R.Koeman: "Man City" has no chance against "Barcelona" in the Champions League

Former "Barcelona" defender and current "Southampton" coach Ronald Koeman believes that "Manchester City" has no chance of eliminating the Catalans from the UEFA Champions League.

Next week in Europe, the Champions League quarterfinal matches will begin. The English champions will face off against the Spanish vice-champions, but R. Koeman does not expect a victory from the "City" team.

"Barcelona" is currently a better team than "Man City," - the Dutchman told the newspaper "Sport". - "Barca" has the advantage because the second leg will be played in their stadium."

"Whether "Barcelona" plays at home or away, this team is still the favorite. They never plan to just defend or try to destroy the opponent's attacks.

"Man City" is a great team and can compete with anyone, but I don't think this time they can beat "Barcelona," - added the "Southampton" coach.

The first quarterfinal match at the "Etihad" stadium between "Man City" and "Barca" will take place on February 24th.
