The 2025\/26 Champions League campaign comes to an end for Bar\u00e7a following elimination against<\/a> Atl\u00e9tico Madrid in the quarter-finals. A tough tie in which the team were the better side across both legs, but Atl\u00e9tico\u2019s efficiency and know-how ultimately proved decisive.<\/p>\n

With the European adventure now over, here\u2019s a look at the key stats from Bar\u00e7a\u2019s Champions League campaign:<\/p>\n

12 games played<\/p>\n

Bar\u00e7a bow out having played 12 matches across the league phase, the round of 16 and the quarter-finals, with no need to navigate the play-off round.<\/p>\n

Bar\u00e7a recorded seven wins (five in the league phase, plus second-leg victories against Newcastle and Atl\u00e9tico), two draws (against Club Brugge in the league phase and Newcastle in the first leg of the round of 16), and three defeats (against PSG and Chelsea in the league phase, and Atl\u00e9tico in the first leg of the quarter-finals).<\/p>\n

Lamine Yamal most used<\/p>\n

With 874 minutes played, Lamine Yamal was Hansi Flick\u2019s most used player in the competition. He is followed by Jules Kound\u00e9 (868), Joan Garc\u00eda (802), Ferm\u00edn Lopez (801), and Gerard Mart\u00edn (791).<\/p>\n

32 goals<\/p>\n

Averaging 2.67 goals per game, Bar\u00e7a once again demonstrated their attacking strength, scoring 32 goals in total (25 from inside the box and 6 from outside).<\/p>\n

14 were scored with the right foot, 13 with the left, and 4 headers. The remaining goal was an own goal by Tzolis (Club Brugge) in the 3-3 draw at the Jan Breydel Stadium.<\/p>\n

Bar\u00e7a also converted four penalties this season: three from Lamine Yamal and one from Raphinha.<\/p>\n

Ferm\u00edn and Lamine top the scoring<\/p>\n

The 32 goals were widely shared, but Lamine Yamal and Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez led the way with six goals each, followed closely by Marcus Rashford with 5.<\/p>\n

Robert Lewandowski scored 4, while Raphinha and Ferran Torres added 3 each. Kound\u00e9 (2), and Olmo and Bernal (1 each), complete the list, alongside Tzolis\u2019 own goal.<\/p>\n

Notably, Lamine Yamal became the youngest player ever<\/a> to register at least ten goal involvements in a single Champions League campaign (6 goals and 4 assists at 18 years and 275 days).<\/p>\n

20 goals conceded<\/p>\n

Defence is an area for improvement. Bar\u00e7a conceded an average of 1.67 goals per game and failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their 12 matches. That’s something to address in future editions.<\/p>\n

24 yellows 3 reds<\/p>\n

Bar\u00e7a received 24 yellow cards across their 12 matches, with Lamine Yamal (4) and Frenkie de Jong (3) the most booked.<\/p>\n

There were also three red cards. Ronald Ara\u00fajo was sent off against Chelsea (44th minute) in the league phase. The other two came in the quarter-final tie against Atl\u00e9tico: Pau Cubars\u00ed saw red in the first leg (44th minute), and Eric Garc\u00eda was sent off in the return leg (79th minute).<\/p>\n

Youngest team ever<\/p>\n

Bar\u00e7a\u2019s youthful squad once again underlined its potential. In the second leg against Atl\u00e9tico, with the team chasing a comeback, the starting XI became the youngest ever fielded by the club in a Champions League knockout tie.<\/p>\n

For the first time, the average age dropped below 25 (24.95) years.<\/p>\n

The line-up and the ages was: Joan Garc\u00eda (24), Cancelo (31), Gavi (21), Ferran (26), Pedri (23), Lamine Yamal (18), Ferm\u00edn (22), Gerard Mart\u00edn (24), Olmo (27), Kound\u00e9 (27) and Eric (25).<\/p>\n

It could have been even lower, as regular starter Pau Cubars\u00ed (19) was suspended.<\/p>\n

Top 8 again<\/p>\n

Since the introduction of the new Champions League format with a league phase, Bar\u00e7a have finished in the top eight in both editions.<\/p>\n

Last season, they finished second behind Liverpool with 19 points (6 wins, 1 draw, 1 defeat). This season, they ended fifth with 16 points (5 wins, 1 draw, 2 defeats).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 2025\/26 Champions League campaign comes to an end for Bar\u00e7a following elimination against Atl\u00e9tico Madrid in the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5293,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[92,483],"class_list":{"0":"post-5292","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-barcelona","8":"tag-barcelona","9":"tag-text"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5292","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5292"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5292\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5293"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5292"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5292"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5292"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
