After four years full of challenges and hard work, it's time to move on.
I leave with the feeling that the mission is complete. 4 seasons, 3 championships.
I will never forget the love I received from the fans from my very first days.
Catalonia is my place on earth.
Thank you to everyone I met along the way during these beautiful four years.
A special thank you to President Laporta for giving me the chance to live the most incredible chapter of my career.
Barça is back where it belongs.
Visca el Barça. Visca Catalunya 💙❤️

It is all or nothing. All eyes on Metropolitano Std. Let all will be witness. The greatest come back of the year. Let's go! 😎 #ChampionsLeague#AtletiBarça#ViscaBarca
🚨 Thierry Henry on Paul Cubarsi Red card that led to Barcelona goal :
“No, no, no… for me, that’s not a red card. I’m sorry.
I understand the rule — last man, denying a goal-scoring opportunity — but you have to look at the situation. The ball is not fully under control, the angle is not perfect, and there’s still a bit of distance to goal.
Are we sure he’s scoring? I’m not convinced.
For me, that’s a yellow card, not a red. Because once you send him off, you change the whole game. And in the Champions League, you need to be 100% sure.
I think the referee was too quick there.”
Atletico defend better than us. Especially a lot of saves by Musso. Joan Garcia is not his level.
We have a lot of attempts but, for sake, we need better finisher.
The ref & co? Do they really dont like us? 🤷🏻♂️

A Portuguese fan of Benfica: 🗣️🚨
“Now I finally understand why Real Madrid have 15 Champions League titles…
Last season we played three games against Barcelona. They beat us twice at our stadium convincingly; once with a comeback, and another time while playing with ten men. They faced us with honor and fairness on the pitch.
As for Real Madrid? We were robbed. Valverde violently slapped one of our players, Camavinga acted like he was in a WWE ring, and Carreras kept diving and pretending without even getting a yellow card!
The strange thing in Spain is that Barcelona are being tried in the Negreira case, yet everyone knows who the real ‘thief’ is.”
🗣️🚨Do you remember Ancelotti’s famous statement back when he was Bayern’s coach after his game against Real Madrid, when he said people doubted Bayern’s abilities after being knocked out by Madrid, but that it was because of the referee Kassai?
Today Mourinho says he was sent off because he told the referee something obvious — that the referee had a paper saying Tchouaméni, Huijsen, and Carreira could not receive a yellow card so they wouldn’t miss the second leg, and he didn’t book them — even though Carreira deserved it twice.
Two of the most important figures and coaches in Real Madrid’s history, when they faced this dirty club, couldn’t handle all that injustice and immediately spoke about the referees.
And despite that, some Madrid fans and even some spineless “culés” blame Flick and previously Xavi for talking about referees while they watch this club’s “robberies” every week.
Madrid is most corrupt institution I've ever seen 👌🏾
🚨🎙️| José Mourinho after Benfica’s defeat to Real Madrid and his red card:
“I’ve been on the touchline for more than 1,400 matches. I know football. I know how these things work. Today, it felt like some players were untouchable.”
“When you see certain names on the pitch and you already know they won’t get booked no matter what happens, you start to understand the script. It’s not about one foul — it’s about consistency.”
“I told the referee exactly what I felt. If you’re brave enough to send me off, you should be brave enough to treat everyone the same.
“In the end, one side plays the game, the other side plays with protection. And everyone watching knows it.”
