Calendar of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona sealed the 5-0 win over Young Boys with an own goal from centre-back Mohamed Camara. The Guinean defender deflected a cross from Alejandro Balde from the side in the 81st minute that ended up in the back of his net, surprising goalkeeper Marvin Keller. It was the end of another terrifying day for the weak Swiss team, bottom of the league phase of the UEFA Champions League with 8 goals conceded in two games.

Camara's own goal was historic for Barça, as it allowed them to remain alone in second place in the table of clubs with the most own goals scored in the history of the tournament. In total, the Catalans have benefited from 18 own goals in the Champions League, 1 more than Bayern Munich (17). Only Real Madrid (19) surpasses the Blaugrana team in this curious section.

For the moment, 'merengues', culés and bávaros remain at the top of the historical table of the tournament. Madrid is the leader with 372 points in 260 games, with 2 points more than Barça (370 in 260 matches played). Both Spanish clubs have accumulated 25 seasons in the top European competition, while Bayern has 345 points in 255 games after 24 campaigns.

The Young Boys coach, surrendered to the superiority of the culé

After the match, Patrick Rahmen, coach of the Young Boys, recognized the overwhelming superiority of the blaugrana from start to finish. "Barça pressed hard during the 90 minutes and it was very difficult for us to maintain possession. It was an absolutely deserved rout," said the Swiss coach, who also regretted not having been able to keep a clean sheet for longer to, perhaps, have taken a less bulky result. In the next round, the Boys will host Inter Milan, who beat Red Star (4-0) on Tuesday.
