At the end, the experiment of Ronald Koeman could not go out better and the Barcelona left of Ukraine with the pass in the pocket and with a goleada in favour. The Ukrainians received a painful 0-4 in front of the 'baby Barça' that put the Dutch.

Martin Braithwaite, that to his 29 years was one of the veterans that played this past Tuesday, marked two of the four so many that annotated the culés. By his side, Sergiño Dest, of so alone 20 years, put one and Antoine Griezmann, that went in in the second part, materialised the another. In summary, a goleada fraguada in the first part by part of a group barcelonista that ilusionó a lot of.

The fact that they did not play of start footballers like Antoine Griezmann (29), Leo Messi (33), Gerard Hammered (33), Jordi Alba (31) or Sergio Busquets (32) allowed to go down a lot the average of age. An average that, in fact, could have been even more low if it had played Riqui Puig (21) in place of Miralem Pjanic (30), that is something that commented . Finally, it split of start the one of Tuzla and the one of Matadepera went out in the second half.
