Barca : Frankfurt 0:3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell am I just seeing on my screen??!!! Grin

Outclassed, out gunned, out played. Barcelona players just wish the match just ended right now.

Barcelona has 76% ball possession but is currently losing 3-0 to Frankfurt. Crazy, right?

Of which they have only 4-5 attempts. Frankfurt has over 15 attempts, and it could have easily been 5 or 6 goals.

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 eliminate 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.

There is still time to correct the situation. It only takes two goals to go into extra time and start over. But the fact is that those who praised Barcelona (unreasonably) are now very shocked and it's good if this is simple surprise and not regret about the bets made Roll Eyes

It's a pity that Leipzig won against the backdrop of a referee error, but I would say that they deserved to win.

Barcelona had most of the ball possession in the first half with Frankfurt having just 31% of the first half ball possession, but Frankfurt had 5 shots on target while Barcelona had only 1 which is indicating how Barcelona strikers are not playing that good, second half can change but yet Frankfurt is having upper hand right now, I was thinking the match would favour Barcelona but it is going in the direction I wasn't predicting to happen.

It's not the attackers' problem. This is a problem with the outdated Tiki Taka tactics that Xavi is resurrecting. If you look at Barcelona's golden years (when Xavi himself played), you will see many of these matches where Barcelona supposedly had a huge advantage but the opponents played disciplined defensively and won (while having better shot stats).
By the way 0-3 and Barcelona this season remains without titles

This is the worst time for Barcelona to have a sleep up, they have had good run of game prior to this game against Frankfurt, and now they are down by three unreplied goals. From the looks of things Barcelona are out of this one, it is really a shame that Barcelona can get knocked out of the Europa league, although this would give them more opportunity to focus more on the Spanish LaLiga now that they are are out of European competition except a miracle happens.

Great job Frankfurt. They are through to the Europa League Semi Final. For Barca to make a comeback at this stage is close to impossible.

Brotherhood is love

What a good night for English Premier league fans and Westham fans. The atmosphere is bright and lovely as Antonio, Bowen and others are doing the great work. I so much tip Westham to lift the Europa League. Especially now that Barcelona are gradually falling out of the europa league.

For Frankfurt vs Barcelona, I can say that Barcelona was disstablized after the early penalty kick that resulted to goal. I believe that Barcelona may likely come back if they keep pressuring and xavi make nice decisions.

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.

Meanwhile in France Westham is having an easier game with their 3 nil lead which should also seem them cross to the next stage,I guess these guys fancy their chance to pick this trophy if they put their heads into the game and am backing them for this one.

It looks like it is the end of the road for Barcelona in the Europa League. Because we are nearly at the end of the first half now and they are 0-2 behind Eintracht Frankfurt. Frankfurt are playing just as the first game and this is helping them a great deal. This time, they are not that clumsy about finishing up their attacks with goals. I don't know whether Barcelona can turn the game around at this point. They don't seem like they care about it so Frankfurt are very likely to advance.

It was very confusing, I saw that Barcelona dominated the game with their possession, but it was Frankfurt who attacked more. I also don't think that Barcelona can turn things around like they did to PSG in the Champions League, it seems true that this will be their last game in UEL this season.

the barcelona fans in the fan curve have left the seats. they are offended because so many frankfurt fans got tickets for today's match.
but right now barcelona needs its fans .barcelona now needs to score 3 more goals to advance to the next round . but barcelona still has
35 minutes to score those 3 goals ! this is going to be a very interesting 35 minutes.

this is really unexpected, Frankfurt managed to excel in the early minutes. they are now only playing defensively and Barcelona continue to look for gaps to penetrate Frankfurt's very strong defense. Barcelona have 65% ball position and if Barcelona continue to attack like this they will probably be able to get back but in situations like this anything is still possible.
I hope no more surprises happen and Barcelona can win the game.

The first half is over now and the result is beyond everyone's prediction, Frankfurt are 2 goals ahead and Aggregar are 1-3 for now.
Is there really any other surprise apart from Bayern being eliminated in the UCL. Barcelona are in control of the game now but they are still having a hard time taking chances as Auba, Dembele and Ferra are now struggling to deal with marking from Frankfurt's players.

The efforts of the Frankfurt players deserve a thumbs up. They came as guests, but they could make the most of the opportunities they had. Barcelona is indeed more dominating the game but they don't really have a good chance to be a goal, while Frankfurt has a very good counter-attack. If in the second half, Barcelona still cannot improve, then Frankfurt will be the winner.

Sadly, Barcelona has found it difficult to turn their possesion play to goals and Frankfurt has just got a second goal via a Borre R. strike, it is looking increasingly difficult for Barcelona to proceed to the next round of the competition. The big question is, can Barcelona overturn this 2 goal disadvantage? Theres 45 minutes of play to find out

It is a truly horrible performance from Barcelona in the first half. I think this will be the test for Xaviball to turn around the game. In another hand, Looking at La Liga they are hardly catching up with Madrid points, they won't let this championship getting away. The thing is I'm sure that Barcelona will completely revamp the second half strategy.

Barcelona vs Frankfurt now only started 10 minutes but interestingly now Frankfurt took the lead pretty quickly due to a foul by Erick Garcia in the 4th minute which was converted into a goal there through Filip Kostic's penalty.
Now Barcelona have to be extra in attack because with this 1 goal advantage Frankfurt might prioritize defense now because with the existing advantages I don't think there is any reason to keep playing open

Barcelona look really lost and uncomfortable at the back, both Mingueza and Garcia seemed to have altered the chemistry of the team in this game a lot, offering next to nothing in attack and always out of position when defending, Mingueza and Garcia were not were to be found in the build up to the second, even though it was both players position to be covered, I don't Araujo could have done more, and Stegen was caught helpless by the brilliant strike.

I'm not specifically optimistic here looking at the 1st half, but let's see what the 2nd half holds.

So far Frankfurt lead and have created the most goal attempts in the game (4), albeit via counter attacks, while Barcelona with 71% ball possession cannot do more with it aside pass across the pitch. With half time approaching, Barcelona need to turn their possession to chances, and chances to goals before Frankfurt turn the game around. Theres 15 more minutes to play before half time.

Yes, Barcelona are 1 goal down from the start because of the penalty but I am not worried so far because the game is still quite long. Actually Auba had a good chance, but his header was still high. Frankfurt have looked really good in defense so far and it has been a problem for Barcelona to score. But I think very soon Barcelona will score in this match.

Sadly, Barcelona has found it difficult to turn their possesion play to goals and Frankfurt has just got a second goal via a Borre R. strike, it is looking increasingly difficult for Barcelona to proceed to the next round of the competition.

Also why is no one mentioning WestHam and Declan Rice superb strike to give WestHam a 2goal advantage over Lyon at halftime, As it stands, westham are also oncourse to get to the semifinal stage of the europa league

Getting a penalty especially in the early minutes is not something that barcelona expected, this temporary advantage of 1 goal puts Frankfurt ahead and I hope they can maintain that advantage at least until the first half ends later, so far Barcelona continue to attack and pressing the defense several times frankfurt with a dangerous attack to frankfurt goal, while Frankfurt who are 1 goal ahead are currently also pressing Barcelona with quick counter attacks.
At the time I wrote this post, frankfurt managed to score one more goal and put them ahead for a while with a score of 0-2.

Strengthen the defense and counterattack even if you don't have much possession. It sucks of course, Frankfurt shouldn't have won a match like this, but come on it's still not over. Of course after Frankfurt are 2 goals ahead then they will now focus more on defense and not let Barcelona create chances. But let's see what will happen in the second half because the first half is almost over.

It's very difficult for Frankfurt to win against Barcelona, I think it's impossible especially since this match will be played at Barcelona.
Barcelona's performance lately has been extraordinary, they have improved a lot after being managed by coach xavi, in terms of quality Frankfurt lost badly to Barcelona as well as in this match, I think there is no hope for Frankfurt to win.

Unbelievable what is happening here. Barcelona plays and plays, but comes to nothing. Only 2 shots the the goal. And Frankfurt already has 7 shots on goal and 2 goals, unbelievable. It looks more like it will soon be 3:0. Maybe there will be a red card for Barca and a new record for Frankfurt? Omg.
