The new bête noire threatening Barça in Europe

The moment of truth has arrived for Pere Romeu's Barça. The Blaugrana kick off their Champions League semi-finals against Chelsea this Sunday on Johan (6 p.m., TV3). The reigning champions, led by Aitana and Alexia, who between them have won the last four Ballon d'Or awards, face one of the most strengthened projects to snatch their European crown. The trophy cabinet supports Barça—three Champions League titles, the last two consecutive, and five finals—while the Londoners have only managed to reach one final, in 2021, where they were thrashed by the Catalans.
