Regarding Richard’s email about Arteta and playing with 10 men at 90+1min, Steve writes:
“Find this a bit of a weird observation from Richard considering Arsenal aren’t playing in this match, they’ve yet to play a game with ten men this season, and Barça lost. But all the best regardless.â€
Diego Simeone will be very happy with that second goal by Sorloth. It was so simply worked, but smart with it.
And the free-kick by Alvarez was stunning. That was a cracking evening of footie all round, really.
Official: Barcelona starting lineup against Atletico Madrid | UEFA Champions League
In a little over an hour, FC Barcelona will take on Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals at the Spotify Camp Nou.
Ahead of kickoff, Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has announced the starting lineup for the match, with a couple of notable changes made to the team that took the field against the same opponents on Saturday in La Liga.
Robert Lewandowski, for one, returns to the starting XI, occupying the No. 9 position after his match-winning goal off the bench against Atletico at the weekend.
It sees Dani Olmo moving back to the No. 10 position, with Fermin Lopez dropping to the bench after a minor injury scare during training earlier today.

The international break is over and spring has sprung, with the big European leagues giving us plenty to talk about.
We'll begin in LaLiga, where Barcelona took advantage of a second-string Atlético Madrid team to win 2-1 and take charge of the title race in the wake of Real Madrid's shocking last-gasp defeat in Mallorca. Barca's lead is now seven points with eight games to play, though Atleti will be a much tougher test for them when the two sides also meet in the Champions League quarterfinals, which begin this week.
