In three days, FC Barcelona will lock horns with Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.
Barcelona go into the game fresher of the two teams having not played since last week. PSG, on the other hand, have had two games this week, the latest of which came this past Saturday.
Taking on bottom-side Clermont at home, PSG were held to a tame 1-1 draw at home with only a late goal from Goncalo Ramos salvaging a point for Luis Enrique’s men.
The manager did make a host of changes to rest some of his key players keeping the Barcelona game in mind, but the result was far from ideal, with there even being a fresh injury concern.
PSG fans shout abuse towards Barcelona
Barcelona and their fans would have been keeping a close eye on things at Parc des Princes last night and will likely feel more confident of their chances after seeing PSG’s performance.
However, another thing that will have caught everyone’s attention in the Barça camp is the fact that some PSG fans were hurling abuse at the Blaugrana.
Indeed, some section of PSG ultras were chanting “F*** Barça! F*** Barça!” at the end of PSG’s match vs. Clermont last night, reports COPE.
It was vile and unnecessary behaviour from Les Parisiens’ supporters. But Barcelona could be in for more such reception when they step out at Parc des Princes next week.
The two teams will square off on April 10 in the French capital before the return leg is played on April 16 at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys in Montjuic.
