The game: On a wire, then solid, Bayern eventually liquefy
Originally, the Guardiola game plan was suicidal, with a 3-4-3 scheme that left the Bavarian defenders in one against one face of Barcelona attackers. Bayern coach changed his shoulder rifle through a back four with the release of the first quarter hour. In this configuration, the Bavarian club has thwart Barca, if not dangerous (0 shot on target). Until the fatal mistake of Bernat which led to the opening of Messi score. Led 1-0, Bayern has been liquefied in the last quarter of an hour. His defense has left the boulevards that Messi and Neymar have fully exploited. At this level, the errors are paying a high price.

Players: Messi runs on the water
Two goals, one assist, and the constant feeling that this player is elusive: Lionel Messi fathom everyone in 2015. Ivan Rakitic, brimming with activity and decisive passer, was the strongest man in the middle of Barcelona. As always, Javier Mascherano was imperial in the Catalan hinge. Bayern Manuel Neuer pulled out two big saves to keep Bayern afloat, before giving him too. Bastian Schweinsteiger made a full match in midfield. Unlike Bernat, overdue face Messi and guilty on the goal that changes the face of the game.
Lionel Messi (Barça) against Bayern – Panoramic
Weekend stat: Bayern took possession, and it is already a It is an event. Bayern had 52% of possession at the Camp Nou, against 48% for Barca. This is the first time since December 2006 and a match against Werder Bremen as the Catalan club does not dominate his opponent in this field in the Champions League. Another highlight, Bayern managed more passes that Barca (421 against 361). Evidence that Barcelona were struggling to bring their game up. But upon arrival, they still have one foot in Berlin.
What could have changed everything
Robben, Ribery and Alaba. Bayern upset Barca during most of the match. If he had had a player capable of accelerating and eliminate the Bavarian club could have known a better fate at Camp Nou. Conversely, Barcelona could count on his best individualities. This is what allowed him to make a difference, more than his collective. Regarding Alaba, it is mainly from the level displayed by Bernat about this match that his absence was detrimental for Josep Guardiola’s team.

The declara: Gerard Piqué (defender FC Barcelona)
“That a team like Bayern do a spelling setting is sensational.”
The question: This Barça is it flawless
Bayern were the developer for this irresistible Barça in 2015. And the victory of the Catalans speaks volumes about the level of Luis Enrique team. Of course, as PSG in the previous round, the Bavarian club, three major private players, has not really fought on equal face Barcelona in full. But he still fielded six world champions at kickoff. The way the German champion was shattered in the last quarter hour leaves little doubt: this Barça is above the lot.
Lionel Messi is obviously not there for nothing. The Argentine made the difference almost alone against Bayern. While Barça can count on two world class strikers Luis Suarez and Neymar with the Pulga is still on another planet. This is the first observation after the shock awaited face the team of Guardiola who nevertheless knows very well the Argentine.
But it would be a mistake to reduce the quality of that Barça Messi’s talent. The defensive solidity of Luis Enrique team also came to light facing a Bayern unable to frame a shot at the Camp Nou. Barcelona is yet more accustomed to defend keeping the ball, and he did not have possession against Bayern. Without playing in the traditional style, he showed he could be just as effective. Front as behind. And if he can do that, it becomes really difficult to find fault.
