 There are no consequences after a 2-8 in the Champions League. Especially if a team called Barcelona is the loser: it will be a Blaugrana revolution, from the technical to the managerial department, already announced by Josep Maria Bartomeu. According to reports from Spain, the club's number one has convened a board of directors of the club for Monday. That will be the place where the decisions announced in the post Barcelona-Bayern will be revealed.
    Spanish newspapers very close to the Blaugrana club such as Mundo Deportivo speak of the possible calling of elections for the presidency, already scheduled for 2021, which could be brought forward by a few months. Coach Quique Setien will pay the flop of the Champions League first: on the Barcelona bench since January, he will be replaced after just eight months and no trophy on the showcase. Xavi the favorite, Pochettino the alternative. But the entire sports management is also at great risk, from Ramon Planes to Eric Abidal to CEO Oscar Grau.
    Final decisions will follow in the next few hours, but the time to start from scratch is short: the next Spanish championship starts already on 12 September.
    Meanwhile, Barcelona president Bartomeu apologizes after the debacle against Bayern: "A very heavy result. Bayern played a great game and deserved the semi-final.
    We, on the other hand, were not up to par, it was a disaster: Piqué is right. ". And now? "We have to make some changes: we have already made some decisions, others we will announce in the coming days. Now we just have to think about what happened on the pitch: a very tough match. We apologize to the Barça fans."
