Bayern Defeat Barcelona 8-2 To Advance To UCL Semifinals 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Aug 15, 2020 12:23 pm

Bayern Munich defeated Barcelona 8-2 in the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Bayern went up 4-1 after just 30 minutes.

\"We\'ve hit rock bottom,\" Gerard Pique said. \"We need to change -- not just players, not just managers. I\'m not talking about individuals, I\'m talking about structural change. If it will help the club, I\'ll leave, too. Today was unacceptable. It was a disgrace.\"

The previous time Barcelona conceded eight goals in an official match came against Sevilla in the Copa del Rey, except it wasn\'t called that because the king was in exile -- it was the Copa del Generalissimo Francisco Franco. The year was 1946.
