Barcelona secured a resounding 7-2 victory over Newcastle United in the second leg of the 2026 Champions League Round of 16.
Although the first half was evenly matched, ending with Barça leading 3-2, Newcastle faded, allowing Barcelona to surge forward in the second half and score four goals.
The truly interesting statistic is Barcelona’s knack for scoring seven goals against English managers at the Camp Nou!
The last time an English manager visited the Camp Nou was Gary Neville, then managing Valencia, when Los Che suffered a humiliating 7-0 defeat.
Today, 10 years and one month later, Eddie Howe became the first English manager to visit the Camp Nou, only to suffer another seven-goal defeat!
With an aggregate score of 8-3, Barcelona secured their place in the quarterfinals.
