The Barcelona squad watched the Real Madrid match live: “What a bathroom!”

Despite the fact that they were concentrated in Frankfurt to play the match against Eintracht corresponding to the quarterfinals of the Europa League, the Blaugrana squad did not want to miss Real Madrid’s match against Chelsea in London. Taking advantage of the fact that the entire squad, staff and players were in the hotel dining room for dinner, a giant screen was set up to be able to follow the match.

The truth is that as the game progressed, the sensations were rather strange and contradictory, since who more or less thought that it was going to be a very even duel and that it would be open until the last minute of the tie. However, Karim Benzema’s unappealable hat trick left few options for the second leg. “What a bathroom!” was one of the most repeated comments among the footballers, who could not believe the facilities that Chelsea was givingespecially in the third goal, after an incomprehensible mistake by goalkeeper Mendy.

The players, who endured the entire game, many incredulous with what they were seeing, were very surprised at the end by the lack of competitiveness of a team like Chelsea, which had stood out for something in recent years, and which had taken to the top in the Champions League, it was his great physical and mental demand, which forced him to give a ‘plus’ to his rivals. “There hasn’t been much emotion, everything has been very easy for Real Madrid”, commented some, resigned to the Whites’ display of play.

And it is that as a heavyweight recognized, as soon as the match ended, Real Madrid “can never be considered dead”. And reason was not lacking because after falling humiliated 0-4 in the Clásico and winning controversially in Vigo, with three penalties in favor, he has managed to show his head in Europe, having qualification for the Champions League semifinals practically in his pocket.
