with Barcelona's performance. Frankfurt were absolutely amazing, they played really well. Frankfurt players are very fast in attack, only 25% of
the ball but being able to shoot 15 times is a very good thing. No wonder Frankfurt was able to win 3 goals first, it's a shame that Barcelona could only
score two goals in the last minute of the match. Barcelona had to be eliminated very painfully, I didn't expect Barcelona to be knocked out by Frankfurt,
congratulations to Frankfurt for qualifying for the semifinals.

What a great game to watch. I would guess that 95% percent of all football fans expected that it will be a pretty easy match for Barcelona today and that they will surely go through to the next round. Eintracht Frankfurt has proven before though that they are always capable of winning against big teams in the european cups. Back in 2019 they also reached the semi final in the Europa League and then they even managed to reach the penalty shootout against the huge favorite FC Chelsea. So i knew before that Frankfurt has a chance but of course i also expected Frankfurt to go through.
And of course Frankfurt has one of the best fan groups in the world. To bring 30000 fans to an away game that is more than 1000 km away is just absolutely crazy and unique.
90+11' Memphis penalty scored. Barcelona 2-3 Frankfurt
A painful loss at home ends Barca's European adventure, and the club's best chance at a trophy this season is over. Goodbye, Barcelona. I know you broke a lot of hearts tonight.

I don't think this was what the game plan was all about for Barcelona, two goals down in the first half and they expect Frankfurt to just throw away this lead here....not happening!
We all know the fate of Barcelona and its a crap for them because Frankfurt keep showcasing some good football.
I do honestly don't expect it could happened. An unfortunate game for Barcelona, though they play shamefully in this match. Turns out that Frankfurt is the team that could break Xaviball. Quite irritating play from Barcelona, if I might say. The early absurd foul by Garcia, and the early misses in the second half by Auba. And with such gameplay, the away team is way deserved enough to take the win. We all know the fate of Barcelona and its a crap for them because Frankfurt keep showcasing some good football.
What a shame, completely outplayed by mediacore Bundesliga team at home. We had ball posession, but what's the point of it when opponent is more dangerous in attack. I think that absense of Alves in Europa league is huge factor for Barca.
Lyon 0:3 West Ham. It was difficult to expect such outcome. Can't say anything about game without watching it, but it's impressive stuff from Hammers.
Rangers 2:1 Braga and we are in Extra time. After such powerful start, I thought that Rangers will solve all questions without any problems, especially after Braga red card. Braga looked very poor for most part of game, but somehow they managed to score and send game to extra time.

Barcelona - Frankfurt game is just amazing right now. Frankfurt have showed an incredible performance so far and Barcelona haven't been that much impressive. However, Barcelona have just scored a penalty and decreased the goal difference to only one (2-3). And Frankfurt are playing with ten players from now on. But we are in the last moments and there is a very limited period of time for Barcelona to score the equalizer. And while I was writing this post, the game ended by this score. Frankfurt got a completely deserved win and they are in the semi finals!
Frankfurt deserved to win today and I think it was the result of their hard work during the game. Solid defense and taking advantage of the opportunities well made them win the match.Barcelona was very frustrated throughout the game because of Frankfurt's solid defense, here I don't really like the strategy of stacking more than 7 players at the back, but against Barcelona it was a very effective way. So I have to say Barcelona's failure today in the Europa League has cost them their title chances this season. Congratulations to Frankfurt.
Barca : Frankfurt 0:3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL, I can't even believe this but it's a fact that happened. Barcelona even managed to score 2 goals in the 91' and 90+11' minutes. I'm a little lucky not to place a bet on this match, if not then I'll be unlucky like other bettors lol. 
Farewell Barcelona. That was the most shocking result, as worst as seeing Bayern being kicked from CL! BTW is there some Barca fans / staff that sold their tickets to their rivals?
Leipzig won earlier vs Atalanta which I find interesting. West Ham made it too. Meanwhile Rangers and Braga will continue additional time.

Good results from Frankfurt, who win away at Camp Nou and proceed to the semi finals of the europa league. Other Semfinalist are WestHam, Leicester, while Braga and Rangers are playing extra 30 minutes to find a winner. Aggregrate score is 2-2 as 10 men Braga holds on against Rangers

Well, I can only laugh at the result of the Barcelona match against Frankfurt. Barcelona have tried everything to score goals, but they are difficult to create chances. It would be very surprising of course because Frankfurt is actually not seeded. Too cool to attack makes Barcelona not focus on defense so they are left behind by the third goal. Well in the end I had to be satisfied with the result even though it was very disappointing.
It's unbelievable what's going on in Barcelona right now. Frankfurt leads 1-3 and it is only 5 minutes to play football.
The VAR ruled Busquets offside in 84', so no Barça goal.
But Busquets fires a beauty once more in 90 + 1 '. No ruling out this one!

I don't know what's wrong with Barcelona today, they are playing with all the key players and it is at home. Barcelona should be better than Frankfurt, they have better players and they are on fire. What Barcelona shows in this match is like an anticlimax or a huge drop in performance after they always won in the last many matches. So poor for Barcelona fans, they must dream of a trophy in this competition.
Barcelona is in shock. They conceded 3 goals, this is not acceptable. Nobody expected such a score at Camp Nou. They scored a goal in last minutes, but Busquets was offside, the goal was disallowed. It's almost over now. Barcelona either didn't care enough about this trophy or didn't really show a full performance. West Ham United now seem to be the favorites for this trophy.
a few more minutes and there are no more barcelona fans in the stadium. they all run sadly home.
you can only hear the frankfurt fans. but even before that the fans from frankfurt were much louder than the barca fans.
what a fantastic football night !

It is 0-3 in the Barcelona - Frankfurt game now and we are in the last ten minutes of the game also. Barcelona had one of their poorest games in this season that's for certain. Frankfurt totally deserved to eliminated their opponent and congratulations to them. I appreciate their amazing effort in this game especially. Defeating Barcelona in Camp Nou must be very satisfying for them. Barcelona were already not very eager to win the Europa League title hence I don't think that they are disappointed that much now.
Frankfurt put in a very good performance at the Camp Nou, maybe many people thought that Frankfurt would come out as losers, but they proved it all now. Filip Kostic and Maury were heroes for Frankfurt today, after this maybe Barcelona can focus more on chasing the La Liga title like Bayern Munich did after losing to Villarreal.
0-3 standings. But it is also almost the final score. There was still a very small hope when the 1-3 was made, but that turned out not to be the case with the VAR. This is a big letdown for Barcelona. Competition not a champion, all hopes were actually pinned on the Europa League. That must hurt that they are now getting a beating at home from Eintracht Frankfurt. I really have no idea now who the top favorite is to win the Europa League, Frankfurt normally not, even though they have won here now.

It's unbelievable what's going on in Barcelona right now. Frankfurt leads 1-3 and it is only 5 minutes to play football. No one could have predicted that. barcelona has been in very good shape lately and frankfurt, on the other hand, is not a top team, not even in germany. Anyway, there is still some time and stoppage time, so Barcelona still have 10 minutes to score 2 goals. it is not impossible but then that 2-3 will have to fall very quickly.
