The replay of the Champions League final eight stole all the lights, but it did not succeed in overcoming the strange state of “jinx” that haunts Barcelona wherever it goes, as if “the Blaugrana” was written on misery in the current era, threatening its historical value, which is looking for a “lifeline” for fear of collapse. And the “Catalan team” moved to the “Europa League” after occupying third place in its group in the Champions League, and “Barca” did not win or score except against Dynamo Kiev, “the bottom of the group”, while it conceded 9 times, including “six clean” by Bayern Munich by The loss is 0-3 back and forth, and because misfortunes do not come individually, the other tournament’s draw chose the most difficult opponent that the Blaugrana could face in that difficult period, as it collided with Napoli, the fourth Italian league currently, which was not an easy catch when they faced them in a final eight. Champions League 2019-2020».
In addition to the eighth place occupied by “Barcelona” in the Spanish League, there are disappointing results, poor level and other things that confirm the team’s inability to dream of approaching the top of the “La Liga”, as it makes its mission difficult in the King’s Cup, and it will never be able to overcome Real Madrid’s obstacle in half. The Super Final in this case, and it seems that “zero” will be recorded in the field of Barcelona’s achievements this season in light of the administrative confusion and “technical adventure” that Xavi is engaged in, with injuries chasing most of the basic elements and Aguero’s retirement after 165 minutes of playing and before Messi’s departure, to continue a “strange curse” Hit the “Catalan castle” with full force!
And if Barcelona is the undisputed “king of jinx” this season, then Austrian Red Bull was not at all lucky during the Champions League draw, as it landed it first with Liverpool before it was decided to replay against it “the terrible Bavarian”, and every time luck never stood with “ The new face.” Sporting Lisbon was also “a sinister” as he found himself in front of Juventus at the beginning, and perhaps he could have withstood the “old lady” in his not good condition, but the replay threw him into the fiery “aton” of Manchester City, which is expected to cross That stage without difficulties.
“Bad luck” prompted Real Madrid to show his anger in a funny way, but it is not worthy of “Royal” officials, because the historical champion of “Champions League” should not fear any competitor, and the change of Benfica and the storming of Paris Saint-Germain came to confirm that “Merenghi” does not trust himself very much now. And the title “Meeting the Unfortunate” could be the most appropriate for the confrontations between Real and Saint Germain, as well as Liverpool and Inter Milan, especially the last two who believed that reaching the quarter-finals would be within their reach by meeting the “Reds” with the representative of Salzburg, and despite the difficulty of meeting the “snakes” with Ajax warriors, but It has now completely changed.
Some believe that the return of the draw based on the protest of 3 teams did not smile at them, but the technical fact confirms that they are already “lucky” as Atletico Madrid escaped from the grip of Bayern, and United fled from the princes of Paris to meet together in an equal battle in a large proportion whose cruelty is not comparable to what was canceled And it is true that Villarreal replaced “City” with Juventus, but the “Bianconeri” will never be like “The Pelomon” in the current period, and Chelsea remains at the top of the “lucky” list, after the draw and its return insisted on keeping Lille as its opponent, and it is logical that the “Blues” pass from the The “Mastiff” trap, and “City” joined his English compatriot in the list of the lucky ones who were not put by the two lots in any difficult confrontation, while the “Bavarian” conciliation gave a quiet opportunity instead of a “complicated defensive and physical battle” in front of Rokhi Blancos, and of course drawing luck “scenario”. Benfica and Ajax meeting away from Real and Inter.
