Fc Barcelona U19 Team Celebrating Goals Against Borussia Dortmund Uefa Youth League

FC Barcelona‘s U19 team has secured their place in the knockout stages of the UEFA Youth League after a thrilling 3-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund. The match, held at the Dortmund Brackel Training Ground, saw Barcelona come from behind twice to clinch the win.

The game began with Borussia Dortmund taking the lead just before halftime through a corner kick converted by Ousmane Diallo. However, Barcelona equalized early in the second half with a fine finish from Jan Virgili. Dortmund re-established their lead through Mussa Kaba, but Barcelona’s resilience paid off as they scored two crucial goals from corners. Landry Farré headed in the equalizer in the 65th minute, and Leonard Saca sealed the victory with a header in the 82nd minute.

This win ensures Barcelona will have home advantage in the single-leg round of 16 against one of the teams that finished 17th to 22nd in the table, which includes Celtic, Borussia Dortmund, Liverpool, Lille, Dinamo Zagreb, or Monaco.

The match highlighted the tactical prowess and determination of the Barcelona U19 team, who created most of the chances, particularly down the left flank. Despite trailing twice, they managed to turn the game around with decisive set pieces.
