Barcelona's Champions League Woes Continue as PSG Advance
Manager Xavi Irate After 6-4 Aggregate Defeat
Miserable Season Comes to a Head for Barça
The misery of Barcelona's season hit rock bottom on Wednesday as they were dumped out of the Champions League by Paris Saint-Germain 6-4 on aggregate. The 4-1 drubbing at the Camp Nou saw Barca waste a golden chance to advance to the semi-finals after winning the first leg 3-2.
The defeat has left manager Xavi fuming, with the Spaniard particularly angry with referee István Kovács for failing to award his side a penalty in the first half. "The referee has made a mistake. It was a clear penalty on Ousmane Dembélé," Xavi said after the match. "I don't understand how he can miss that."
The result leaves Barcelona facing a bleak future. The club has now been on the wrong end of three second-leg comebacks in the Champions League since winning the title in 2015. It is a worrying trend that suggests that the team is not where it needs to be to compete at the highest level.
The defeat will also raise questions about the future of Xavi. The former Barcelona midfielder has been in charge for just over a year, but he has yet to turn the club's fortunes around. The Champions League exit is a major setback, and it could cost Xavi his job.
