It would seem that on August 14, 2020, the Catalan team reached the bottom. On this day, she lost 2–8 to Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of the Champions League in Lisbon. Then it became clear that the end of the whole era of “blaugranas” had come. After such humiliation, Camp Nou wanted to leave Lionel Messi, but he was not allowed. But Luis Suarez and Vidal left, Rakitic went with them, and a year later, the Argentine followed them, then the team said goodbye to Antoine Griezmann. Finally, in the autumn of last year, the club’s financial problems were …

In the first 20 minutes of the match at the Parc des Princes, Bayern squeezed PSG, and then the Parisians adapted to the pressure and quickly broke it through a short pass. Moreover, in the second half of the half, they tore Bayern and created at least four scoring episodes. Neymar hit the post, the crossbar and Neuer twice, but it was not the Brazilian who scored, but the Munich team. Eric Maxim Chupo-Moting hit the hosts with a header (40′). The second half followed the same scenario as the first leg and the first half, but Bayern could not …

Nonetheless, even though the former Blue is eager to point it out that he always going to be grateful towards the fans for the support that they have shown him, he is going to be at Wembley expecting a win for Manchester City.
