Today, Barcelona is playing away against Monaco in the first round of the Champions League, and the match began disastrously for the Catalans.
Details: By the 10th minute, Barcelona's central defender Eric García received a red card for a last-man foul. The Spanish player was trying to correct a major mistake made by Marc-André ter Stegen, who delivered an ill-fated pass to him.
This red card became the fastest in Barcelona's history in the Champions League. The top three are as follows:
- 10' Eric García (Monaco – Barcelona, 2024)
- 17' Amor (Barcelona – Sparta, 1991)
- 29' Ronald Araújo (Barcelona – PSG, 2023)
Reminder: Today, Lamine Yamal became the record holder for the most Champions League appearances by a player under 18 years old.
