Barcelona, who played on Tuesday, waited to see who their next opponent was after becoming the first team to qualify for the next phase logically due to the early kick-off on Tuesday.
On the expected night, Barcelona discovered their next rivals against their dream of taking the crown after Borussia Dortmund won Lille and secured their place in the quarterfinal.
The Blaugrana will face another familiar adversary, Borussia Dortmund, whom they defeated 3-2 in the League Phase in December.
Despite meeting in December, there is a change in the Dortmund team that the Catalans will face next month. Since then, the Germans have changed managers, replacing Nuri Sahin with Niko Kovac on the bench.
As a result, the forthcoming quarterfinal match will be particularly memorable for both teams’ coaches, who have previously collaborated.
As Mundo Deportivo reports, the new BVB boss stressed his friendship with the Barcelona manager as he addressed the press after winning 2-1 against French club Lille to advance to the UCL: “It’s nice because we worked together—he was my assistant—and now we will compete against each other.”
The Dortmund coach also hailed Barcelona’s squad, saying, “It’s a great club, a great team, with fantastic players.”
Before thinking about the clash next month, Barcelona will have to shift their attention to the La Liga fixture on Saturday as they face another familiar face in a title race challenge.
