Barcelona - Napoli 3-1

A great victory for Barcelona, they played totally attacking throughout the match. From the statistics I see a very good figure, 24 shots taken and 10 shots on goal. Really a good match to watch, a pity for Napoli, in the first leg they had shown that they could get the qualification, but at Camp Nou it is difficult to come out victorious

This is the first time Barcelona has advanced to the quarter finals in the champion league since 2020. it has been 4 years since Barcelona has never been to the quarter finals. maybe because of this year's drawing which brought together Barcelona with a fairly light opponent. although Napoli is actually a strong team but this season since Spaleti left this team struggles to play very badly in local competitions. and in the Italian league Napoli is currently ranked 7th.

Barcelona was lucky because they got to face Napoli in the round of 16. Because this season Napoli is not in good performance. In fact, there have been 3 changes of coaches at the Napoli club, which means Napoli have to continue to adapt every time they change coaching. And this makes Napoli even more unstable. And Barcelona can certainly beat them in this second leg. Although at first I didn't think that Barcelona would lose by quite a score. But the defeat with a score of 3-1 really made it clear that Napoli is currently still not stable even with their new coach at the moment.

Barcelona secured their spot in the Champions League quarterfinals by defeating Napoli 4-2 on aggregate. With Xavi at the helm, Barcelona seems to be on the right track, but it requires patience to see the process through. It's hard to say whether they were lucky or not, as they've had also their share of struggles. Despite that, they played well and emerged victorious. Napoli, on the other hand, had a tough outing and need to work on playing more cohesively as a team. It's disappointing to see Napoli's decline this season, especially considering they were champions last season. Changes are needed to turn things around for the current Italian champions.
