Why would you push a player that is heading to the goal as a last defender? Why would you tackle a player that has his back to the goal and is heading out of the box? Barça destroyed themselves and PSG was to take advantage, for once it's not us destroying ourselves lmao
@@thatblackguy69oh yeah, that Joao Cancelo penalty was really silly and you don’t expect someone with his experience to do that. But tbh, they were already doing some desperate defending already due to being one man down and I feel they were running on muscle memory and instinct. He saw an opportunity to get the ball and lunged at it.
There's no controversy, there's just a decision hard to swallow for Barca fans, and I can understand that, we all do, that's football. Always difficult to play against Barca but this time my team won. I hope you all the best in La Liga
that was definitely a red i completely agree. the only decision i have a problem with is the call for Gundogan penalty. It was 50/50 even if he didn't call it at least Gundo shouldn't have received a yellow for dive cause there was definitely contact even if it was soft
I'm Brazilian and a Barça fan way back since Ronaldo. But there's no controversy, Araujo made a real mess of things. First, it was him that made a bad pass that resulted in the swift counter attack. And then he went on to foul the PSG player, which resulted in a text book red card. It would have been better if he let the PSG player score, since Barça would still have been in the driver's seat in terms of qualification. But once you're playing one man down with a lot of time yet to go, hardly ever, specially at this level, will the team with 10 men be able to resist.
As a Barca fan.. We suffer from past success. Barca was so used to things being easy, when we had Messi and the likes at their peak. The moment when Barca has to show character, they fall short. And that's also the difference, between us and Madrid. Not skill, not money or talent. Just the mindset of expecting everything to go your way (not necessarily to be favored)
As a Barca fan I'd say it's a red card. To say that it didn't change the game is wrong though. Given the shitty start to the season that Barca had, I think we were very vulnerable when not having all 11 on the field to cover their positions, since posession is sort of an extra defense. The players went back to the "headless chicken"-defense tactics of the fall, in many cases. PSG also had moments in the first game where they dominated, so I think it'd been the same tug of war of dominance with all 11 Barca players on the pitch. One thing that really pissed me off though was Dembele's behavior. Just showed zero empathy for his old team, with annoying little smirks on his face in various situations.
Xavi is a terrible coach. When all your players are stressed and want to achieve results, the coach should be the one comforting and calming them. Instead, he only adds more fuel to the fire. Even someone like Guardiola, who is always agitated and demands perfection from his players, knows how to conceal his frustration and always encourages his players to move forward. You might be a technical genius, but if you don't know how to manage the personalities, emotions, and synergy of the group on and off the pitch, then coaching is not for you, especially at the highest level of the game.
Ofc it's the Red card the reason Barca lost, Barca lost their best defender & attacker in Lamine due to needing to add a defender to replace him. It screwed everything nothing much they could have done
It was a red card, soft one, but it was last defender. But there should be a penaltie in last minute for Barca, when the score was still 1:3, so it could be different if ref pointed to a spot.
The ref is Romanian, and I know him well from the Romanian league, where he was involved in many controversies, and some awkward bad calls. But I think he did his job according to the book last night, but maybe the VAR should have notified him to review that red card, just to be 100% as it was a huge call to make...
This ref was terrible. The yellows he gave were stupid. You can debate about the red card but doesn't matter it is what it is. But in general trash refereeing.
I actually agree, he was somewhat more strict that we are used to in Spain, but I think that's actually good, players get away with to much BS nowadays. Except the yellow card for Lewandoski I think he overall did a pretty good job.
Decisions were correct xavi cries so much instead of taking responsibility he is is crying people should watch what gundougan said im his interview he said we missed a lot and we lost it ourselves but xavi loves dodging responsibility
Bruh all these Madrid fans saying it was a red, that was the biggest flop ive seen. Promise you if it was Madrid, they would would be saying its not even a foul.
As a FCB fan, the ref should’ve at least reviewed the call given the stakes.. but at the same time Araujo should’ve never been that reckless especially that early in the game. I rather take the goal and fight on with 11, than have to play with a man down for the rest of the game.. we move in. Visca Barca
I understand why he did it, it's just not good logic. He had tunnel vision, he was only thinking about stopping the goal rather than the consequences of what he'd do. It was a red card, but the other calls he made in this match were more questionable. There is always next year for Barça because Football is a game of "Next year." We know 3rd or 2nd is expected, 1st if we're pushing it. I hope Xavi stays because he's the man for this job.
My take as a somewhat biased barca fan: That was absolutely not a red. Not under the last man rule, not under normal open play rules, nothing. That was a tap with no force behind it, barcola jumped just when he felt it. By that logic the time gundo got pushed in the box by vitinha and marquinhos shouldve been a pen with 2 yellows given out at least
The big difference between Gundogan and barcola is that Gundogan pushed his ball too far couldn't win the exchange even if vitinha don't trip him he'd have lost the ball , barcola had a clear 1 v 1 with the keeper. If you can't see that at this point you are indeed biased too biased in fact to take your opinion into consideration
@@matteoatigui2411 a push in the box is a push in the box no matter what, its like saying "oh ref i got the ball" after high boot slide tackling someone. Yes, you did get the ball but you also violated another rule
@@marlibeshaj1069 the fact that he lost the ball before the contact with vitinha supercedes the actual contact since the ref doesn't consider Gundogan to be in attacking position anymore . That's not a penalty in a million years but I can see with all the imaginary penalties barca got over the years... that must feel like a robbery but I assure you in real life in football played without referees in your pockets... that's how it works sometimes .
@@matteoatigui2411 pens have been given out for situation like that all the time, just look them up, but noooo anything to defend psg and that whole ordeal
Huge barca fan here, ZERO controversy in my eyes, pretty much textbook redcard, even some barca players (I think Frenkie, Gundo and Ter Stegen) in interviews just the match that pretty much was a dumb foul. And considering that they had the goal advantage and it was that early in the match I have to think that it was a pretty dumb fould that cost them the leg. But 0 hate for Araujo for me he still world class.
Now we have 2 german, 1 spain and 1 french team in the semis. Premier league is so fucking overrated by media. Bundesliga is the best league this season
Didnt watch your vid yet but there was no controversy there. None at all. Except maybe the controversial fact how barca players menaged to fuck everything up with their decisions.
Barca always does this lol. I cant remember when was the last time Barca lost and they didnt blame someone else for it hahaha. The grass, the opposition fans, the weather, the pitch the coach lol its always something

It s a textbook red card, easy to sell as well because of the speed and advantage position

There's only a controversy for the Barca's fans, nobody in the rest of Europe (UK, Italy, Germany...) think there's one.
imo the ref did a good job. Except for the yellow card for Lewandowski (wasn't an elbow), all his big decisions were right.

It is extremely difficult, I would argue almost impossible to win a top flight game with a man down, especially at min 29!
LOL
The ref got every decision correct. What a performance
The crucial decisions yes but most yellow cards were pretty random.
What about Gundo's penalty?
No controversy, if you say so , cry in silence
Stop the drama, no controversy here,

It's a CLEAR red card. No matter how little the foul was
the red card affected the game. They took off Lamine (their best counter attacking player) and lost their best defender(aurajo) in one move.
Xavi is first a fan and then a coach or player for Barça. It's the team of his life, he can't control it.
Ofc it's the Red card the reason Barca lost, Barca lost their best defender & attacker in Lamine due to needing to add a defender to replace him. It screwed everything nothing much they could have done

Clear penalty. How dumb can a defender be. Also clear red. Only Xavi is crying. Even ter Stegen (barcas keeper) said it was a right decision
That's not a controversy its a clear last man challenge and hence its a clear red.
