Luis Suárez had fixed the victory.
Lionel Messi got the chance to decide a double session from the penalty spot in the final seconds – but missed both the penalty and the open goal on the rebound.
– The important thing is the victory, says Luis Suárez in Viasat.
Last year, Manchester City their first playoff game in the Champions League and had to face Barcelona at your convenience.
The English were no chance of a double session which ended in a 4-1 victory for the Spaniards.
Now they meet again before the game was Manchester City clear that they were better prepared this year.
– We will not be afraid, said Nasri before the game.
But the fearless unit did not help at all. The entire first half was about to Barcelona – and especially Luis Suárez.
cross coming behind 2-0
On his return to the British Isles needed Uruguayan just 16 minutes before he took advantage of a mistake from the City captain Vincent Kompany and made the 1-0.
– It must not go to so easily, they are so important they yonder objectives, stated Glenn when he saw Kompanys carelessness.
Just fifteen minutes later 2-0 on a cross coming. Messi dribbled forward, passed the ball Jordi Alba who found Luis Suárez that could bump the ball into an open goal.
– I am very pleased to be able to help the team. The most important thing is that we win, says Suárez.
Messi missed an open goal
Sergio Aguero still gave City a little hope to challenge the double session as he elegantly pressed into the 1-2 goal after 69 minutes.
But at the last moment saw double session out to be settled for good. Pablo Zabaleta tore down Lionel Messi in the penalty area and Argentine stepped up to put 3-1. But Hart guessed right and took the penalty, and when the ball bounced out to Messi’s forehead, he managed the bar throughout the open goal.
– The penalties are one
Hart became something of a hero despite the loss, and he thinks the second half bodes well for the return .
– We are disappointed the first half but in the second half, we feel we can compete with these guys, he says in Viasat.
Luis Enrique was of course also satisfied:
– In advance I’d like to take this result. We can be proud of this. The first half was amazing, he says.
