With a level 1-1 aggregate scoreline, Barcelona heads home to the Camp Nou looking to keep its European journey alive alongside its strong recent domestic ...
Unsurprisingly, Barcelona are the favorites with the sportsbooks. Barcelona should see this tie through, as the club is playing well despite the European challenges. Barcelona now playing from behind again, as it was in the first leg. Barcelona have never won this title in club history. With injuries in defense also making Barca potentially more vulnerable at home than they usually are, the markets clearly sense the possibility of goals in this game. The German side is confident to open the match! The delivery isn't cleared for some time, but eventually it turns into a Frankfurt counter-attack which is only snuffed out by a good interception just past halfway. He clowns Filip Kostic on the wing and wins another free-kick for Barcelona. It comes to nothing, but the Frenchman is clearly on a mission to will the hosts back level. 20th min: Barcelona appeals for a penalty as Jordi Alba goes down in the box under an Almamy Toure challenge, but the referee waves it away. While Barcelona has surged in La Liga play, now second in the standings with 14 matches unbeaten, European play has proven more challenging. Barcelona was out-shot by Frankfurt in the first leg 16-7 despite holding 67 percent possession, and Xavi was forced to defend his team's less-than-stellar performance away from home. Alba is FURIOUS, slapping the ground in anger, but there's hardly anything in that.

The delivery isn't cleared for some time, but eventually it turns into a Frankfurt counter-attack which is only snuffed out by a good interception just past halfway. 20th min: Barcelona appeals for a penalty as Jordi Alba goes down in the box under an Almamy Toure challenge, but the referee waves it away. It's Rafael Borre who does it all, cutting in from the left and letting loose from a good distance outside the top of the box. Barcelona has an enormous flurry of touches in the Frankfurt penalty area, but despite the visitors' inability to clear, Barcelona cannot get a shot off. 67th min: GOAL! Frankfurt! It's over, Barcelona is crashing out of Europe, and it's a famous night for Eintracht Frankfrut. It all came from a throw-in, and Kostic applies the deathblow. We have a VAR check for a possible handball on the aforementioned free-kick from Jordi Alba, and the referee is going to the monitor. He springs free down the right, and it gets by the Frankfurt defenders and Trapp, but Aubameyang flubs it with the goal gaping. The delivery was low and poor, but it pops up and clips the outstretched arm of Borre as he battled with Ferran Torres. It did hit his arm, but this would be incredibly harsh if a penalty is called... Borre ends up on the ball in the six-yard box with acres of space to shoot but he shanks it well wide, a bad miss. A calamitous performance from the hosts produces a shocking result, as a reported 30,000 Frankfurt fans were on hand to watch the action at the Camp Nou. Barcelona held 75% possession throughout proceedings but could not generate good chances, with just 10 total shots across the match to Frankfurt’s 15, most of which came in the final minutes as the hosts scrambled for a late miracle.

Kostic scores the penalty with class! Borre with a golazo!!!! 😳— FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) April 14, 2022 Barca with two shots an an xG of just 0.20. Another goal for the visitors! It was sloppy all around, and now Barça have conceded four penalty in their last two games. After a wild comeback at Levante last weekend in La Liga, doing it again was unlikely here. An unbelievable day for the club. When the sign showing the added minutes came up, it was 3-0 and so one sided. Barça got a late consolation goal from Sergio Busquets with the tie already decided before earning another one via a Memphis Depay penalty kick in the final seconds. But it was the 2-0 goal that stole the show. Barcelona's dream of silverware this season is over and in stunning fashion.
