Looking Ahead To The UEFA Champions League Round Of 16

The 2016-17 UEFA Champions League Round of 16 draw took place early Monday morning in Nyon, Switzerland and left us with some very entertaining match ups:

Justin Bieber Joins Neymar And Rafinha On The Pitch

Check out what happened when Justin Bieber dropped in at Camp Nou to play some football with Neymar. He is actually pretty good (maybe not surprisingly after we uncovered this video of him juggling with Neymar earlier this year).

Given that Neymar and Bieber appear to be fast friends, we expect to see more Bieber soccer highlights soon.

Creció junto a Messi y debutó con él, pero ni siquiera Oriol Riera puede explicar su grandeza.

Oriol Riera, en el buen sentido, ha tenido una muy buena carrera profesional. Ha logrado éxitos en las divisiones inferiores de España con clubes como el Cultural Leonesa y el Alcorcón, y se ha asegurado su papel como delantero trabajador en la Liga con temporadas en el Osasuna, su actual club, y en el Deportivo de La Coruña.

Sin embargo, la historia siempre recordará mejor a Riera como la respuesta a una oscura trivialidad de pubs, ya que Riera debutó en el Barça junto a un chico de 16 años que estaba haciendo su propio estreno, un tal Lionel Messi.

FC Barcelona Invite Chapecoense To Play In A Preseason Friendly

FC Barcelona have confirmed through their official Twitter page that they’ve invited Brazilian club Chapecoense to play in the 2017 Gamper Trophy, an annual preseason friendly match held in August at Barca’s Camp Nou stadium.

According to the club, the match “aims to help with the reconstruction of [Chapecoense]” following the tragic airplane accident which claimed the lives of 71 people, including 19 of Chapecoense’s players.

Neymar And Ronaldo Are The Two Most Business Savvy Players In The Game

Are you a Neymar fan? Are you an even bigger Cristiano Ronaldo fan? Is it your dream to get something signed by your favorite star? Well, it can certainly happen...for a price. The Spanish newspaper El Confidential revealed that Neymar and Ronaldo recently signed several stickers for their fans. But did you know they are making a small fortune on every single autograph they sign?

Barca Set A UCL Record By Attempting Nearly 1,000 Passes Against Gladbach

The school of Barcelona detests the characterization of tiki-taka when discussing their style of play, so let’s just say that Barca passed the s*** out of Gladbach when the two teams met on Tuesday in the Champions League.

One of the reasons that this conception of zonal play is met with such derision from the likes of Pep Guardiola and Luis Enrique is the fact that it denotes an attack devoid of entertainment and sterile in the extreme.

Shakira Was Probably The Best Part Of El Clasico

Saturday’s El Clasico was by no means a classic. However, as is always the case in a match which puts the world at a standstill for 90 minutes, there was no shortage of drama, intrigue and passion. No one spectator better embodied the competitive tension that reverberated around the Camp Nou than Gerard Pique’s partner Shakira.

With Lionel Messi and Neymar both guilty of wasting good chances for Barca, it was Luis Suarez who opened the scoring in the 53rd minute.
