UEFA Champions League: The Estadio Olímpico Lluís Companys will witness an emotionally charged evening on Tuesday, March 11th, as FC Barcelona play hosts to Benfica in the second leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie. The memory of Dr. Carles Miñarro is still close to every fan’s heart.
The mood at Montjuic will be charged, mixing fierce resolve with a warm tribute. Barcelona retains a slender but precious lead after winning 0-1 in Lisbon—a game that will be remembered for the dramatic turnaround following the early red card to Cubarsí.
German manager Hansi Flick will have his first big European test as Barcelona head coach. He is likely to play the same starting lineup from the first leg, although Cubarsí’s suspension will see Uruguay’s Araujo replace the defensive gap.
