DBasia.news –  Domination and opportunities created by Barcelona did not provide enough victory when visiting Olympique Lyonnais headquarters, in the first leg of the Champions League last 16 on Wednesday (20/2). Affirmed by the goalkeeper, Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Barca were not stressed because of the results.

Lowering his best squad, Barcelona just couldn’t do much. Ernesto Valverde’s side struggled to penetrate the Lyon defense in more than 90 minutes of the match. But attack after attack carried out by Lionel Messi and his friends always managed to be stopped by Lyon.

Seeing Barcelona can’t do much at Lyon’s, many who think of the Blaugrana – Barcelona’s nickname – experienced severe frustration after the game. But the news was immediately ignored by Ter Stegen. According to Ter Stegen who also appeared neatly guarding the Barcelona’s goal said his team was not frustrated. The German goalkeeper felt they only needed to reply in the second leg later.

“We really want more, but the results are fair enough for both teams, so we need to keep looking forward. Many matches must be contested and we obviously want to advance to the next round. We will do our best (in leg II), “said Ter Stegen, quoted from Marca.

“Of course we are confident because even though Lyon has a quality player, but we have strong attack power and are confident we can score a lot of goals later. We are not frustrated because we know what we have to do and our goal is to advance to the next round, “he said.
