"Barcelona" successfully started the UEFA Champions League quarter-final series and on Wednesday away defeated "Manchester United" team with a score of 1:0. After the match, "Barca" defender Jordi Alba expressed his joy over the result and insisted that his team completely controlled the game. "It was a quite calm match between two well-organized teams. This is the Champions League and we tried not to make mistakes and played very good defensively. In attack, we also looked good. The result is a bit slippery, but an away goal and keeping a clean sheet satisfy us. We controlled every aspect of the game. We had the ball longer, handled well in aerial duels where opponents are very strong, as well as maintained balance and didn't let them counterattack. "We can be happy because it's not easy to win in this stadium. The second leg awaits, but now we have an advantage," said J. Alba after the match. The second leg match in Catalonia will be played on April 16th.
