The one who formed part of the 'staff' technical of the FC Barcelona during the stage of Luis Enrique in the bench culé, Robert Moreno, has conceded an interview in which it has recognised that it did not trust the traced back Barcelona against Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, at least when in the minute 88 the marker was in 4-1 in favour of the culés and did fault two goals to attain the classification.

"I was in the terracings during the party, but with the 4-1 in the minute 88 thought that it had finish all, so I went back to the changing room. Then I listened the fifth and the sixth goal, so I went out quickly to the field. It was something incredible", rememora Robert Moreno, at present first trainer of the ACE Monaco after a fleeting step like interim technician of the Spanish Selection.

"It is difficult for the PSG, because it did not think to fit this result after a 4-0.

Lamentably, that classification for chambers of Champions League did not serve of at all. The Barça of Luis Enrique went back to trust and carried a 3-0 against the Juventus of Turín in Italian earths. In the turn, in the Camp Nou, the marker did not move and the 'bianconeri' advanced to semifinals.
