Barcelona got what they deserved yesterday - sometimes they seem like a team with no gameplan at all. Like kids in the schoolyard - everybody running at their own pace, tempo and in random direction.
Benfica got an easy win against Kiev and deservedly goes through to the knockouts.
Chelsea will have a much more difficult opponent due to the goal conceded in the 94th minute, they did rotate heavily for this game but still - conceding 3 goals against Zenit isn't something they should have allowed. They might regret it really soon.
Xavi is still trying to continue that Tiki-taka style of play and i dont see where this plan is heading to. If Barcelona stick to that outdated game pattern of Tiki Taka they are likely to suffer more losses. All clubs have understood their tactical game and they are not ready to change it, hence their lack of impact on many of their opponents. What a shame and toothless display of football against Bayern Munich yesterday. They never looked like they would score at any time. Memphis Depay needs to reverse his previous statement and offer apology for the disrespect rendered unto Bayern before the game.
