03.03.2021, 08:20 GROUP B REVIEW: Catalan side easily defeat Motor to break another Champions League record |
||
The start was a bit weaker than expected, but from minute 15 to minute 40, Barça put the pedal to the metal against Motor and won a one-sided match to finish the group phase with a clean record. The 42:34 victory - the highest score of the group phase up until now – means that Barça only finished one of 14 group matches with fewer than 30 goals scored (29:25 against Kiel); that they netted 40 goals or more four times in the group phase; and that they scored a total of 505 goals, an average of 36 strikes per match. GROUP B
Another Barça record in the Champions League They are the record winners with eight trophies, they are by far the best team in the All-Time ranking of the competition, and they are record holders in numbers of finals and participations at the EHF FINAL4. Now Barça hold another record, becoming the first team to win all 14 group matches since the introduction of the eight-team group phase in 2015/16. Last season, they lost to Szeged in round 1 before winning the following 13 games, meaning they have now won 27 group matches in a row. TEXT: EHF / Björn Pazen |
