The result of the Barcelona-Eintracht Frankfurt match: Barcelona was eliminated from the European League after German fans invaded the Camp Nou stadium.




An utterly disastrous display in the camp saw Barcelona thrown out of Europe by Eintracht Frankfurt. Philip Kosteke's double aimed at qualifying the German team for the semi-finals of the European League with a convincing 3-2 victory at the famous Catalan stadium, which witnessed the visiting team's victory over Barcelona 4-3 on aggregate.

Barcelona captured 75% throughout the process but did not generate good chances as the total shots were only 10 per game against 15 for Frankfurt, most of them coming in the last minutes as the hosts suffered a late miracle. The few chances Barcelona created were fun, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang squandering the biggest opportunity after the break.

Kostik opened the scoring with a penalty in the fourth minute after a foul by Eric Garcia, and there was little reaction from Barcelona. Raphael Bury's superb goal put the Germans 2-0 ahead before the break, and would double it after the first half. Kostik scored his second goal from open play an hour later, closing the door on Barcelona's European hopes.

Sergio Busquets scored a consoling goal at the start of extra time with a powerful shot that deserved the best result of the match, but wasted in an easy-to-forget performance. A penalty kick converted by Memphis Depay ended the final 3-2 in the return leg.

The story of the match, apart from Frankfurt's devastating attack and quiet defense, was the story of the 30,000 Frankfurt fans who were rumored to have made the trip, painting the Camp Nou white.

Full time: Barcelona 2-3 Eintracht Frankfurt

The whistle blew at the beginning of the second half and Barcelona were eliminated from the European League 4-3 on aggregate.

It is a famous victory for the German national team in one of the most famous stadiums in the world, where Barcelona's quest to win the first European League ended. The disastrous performance of the hosts led to a shocking outcome as 30,000 Frankfurt fans reportedly turned out to watch the action at the Camp Nou.




90 + 10 min: goal, Barcelona! What bad luck for Frankfurt! Trapp saves a Memphis Depay penalty, but the ball crosses the bar and goes down the line. Trapp thinks he saved her, but goal-line technology tells the official that she crossed the goal line a second time for Barcelona.

90 + 9 minutes: penalty kick, Barcelona! Barcelona paid a penalty kick and Ndica expelled! It's a very easy penalty kick for the referee to head 50-50 with De Jong, but the referee says it's a cross to the Dutch goalkeeper from behind. It's Nedica's second yellow card, and Frankfurt are 10 men behind. It certainly won't be enough for Barcelona, ​​but there is a glimmer of hope.

90 + 6 minutes: Three yellow cards were drawn in quick succession, the last of which was Ansgar Knauf after a violent tackle on Busquets in the midfield. Dembele and Frankfurt defender Ivan Ndika also appeared in the book.

Then, Xavi was warned on the touchline with Barcelona as frustration mounts.

90 + 1 min: The goal! Barcelona! Finally and fortunately, Barcelona has a goal. In fact, it's a good shot from Busquets' foot, who corrected his mistake moments ago. A poisonous mean ball hits the side nets, giving Barcelona a lifeline.

  Even with nine minutes of extra time, it was definitely too late.



89th minute: Chance, Barcelona! Now it's Busquets' turn to make a tragic mistake! A sharp shot into the front of the net finds Busquets, but she catches him off the crossbar. Just a totally weak show.

83rd minute: Chance, Barcelona! In the end, the hosts put the ball into the net, and Sergio Busquets completed a skewed shot from Frenkie de Jong, who did not survive the VAR, and Busquets was clearly offside. Without any purpose!

78th minute: Frankfurt's chance! Now it's Kamada's turn to make a mistake, hitting a wide ball over the ball from a well-angled, narrow hole. Barcelona is a complete disaster and a complete collapse.

76th minute: Frankfurt's chance! There are major holes in Barcelona's defense, and surprisingly, Frankfurt does not have a fourth, penetrating deeply into the home team's midfield. Bury finds himself with the ball in the six-yard box with acres of shooting space, but he catches it wide. Bad miss.

70th minute: Eric Garcia gives way to Luc de Jong, a final roll of the dice for Xavi who needs a break. Barcelona scored only four shots that night compared to 12 in Frankfurt despite 76%.

 



67th minute: A goal! Frankfurt! It's over, Barcelona took off in Europe and it's a popular night in Eintracht Frankfurt. It all came from a throw-in, and Kostik applied the knockout punch. Dest was a bit behind Kostic, and Ter Stegen again couldn't make a shot that didn't hit very quickly. A sinister effort from Barcelona at home to end this season's European adventure.




 

Minute 61: The referee watches, but does not ask for a penalty. The right move, as Bury had no intention of doing so and was simply against Torres when the ball arrived. The reference also has some equipment issues that increase the time limit. There will be a lot of time wasted in the end.
Adama Traore and Sergino Dest join Barcelona to replace Oscar Mingusa and Aubameyang.

Adama Traore and Sergino Dest join Barcelona to replace Oscar Mingusa and Aubameyang.

58th minute: Very good. We have a VAR check for the possibility of a handball in the aforementioned free kick from Jordi Alba, and the referee will walk towards the screen. The delivery was weak and weak, but he appeared and cut Perry's outstretched arm in his fight with Ferran Torres. He hit his arm, but it would be very cruel if I awarded a penalty…

During the delay, the Barcelona Ultras were seen leaving their headquarters in protest of Barcelona fans selling their tickets to Frankfurt fans. There is a large group of Germans at the stadium, all scattered around the stadium in white shirts, a clear indication that they obtained tickets through secondary means.


 

56th minute: It's unbelievable. Barcelona have a formidable array of touches in the Frankfurt penalty area, but despite the visitors' inability to escape, Barcelona are unable to shoot the ball. The home team with just three shots a day despite 75% possession and 458 assists for 150 from Frankfurt.

Jordi Alba followed moments after a terrifying free kick.

47th minute: Chance, Barcelona! What or what can. Aubameyang! Ousmane Dembele is the only Barcelona player who has played a good match. Starting from the right, the ball passed past the Frankfurt defenders and goalkeeper Trapp, but Aubameyang missed the goal. Wonderful.

Barcelona continues to show signs of urgency but their inability to create shots or finish a few is faltering


46th minute: Back to the second half. It remains to be seen if Xavi is able to turn him around in the second half, or if Barcelona will succumb to European disappointment here at home.



 

First half: Barcelona 0-2 Eintracht Frankfurt

A very impressive result, but not less than the German national team deserves. The visitors defended with such confidence and met so much poison that Barcelona didn't know how to handle the break.

Frankfurt has nine shots compared to Barcelona's two. Traffic was one of Barcelona's roads - 75 per cent - but Frankfurt had all the dangerous moments in the first half. Barcelona need a massive comeback to protect themselves from a complete exit from Europe.


44th minute: Chance, Frankfurt! Barcelona push and push with a real sense of urgency, but the hosts can't handle Eintracht Frankfurt's counterattack. Knauf closes again with a shot over the bar from the right flanked by a defender from behind.


36th minute: A goal! Frankfurt! Barcelona responded well after the first opening match, but everything fell apart! Rafael Buri is the one who does it all, entering from the left and shooting from a good distance from the top of the area. Nobody closed it, and Ter Stegen had to be saved from that distance. It's a mystery why he was so misplaced. Can Barcelona leave Europe together with ninth in the Bundesliga?


35th minute: Frankfurt scored an excellent goal from Ansgar Knauf on the right to cut the 20-year-old German past two Barcelona defenders, but his lopsided shot fell into the arms of Ter Stegen.

28th minute: A corner kick for Barcelona turns into an excellent corner for Frankfurt and forces Jaffe to pull Lindstrom to end the threat. The referee warns Jaffe, who is already the third card in the match half an hour ago, angers Xavi on the sidelines and forces the referee to speak with him. It was a strong and emotional match. Jaffe stops the next match with Garcia if Barcelona qualified.

24th minute: Christian Jakic received a yellow card from the referee after a violent clash with Ferran Torres, as he will be suspended for the next match if the Frankfurt team advances. Jakic was furious, shouting straight at the referee in a long, heated nose-to-nose exchange that ends only when a team member arrives and takes Jakic away. He had to be careful, it was worth the yellow to carry Torres.

20th minute: Barcelona asked for a penalty kick, as Jordi Alba fell in the penalty area before facing Mami Toure, but the referee stopped it. Alba is angry, and she slaps the ground angrily, but nothing for that. There is no clear and obvious error in which the VAR intervenes.

18th minute: Barcelona's chance! What gave goalkeeper Kevin Trapp? The former Paris Saint-Germain player hits a close shot at another center bar for Barcelona. This reel stops shading.

12th minute: Ousmane Dembele plays out of his mind. Philip Kostik finished the winger position and got another free kick for Barcelona. It's no use, but the Frenchman is clearly on a mission to keep the hosts updated. He's already won with 3 fouls and a 4/4 dribble!


 

Tenth minute: Barcelona's chance! The hosts again came close to equalizing early on, finding an excellent cross from Dembele on the outside of his boot over Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Gabonese international sends the ball across the goal, but it crosses the crossbar by several centimeters.

Sixth minute: For the first time in the match, the attacking Barcelona took a dangerous free kick after a mistake by Ousmane Dembele from a safe distance outside the upper right corner of the penalty area. The delivery was not allowed for some time, but eventually turned into a counterattack in Frankfurt that was only stifled by a fine interception behind the halfway line.

Fourth minute: A goal! Frankfurt! It was Filip Kostik who took the penalty, giving the Serbian a low shot in periods beyond Ter Stegen. This immerses the large German contingent in the crowd in an illusion. Barcelona plays again from the back as in the first leg.


Minute 3: Penalty kick, Frankfurt! The German national team dominated in the first minutes and Eric Garcia struggled against Jesper Lindstrom in the penalty area. Garcia received a yellow card for his problems, and rightly so, with his right arm wrapped around Lindstrom's shoulder and neck. Garcia is suspended for raising a yellow card should Barcelona finally advance.

Minute One: We're on our way! Almost immediately, Frankfurt's Raphael Bury scored from about 40 yards away, unsurprisingly long off target. The Germans are confident of starting the match!

15 min Tale / Q: Barcelona are hoping that the Camp Nou can achieve a more friendly result today than they have in the past in Europe.



30 min to K/O: Sounds like a great football day at the Camp Nou.



90 minutes to K/O: Eintracht Frankfurt fans are known to travel all over Europe, and today is no different. After taking over London three years ago before a game against Chelsea, fans have now roamed the streets of Barcelona and cut traffic as they went.



Two Hours at K/O: While Barcelona may look with envy at the remaining Champions League teams and hope to survive in Europe's biggest club competition, Xavi is using the Europa League as a motivating factor for his players. Barcelona has not won this title in the club's history.



Barcelona vs Eintracht Frankfurt

Xavi will need the full depth of his squad for this match as the hosts are without a number of players including Gerard Pique, Samuel Umtiti, Moussa Wago, Ansu Fati, Sergi Roberto and Dani Alves. Sergino Dest and Memphis Depay are available on the bench. Despite the absences, Xavi chose a strong team.

Coach Oliver Glasner has relatively fewer injuries to deal with on his team. Tota's red card in the first leg would see him lose the match in Catalonia and would require a change in defence.

Jibril Sow also made a big mistake in the midfield. Substitute goalkeeper Diant Ramage has also been left out, but striker Ragnar Ashe appears to be on the bench.

The composition of Eintracht Frankfurt (3-4-3): 1-Trapp (GK) - 18-Toure, 13-Hinteregger, 2-Ndicka - 36-Knauff, 6-Jakic, 17-Rode, 10-Kostic - 29 - Lindstrom, 19- Puri, 15- Kamada

Unsurprisingly, Barcelona is the favorite among athletes. With the level of the series, they are expected to move away from the German national team, and the return leg will take place in their home country.

Despite the number of injuries Xavi's side have suffered, the absence of guests is likely to have an even greater impact. With defensive injuries making Barcelona more vulnerable than usual at home, the markets are clearly sensing the possibility of scoring in this game.

Barcelona is expected to witness this confrontation as the club plays well despite European challenges. The hosting audience will be a big push, and there will be no difficulty in organizing the game.
