The FC Barcelona could not happen of the tie in front of the Inter of Milan and his pass to the eighth of final depends on an absolute miracle. The group directed by Xavi Hernández had the obligation to go out of the Spotify Camp Nou with the three points in the 'pocket' this Wednesday and showed this urgency in the first part. Nevertheless, when returning of the rest the performance of the team fell in 'hammered' and, in spite of achieving the equality 'in extremis', his continuity in the UEFA Champions League is extremely committed.

In this sense, the main cause of the 'varapalo' received in front of the 'neroazzurri' was the low defensive level showed, especially, in the second half. Monumental errors like the one of Gerard Hammered in the first goal of the transalpinos and failures in the retaguardia like the one of Eric García in the so much of Lautaro Martínez punished in demasía to the blaugranas, those who besides suffered each one of the counterattacks made by the directed by Simone Inzaghi, that knew to take advantage of this phase of the game for 'strike' to the Catalans.

Nevertheless, the result of the party could have been a lot worse for the barcelonistas of not being by a new stellar performance of Marc-André Ter Stegen. The guardameta has been the best player of the team in the last parties and in front of 'Il Biscione' went back to put the suit of 'superhéroe' to avoid the definite catastrophe that had finished with the Barça deleted of the maximum competition of clubs of the continent and classifying once again to the Europe League. Until three cut across of merit were made by the germano, whose presence was key in the tie.

And it is that the Italians caused an incommensurable damage to the Barcelona to the against, resource by means of which exploded all the deficiencies of the team of Xavi. Like this, Marc-André avoided the goal of the triumph for the dresses of white when detaining with the foot a hand manually in front of Asllani in the 95', the one who saw intimidated by the German and could not put the chamber so much in the marker. Likewise, the goalkeeper detained a poisonous head butt in the last minute of Gosens that could have been the one of the defeat for the culés.

The door fallen in Champions

In spite of the big performances of the Teutonic, the Barça has not been able to leave the door in zero in the present edition of the League of Champions. Although Ter Stegen has had little and at all of fault in the so many received by the Catalans, the guardameta has fit seven targets in the European competition. This figure moves away and a lot of the performance of the team in LaLiga Santander, where the one of Monchengladbach only has received 1 goal and has kept his goal in zero along 624 minutes.
