Five days later and the Barça delegates’ meeting is over, Task Joan Laporta Same words Xavi used After losing to Inter (1-0) at MilanThis complicates the European options in the Champions League. “It is a shameful arbitration, we have made it public. UEFA” shouted the Barça president, using the same word twice: “It was a shame, it was a shame”.

Barça made a mess in Europe no matter what Laporta continues to maintain its traditional optimism to enter the last 16. The opposite would have been an economic disaster (20 million euros would have been lost) and of course a sporting disaster.

But Laporta’s message to the European body is strong. As much or more as Xavi uses in Milan. “UEFA should look into it. obvious. The referee didn’t see it… But the VAR didn’t call him,” said the leader, who is still scandalous with what he went through at Giusseppe Meazza.

‘Clear penalty for Lewandowski’

“I am firmly attached to the Super League, everything will be much more professional,” said the leader, revealing that he did not see only two controversial actions. It went beyond Pedri’s disallowed target (“offered and then made him see he didn’t”) or Dumfries’ hand that wasn’t vetted by VAR. “I saw a very clear penalty. Lewandowskiit was a compulsion“, the president denounced.

“I don’t plan to stay out of the Champions League, we think we can beat Inter, Bayern and Viktoria with the team we have”

He doesn’t even want to think about the scenario of chaining one more year away from Europe’s greats, just in case. “I don’t plan to stay out of the Champions League, we think we can beat Inter, Bayern and Viktoria with the team we have,” Laporta said. “That should be the way to secure qualifying and I encourage Xavi.” and the team that will do it.”
