Barcelona’s Players Sad After Defeated by PSG in the Champions League
Barcelona’s players were visibly disappointed after being unexpectedly defeated by their visitors Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) with a score of 1-4 at the Estadi OlÃmpic LluÃs Companys in the early hours of Wednesday (4/17/2024).
The defeat came as a shock, as Barcelona managed to win 3-2 when they visited PSG at the Parc Des Princes on April 11. However, they were unable to replicate that success in the home leg, leading to their elimination from the competition.
The defeat was particularly heartbreaking as Barcelona had to play with 10 men after Ronald Araujo was shown a straight red card. The result was considered anti-climatic, given their previous victory over PSG.
The 1-4 loss against PSG put Barcelona trailing 4-6 on aggregate against the French club. The defeat was sealed with a goal by PSG’s Kylian Mbappe, to which Barcelona’s goalkeeper, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, reacted strongly.
The images of the players’ sad faces at the end of the match, including reactions from Ferran Torres, Inigo Martinez, and Ilkay Gundogan, captured the disappointment and frustration of the team.
The defeat marked the end of Barcelona’s journey in the Champions League for the 2023/2024 season, leaving fans and players alike with a sense of sadness and regret.
