The anticipated battle for revenge is about to begin!
The first round of the Champions League quarter-finals, Barcelona's home game against Paris Saint-Germain is about to begin. It is difficult to conclude which is strong and weak, but Mbappe and Messi's positive and tough are definitely worth looking forward to. One is a rising star of the future, and the other is one of the strongest kings in the past two decades. Is it the domineering young man who dominates the stage, or is the boss Mei, who is still in style, the same as that of the past?
The 6-1 shocking reversal of that year was still haunting my heart. In fact, four years have passed.
Messi, Neymar, Suarez, Iniesta, Roberto, Umtiti, Busquets, Rakitic, most of the Barcelona team are no longer in the team.
Neymar, who scored 2 goals alone, has already moved to Paris, but unfortunately he couldn't play in tonight's game due to injury. Iniesta traveled to Japan, continued his career in the Kobe Victory Ship, and performed well in the AFC Champions League. Last year also had a clash with the Super League team. Suarez was swept out and was forced to come to Atletico Madrid. Now he is playing well and scoring continuously, helping Atletico hold the top spot in La Liga. Messi, who has lost Suarez and Neymar, is still the core of Barcelona, but it gradually feels weak. In the Copa del Rey last week, Barcelona lost 0-2 to Sevilla. It is quite difficult to advance to the next round.
Fortunately, in the last round of La Liga, Barcelona beat Alaves 5-1. Messi recovered his form, and two beautiful long shots made his opponents convinced. At present, the points difference between Barcelona and the top Atletico Madrid is as much as 8 points, and one more game, it is very difficult to win the La Liga championship.
Grand Paris's lineup has also changed a lot. Cavani, the main striker of the year, has joined Manchester United and is rejuvenated. In that game that was reversed, Cavani scored a goal, and another shot was blocked by the goal post, and another key single shot failed to be scored and was blocked by Ter Stegen with his foot. Cavani killed the game a long time ago, and this has become Cavani's eternal pain.
tonight’s game,It is a pity that Neymar and Di Maria of Paris can not play. Neymar is injured and missed the clash with the old owner Barcelona, which is very regrettable. Neymar played very badly in Paris and has been rumored with Barcelona. Di Maria will not be able to play recently because of a transfer.
Although these two pillars are missing, Greater Paris still has Mbappé and Icardi.
For Mbappé to become a superstar, he must perform convincingly in the club. A decisive battle against Barcelona and leading the team will be his best performance opportunity. The more the battle, the better Mbappé's state. This is very exciting. Another striker Icardi is also eager to try, eager to fight Barcelona to the death.
is in good condition. Verrati and Paredes must be careful, and get a yellow card, and the two sides will be suspended for the second round.
Paris Saint-Germain played in the final of the Champions League last year, and finally lost to Bayern Munich, finishing runner-up and missing the championship. This is also the best result of Paris in the Champions League. With a comeback this year, it is natural not to fall at the feet of Barcelona. From the perspective of league results, Paris has 17 wins, 3 draws, 5 losses and 54 points, ranking second behind the 55-point Lille team. Judging from the record, Paris has a lot of losses, which seems a bit unstable. Lille, ranked top, has only lost two games. From the point of view of the number of goals, Paris still has the dominant power. 57 goals are still the top of the Ligue 1, and the number of goals conceded is the same as Lille's 15. The defense is very good. I believe that in the second half of the season, Greater Paris will still exert its strength and will not give up on the Ligue 1 champions.
However, what they value most at the moment is the Champions League. This time, they must cross the barrier of Barcelona. Only by defeating Barcelona will the shameful battle four years ago be over.
So will Barcelona make Paris do it? Will Messi agree?
