Barça struggled with crosses, over-relying on the offside trap. Dortmund capitalized with midfield runs, leading to their penalty and second goal. 🚷 The trap needs adjustment, marking late runners instead of relying solely on positioning.⤵️

Ferran’s pace and finishing turned the game with two goals, while FDJ struggled to impact buildup. Gavi might’ve been a better option. Flick’s structural pressing adjustments need improvement, as intensity alone couldn’t stop Dortmund’s advances.
