Barcelona fans very optimistic about club's chances in the UCL ... (Barca Universal)

Eventually, Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Chelsea lifted the trophy once each, before Real Madrid caught up with their favourite competition last season.

Barcelona have found their place in the group of death, matched up against Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, and Victoria Plzen. Of the 18,666 voters (at the time of writing), a whopping 50% (9,333) voted for ‘finals’. Finally, 5% (933) did not think their journey out of the group stages would lost long, succumbing to a Round of 16 exit. Barcelona have got off to a flying start, too, winning three games out of four in the league, scoring 11 goals and conceding one. After etching a 3-0 win in the home leg against Liverpool, Ernesto Valverde’s team fell to defeat 4-0 at Anfield. They won the competition in 2016, despite Barça being the overwhelming favourites given their run of form.

But in the second half, Neymar just changed the course of the game; he assisted 4 goals and himself scored one goal that night. Another reason for that night being special was MSN, the deadly trio of Barca, was on fire that night. Thus Liverpool became the first team in UCL to score 6 goals after halftime. Madrid 8-0 the win came under Rafa Benitez who coincidentally was coach of Liverpool when they had their 8-0 win against Besiktas.
