Bummer that Dembele got injured again. Copa matches were the best way for him to get a runout and acclimatize.

How did we not get a goal in this match :facepalm:

Anyway, I think we'll play a stronger side in the Camp Nou. Need to keep a clean sheet.

The only problem I have with getting kicked out of copa is getting kicked out by RM or Espanyol. Otherwise, i do not care that much about copa this time around. We have won it so many times and we already are on a streak. The only other good thing with winning it again would be to make it 4 in a row. Would that be some sort of record?

Seems like 4 is the maximum streak:

Bilbao (1930-1933), Madrid (1905-1908).

Glad that Umtiti is back. Vermaelen injured though. We have some serious depth problems at CB.

Need an early goal in this one.... not something we're very good at this season.

Real is out, so have a good chance at this Copa again.

Match is too late for me though, doubt I'll see it.

"Even if there are favourites, we have to prove it," Busquets said. "Yes, we were better in the tie, more than the scoreboard reflects.

"In Cornella it was a more insane game, they celebrated in Cornella as if they had passed the round, but the tie lasts 180 minutes and we put things in their place."
