Not even the curfew saves Barça: firecrackers at 4 in the morning

“A pending account”, the cover headline of L’Équipe with a photo of Mbappé facing Dest at the Camp Nou leaves no room for doubt: the comeback from four years ago still stings in Paris. Le Parisien, on the cover also alludes to the need to “definitely forget the comeback of 2017”.

In fact since then the Spanish word ‘comeback’ is in common use in France, where it has even been used in elections and electoral campaigns. All this thanks to the impact that the 6-1 of the Camp Nou of the year 2017 had that turned the 4-0 that Unai's team achieved in the Parque de los Príncipes in the first leg.

That party further aggravated the relations between the two entities, which has been revealed as a contemporary rivalry of the 21st century. The PSG fans do not like Barça, as was clear in the run-up to the first leg, when they fired their team on their way to Barcelona with flares and 'Puta Barça' banners, the unfortunate performance they repeated on Monday alluding to Shakira and yesterday's final number throwing firecrackers at four in the morning in front of the FC Barcelona hotel.
