Group E: Barça will have to go for its qualification ‘… in Munich!
It may be this Tuesday that FC Barcelona missed its chance to see the knockout stages of the Champions League. By conceding a draw against Benfica Lisbon, he let slip two points (0-0) and above all remained within gun range of his evening opponent. Things are clear now: if Benfica wins against Dynamo Kiev, already eliminated, on the last day, the Catalans will have to win on the lawn of the huge Bayern Munich. Good luck.
