Barcelona Have ‘Clear Plan’ for Newcastle After Champions League Mistakes
Hansi Flick instructs Barcelona to manage Newcastle's intense atmosphere and fast start while emphasizing concentration and learning from recent key defeats, AS reports.
- On March 10, Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick sent his Barcelona squad clear instructions ahead of the UEFA Champions League last-16 first leg at St James' Park.
- Because of recent setbacks, Hansi Flick prioritised learning from the Copa del Rey loss to Atletico Madrid and last season's semi against Inter, emphasising concentration throughout the match.
- Match observations noted Barcelona practised more deeply defending late in their weekend win, with Lamine Yamal telling Raphinha and Lewandowski to hold positions, not press.
- Newcastle will re-assess Jacob Murphy's neck problem on Monday with hopes he can play, while Eddie Howe said Gordon and Joelinton were protected and Botman preferred over Burn.
- As a club milestone, the encounter positions Newcastle to seek revenge after a 2-1 group-stage loss to Barcelona, their second time reaching the Champions League last 16.
