While its situation in the Spanish league is quite worrying, when it comes to the Champions League Barcelona continues to do its duty.

Last night (Tuesday) she defeated Dynamo Kiev 0: 4 in the secondary squad, securing her place in the quarterfinals despite missing rested Leo Messi and Frankie de Jong and the injured Gerard Pique, Sergi Roberto, Anso Patti and Sergio Busquets.



The Catalans combined many young home players, some of whom made their Champions League debut, and received encouraging ability from them.

The goals were signed by acquisition players: Martin Braithwitt scored a double, Serginio Dest added and Antoine Griezmann came in as a substitute signed with the fourth.



In Barcelona last night, the data of Braithwitt compared to that of Luis Suarez, who did not win in an away game in the Champions League in a Barça uniform for 25 consecutive games.

Braithwitt, on the other hand, stands on two goals in two games this season, prompting the media in Barcelona to announce the possibility of him becoming Barcelona's senior central striker.



"Breitwitt was given a rare opportunity in the squad, and did not disappoint," Mundo Deportivo noted.

"He may be a candidate to leave the transfer window in January, but tonight he proved it might be worth leaving him and trying to get more out of him."

In the end, Ronald Koeman also praised Braithwitt, but also the graduates of "La Masia" - led by the young stopper Oscar Mingsa who was promoted from Barcelona B to the senior team due to the lack of key positions in the defense, and showed impressive ability.

"There is not a bad chance at all that Oscar will continue to get minutes in the league. He is a candidate to start in our next games," Koeman said after 21-year-old Mingsa made his senior team debut.



Koeman tries to broadcast business as usual in media interviews, but in other situations he seems quite troubled by the blow of injuries that has landed on Barcelona.

In a conversation with Dynamo Kyiv coach Mircha Lucescu, the Dutch Barcelona coach was documented as saying: "We had a lot of bad luck. Anso Patti is out, Sergi Roberto is out, Pique will not play for four to five months. This situation is crazy."



By the way, according to the Catalan media, Koeman's prediction about the duration of Pique's absence is still quite early.

According to some reports, Pique is still debating whether to undergo surgery - which could lead to an absence of at least half a year, and may end his season.



Antoine Griezmann, who came in as a substitute and scored the last goal, "showed encouraging signs" according to the Catalan media, when he gave Breitwitt a penalty kick.

"Perhaps the release of steam in an interview he provided this week, made him less tense," Sport noted.
