Neymar calls PSG belting the best game he’s EVER played
It was Suarez’s 65th goal in 64 appearances Camp Nou appearances.
At the post-match conference, Gerard Pique, who became an auxiliary forward as Barca pushed for the victor said, “Hospitals need to hire more nurses in the next 9 months because tonight a lot of lovemaking will be happening”.
Trailing 4-0 from the first leg in France, Barca scored three times late on at the Nou Camp to snatch a remarkable 6-1 win on the night and progress to the quarter-finals 6-5 on aggregate.
Barcelona only had five minutes to find a victor and complete the ideal fairy tale or watch PSG walk into the quarter finals on their expense. “I threw myself at the ball with everything I had”, said the midfielder. “Sometimes miracles do happen and this was the impossible”. Others will, though, with Gerard Piqué adding: “There will be a lot of love made tonight”.
“We never stopped believing, even the fans, who are normally the most pessimistic”. The match dominated social media with a staggering 1.9 million tweets published over three hours, and 85,000 sent in a single minute as the game-winning sixth goal went in. “It’s a lesson for life – there is always a way”.
At one stage of the game Barca were 200/1 in-play to qualify for the next round! “We knew we could sow doubts in our opponents if we scored early”.
“When we believe and we play like this it’s very hard to stop Barca”.
“It was then a matter of doing it around the PSG game, but after the 4-0, Luis Enrique decided that he didn’t want to do it after the fixture – so that it didn’t appear to be linked”. The last to do so was Barcelona’s bitter rivals Real Madrid more than 30 years ago.
“I don’t think anybody stopped believing”, Luis Enrique said.
“This victory is dedicated to all Barca fans, but especially those that had faith in their team even after a day in which they were clearly outplayed by a team like PSG”. “This win is dedicated to them”. It’s clearly for insane people.
As for PSG, how about this for a statistic.
Mathieu has now suggested that such triumphalism not only angered his Barcelona teammates, but inspired them to turn the tie on its head and complete an incredible 6-5 aggregate comeback.
