Tiktukno: Summary of today's events in sports, 13.10 (Sport1)

For the second time in a row, Barcelona will likely be eliminated from the Champions League already in the group stage.

The Catalans squeezed a dramatic 3:3 with Inter last night (Wednesday), but an expected victory of the Nerazzurri over Viktoria Plzen in the next round will send Xavi and his players to the secondary factory of Europe, and Inter and Bayern Munich to the round of 16.



"It was an evening of suffering," Marka wrote.

"Barcelona needs a miracle, but no one - not Xavi, not the coach, not the management - believes they will advance to the round of 16."

Santi Nola from "Mundo Deportivo" agreed: "This European season is a disaster. With a large squad and a lot of signings, Barcelona is not able to beat any big team in Europe. Only Robert Lewandowski seems to belong at this level."



"Barcelona were drawn to the house of death, but no one expected suicide at Camp Nou," Xavier Bosch of "Mundo Deportivo" engraved.

"Without Messi, Barcelona is a European League team."

Will the flea come back to save the day?

probably not.

According to "Sport", "the rumors may be many, but today there is even less chance of that happening. The circumstances are simply impossible. There was no contact between the parties, and while Juan Laporte would like a comeback, the chances of Messi returning are very, very low."

This does not look good.

"This will shake Laporte's ambitious project," Sport wrote.

"He invested over 200 million euros, gave Xavi almost everything the coach wanted, but football is not just about money, as you see at Paris Saint-Germain. You have to work hard, build a system and be patient, but the problem is that Barcelona don't have time . It is constantly under pressure, especially in the Champions League, where no mistakes can be made. Laforte put all his chips on this revolution, but it seems his project has failed."



Among other things, Spain dealt with the future of Gerard Pique, who is expected to leave before his contract expires in 2024.

"It is very difficult to imagine him continuing for another season," wrote "AS".

"He won't spend a whole season on the bench, which will happen once the rest of the brakes get healthy, and besides, he's no longer at a high level. Against Inter he looked like a shadow of himself and the fans lost patience and booed him. It wasn't easy to see - one of the greatest brakes in history the club.



The journalist Javier Miguel agreed and wrote: "It was one of his worst games in Barcelona. He is slow, we constantly pass him, we are predicting the death of one of the best stoppers ever. The end of his career is very close."

"Sport" also criticized the veteran stopper, but argued that most of the blame should fall on Xavi: "The mistakes of Pique and Sergio Busquets symbolize the decline of the veteran players, who were once again not good enough, but the culprit is actually Xavi. He completed Only half of his revolution, but he has not finished dealing with the sacred cows. Making a revolution and continuing to play with the veterans is not a revolution."
